Informazioni su questa struttura

Splendida posizione sul faro con vista panoramica sull'oceano

Ci sono due parti nella proprietà ma sono una sola unità. Nel 1843 i Commissari del Faro, responsabili della sicurezza di quelli in mare, costruirono il faro di Crookhaven e il cottage adiacente. Arroccato sopra l'ingresso del porto naturale di Crookhaven, per oltre 160 anni il cottage ha riparato le famiglie dei Guardiani della Luce. Quando il Lighthouse è stato automatizzato per la prima volta (è ancora completamente operativo) i Commissari non avevano più bisogno dell'alloggio fornito dal cottage e la proprietà è cambiata di mano.

I nuovi proprietari hanno completamente rinnovato il cottage del 1843 e questa parte della proprietà comprende ora 2 camere matrimoniali con una camera aggiuntiva contenente un letto matrimoniale estraibile e una scala in un ampio spazio abitativo convertito da quelli che erano stati i quartieri di tre famiglie. Questo ampio soggiorno offre ampi posti a sedere, TV satellitare, DVD e vista in tutte le direzioni. Inoltre al piano inferiore si trova un bagno con doccia, cucina e zona pranzo. L'integrità strutturale del cottage del 1843 è stata preservata con la disposizione delle stanze al piano inferiore che riflette il piano originale.

Dall'altra parte del piccolo cortile c'è lo straordinario spazio pieno di luce che è la "casa lunga". Nel 2008 i proprietari hanno completato un progetto radicale costituito da un cuboide con pareti in vetro rettangolare appoggiato su due nuove camere da letto e un secondo bagno. Questa meravigliosa aggiunta consente una vista spettacolare dal livello superiore a 270 gradi. In un articolo di approfondimento sulla visita in Irlanda, US Airways Magazine (gennaio 2012, pagina 38, disponibile online) raccomanda la proprietà come un posto favoloso in cui soggiornare e afferma che se sogni una vista sull'oceano, questa proprietà è in cima alla lista "completa di piano- vetrate che rivelano le ipnotiche onde blu dell'Atlantico!

Il livello superiore contiene una cucina completamente attrezzata, un tavolo da pranzo per 8/10, un camino a legna, una TV ad alta definizione e un lettore di dischi Blu-ray insieme a comodi posti a sedere in tutto. Lungo la lunghezza di questo livello è un balcone da cui si deve vedere la vista per credere, che spazia dal porto naturale di Crookhaven oltre il famoso faro Fastnet 7 miglia al largo, a Baltimora, Cape Clear e Roaring Water Bay con le sue "100 isole".

Sebbene costruita su "Rock Island", questa non è una vera isola, almeno negli ultimi centinaia di anni. L'accesso avviene attraverso una bellissima strada "faro" con pareti in pietra che ondeggia attraverso i campi di erica e ginestra per circa un chilometro. A soli 2 km di distanza troverete Goleen con i suoi negozi, pub e ristorante di prima classe, Heron's Cove. Dall'altra parte della baia si trova il villaggio velico di Crookhaven, che per secoli è stato il primo scalo per le navi in arrivo dal Nuovo Mondo destinate al Nord Ovest dell'Europa.

In inverno c'è sempre un fuoco accogliente che ti aspetta lì al O'Sullivan's Bar e in estate una raffica di attività sul porto mentre marinai e battelli di tutte le età e nazionalità salpano o sbarcano alla ricerca di uno dei deliziosi bar di pesce e ristoranti sul lungomare.

Intorno alla baia successiva si trova la fine della penisola di Mizen con la sua costa frastagliata, la mecca del surf e le sabbie dorate di Barleycove Beach e alla fine della strada un miglio o due più avanti, la punta più a sud-ovest dell'Irlanda. Lì troverai un centro visitatori e spettacolari passeggiate lungo la costa rocciosa che conduce al ponte pedonale recentemente ricostruito e riaperto verso il faro di Mizen e la stazione del segnale di nebbia. Prossima fermata in America!

A causa della posizione della proprietà su una scogliera a picco sul mare, la proprietà potrebbe non essere adatta a bambini piccoli, se non sotto la costante supervisione di un adulto all'interno e senza la proprietà.

Stunning perch above Crookhaven bay

The Rock Island light is a one-of-a-kind venue. Where else can you see so closely seals and dolphins and people all frolicking in the same shimmering waves? The location was perfect for our tour, proximate both to gigs in Goleen and Schull AND Mizen gems like Barleycove and three castle head. We loved the mix of old light keeper’s cottage and modern Malibu style. Otherwise, communication with host was a breeze and all perks in good working order—greatly appreciated!Keep the light on for us, we’ll definitely be back!

Our overall experience was great, and the good weather didn’t hurt either.

The views from the Long Hose are absolutely beautiful, as are the other amenities. The only downside is the one car access road. When you meet another vehicle going in the opposite direction, someone has to back up a fair distance. There are stone walls on each side of the one lane road so you can’t pull over.

A welcome return to the fabulous lighthouse

We love this place. Last visited 8 years ago and the location and glass box living space is unsurpassable. 4 seasons in a day right outside your window. We will most definitely return again. The only comments we would make are that the kitchen equipment is in need of updating and adding to and 8 years on the shower room and facilities in the cottage could do with some renovation and improvement as there is a real difference on the sleeping and bathroom arrangements and comfort in the main house and in the cottage. Nothing though can detract from its location and the design of the living space.

Non mi è piaciuto: Check-in e comunicazione
Beautiful Spot, But Communication & Maintenance GapsLovely location and facilities, but our experience was marred by a stressful check-in. Despite being told to coordinate entry with the property manager, my three texts over a week went ignored. I arrived from Dublin with my 19-month-old to an empty house and no instructions on how to enter. After messaging the owner, the manager finally called, insisting she’d sent lockbox info (she hadn't). As a physician and property owner myself, I’m meticulous with my correspondence; the lack of communication was unprofessional and unnecessary.Cleanliness & Comfort:Arrival: We were greeted by a full dishwasher of clean dishes to put away.Hygiene: Found dried smears on toilet buttons and several insects/cobwebs in the cottage—signs of a space not thoroughly checked between guests.Heating: Early May evenings were quite chilly. While cottage space heaters worked, the fireplace and "boost" functions in the longhouse were ineffective. The extensive property manual revealed a complex 3 zone systemI messaged the owner privately upon checkout to share these concerns constructively. While previous interactions were lovely, the final response was disappointing—syrup-sweet yet dismissive. We chose not to involve the "on-call neighbor" during our stay as we prioritized family privacy over fussing with a stranger about heating. Great potential here, but the management, oversight and communication need significant improvement.

Incredible views

A modern glass wing and an old Victorian cottage make up this listing. As it was just my friend and me, we stayed in the modern glass wing and as we didn’t used the old Victorian cottage, this review is mainly about the modern part. Incredible views from the upstairs living room. The downstairs bedrooms have doors which open onto the courtyard. You fall asleep and wake to the sound of the ocean. The property was clean, although some of the upstairs seating and the general paintwork was just starting to feel a little tired. But that said, your eyes are taken to the stunning 270 degree views out to sea and across the peninsulas. The beds were comfy. The water was hot and the shower pressure was good. A couple of things to know. To reach the lighthouse you have to drive down a very narrow walled lane - amount a mile long ( at least it felt like a mile). I clipped the wing mirrors on our car twice - soooo before you go down the lane, bring your wing mirrors in, and if you’re renting a car, don’t rent a wide one. The second thing is that the modern wing is essentially a green house and on warm days, with the doors shut, the interior heats up (to 34 c !!) - even with the shades pulled down. We would return from a day out and fling open the doors. There is a small terrace and a gantry/balcony off the upper living room which a wonderful for enjoying the sea breezes. Beaches, walks, restaurants are all nearby. Would recommend.

Spectacular accommodation

Our overall experience staying at this location was a 10 out of 10. The facilities were magnificent and the view was simply stunning. From the very first contact with the owner on booking this exquisite accommodation to the very pleasant experience with Rose the caretaker made us feel right at home. Our family are originally from West Cork and all agree that this is perhaps the single most impressive accommodation location that they have ever experienced. I would highly recommend this property to anybody interested in experiencing Ireland in all of its glory. Thanks to Margaret for allowing us the opportunity to stay in your spectacular property. We will book again, that is a certainty.

This property and its location actually exceeds the pictures and description online; it is a spectacular venue in and out and I would love to go back! It has everything you might require for home from home comforts, the views of and exposure to the sea are second to none. The lighthouse fils the West wing window and the sunrise the east. It’s a special place without a doubt.

Quality-time in bester Lage

Wir sind mit acht Erwachsenen gereist und hatten ausreichend Platz. Es gibt vier Doppelzimmer plus Ausweichmöglichkeit! Das Haus war sauber und komplett eingerichtet. Es fehlte an nichts. Die Abwicklung war toll und unkompliziert. Atemberaubend war die Lage. Durch die großen Fensterfronten hatten wir stets Blick auf's Wasser. Das einzig schwierige war, dass wir mit einem Neunsitzer unterwegs waren und die Zufahrt zum Leuchtturm eine sehr lange (ca 800m) und sehr schmale Zufahrt ist. Tipp: Lieber ein kleines Auto mieten!!

The accommodation perfectly meets the expectations raised by the pictures on the Internet. The apartments are located on Rock Island at the entrance to Crookhaven harbour. You can experience the wind and surf directly and enjoy the view of Fastnet Rock from the terrace outside. Mizen Head, Garinish Island and other sights can be explored from there. It was just great and we would like to come back again soon.

Amazing experience

My family of five had an incredible week at the lighthouse. We easily found activities and day trips in this area of Cork that we loved, as well as friendly people and some great food, but we all looked forward to returning to the lighthouse each afternoon. My husband found everything he needed in the kitchen to cook most nights, and the house was full of board games and books. We found that almost all activities are exciting and relaxing when undertaken in a glass room overlooking the ocean! The area around the house had so many stunning views and places to explore, and the many wildflowers were just gorgeous. After a week’s stay, none of us were ready to leave, and my six-year-old has hatched a few schemes to get back that involve ponies. A few things to know: you do absolutely need a car, and we (Americans used to roomy cars, roomy roads, and driving on the right) found the roads challenging in general and the long narrow lane lined with rock walls to reach the house really difficult. We had the hang of it by the end of the week, but kept a policy of only leaving and returning once each day, with 4-5 minutes of silence in the car so the driver could give full attention to getting us in or out and we could all hope that we wouldn’t meet a car going the opposite direction (which luckily, we didn’t). It was beyond worth it to stay in such an amazing place but definitely a consideration for planning. Also, there are a number of businesses that only take cash, and the closest ATM is in Schull. In terms of safety, after establishing some ground rules, we felt like the setup was perfect for our 6, 9, and 12-year-olds to enjoy, but it would have been tough to relax with, say, a strong-willed, climbing 4-year-old. Our stay at the lighthouse made for an unforgettable family trip. We feel so lucky to have been there.

Perfect

We spent a really enjoyable break over Christmas with my sisters family and parents who live on the other side of the harbour who joined us for Christmas celebrations. Thank you for the Christmas decorations you added. The accommodation split over the two lighthouse keepers cottages suited us very well as our older independent children had their own space. The location is stunning, the views inspirational and the house is cosy, stylish and was very well equipped for our needs, even the walled single lane track from the main road revealed a stunning view at every turn. Plenty to do here in winter. Who wouldn't enjoy relaxing, playing board games, reading, walking (Brow Head, Barleycove beach, Three Castles Head pier, the old mountain road to Goleen) watching the wild life and whiling away time in pubs. We all wished we could have had more time at the lighthouse but even so, our short stay was very recuperative. A car is a must. Thank you for letting us stay.

4/10 Scarso

Needs much improvement

We were a group of 8 who stayed for 2 weeks. 4 adults, 3 infants and a small child. Upon arrival we found the property very dirty. Dust buildup, spider webs in light fixtures, grease covered kitchen, and unusable dishes in the kitchen due to being dirty. Our initial disappointment was only to grow as throughout our stay we found lamps with no light bulbs, broken barbecue grill, and kitchen cabinets in disrepair, such that it was difficult to open or close them due to this damage. The furnishings are completely sat through and are in need of being replaced. This is a unique property with difficult challenges to maintain. We fully understand that. However, having to spend a portion of your vacation cleaning a rental that you have paid so much for was an enormous wet blanket on our trip. This is by far the most we have ever spent on a vacation rental and had high expectations. It is with much regret to say that we could not recommend this property. At least not in the current state it is in. We had addressed several of these issues with the owner and property manager and they were sympathetic. That being said, the damage was done and we really hope these concerns are seriously addressed because the views are stunning.

Dear Steffen H., We have read your review. We are disappointed that you have taken the opportunity to criticise the property in ways that you never brought to our attention during your stay. Three days after your arrival you emailed me and I contacted the local manager who immediately attended at the property to address any concerns that you might have. After our manager had attended with you (twice in two days to make sure that you were thoroughly satisfied), she offered (without cost to you) to provide extra cleaning services and linen changes during your stay but you declined this offer. I specifically asked you to contact me if there were any other concerns or queries. You did not get back to me during the remainder of your two week stay but waited until you were home to post the above review. Notwithstanding the two or three issues that you had brought to my attention at the beginning of your stay, for which I then apologised and now do so again, I am afraid that the tenor of your criticisms must be completely rejected. The kitchen cabinets are not in a state of disrepair. They all close as they were designed to do, and always have. The furniture is of excellent quality and is very comfortable. Electric light bulbs sometimes blow and there are plenty of spare bulbs left available. Our local manager offered to show you how to light the barbecue grill but you declined her offer saying that you did not need it. It works perfectly. A spider can spin a web in a matter of hours but the image you paint would lead the reader to expect to be greeted, upon arrival, by Mrs. Havisham of Great Expectations! In the days immediately before your arrival you contacted me with a list of requests (including a request for 3 x baby high chairs and 3 x baby-cots for three babies, each under 1 year old). We were surprised that we had not been made aware, at time of booking, that the ‘4 children’ in your party would consist of three babies and a 3 year old toddler, especially given the nature and location of our lighthouse property and the warning on our vrbo page that ‘the property may not be suitable for small children’. Still we made every effort to accommodate these requests. We would kindly ask the reader to read through some (or all) of the other 34 reviews on this page (including those posted in the weeks prior to the one under reply) and to make his or her own mind up about the fairness or otherwise of this review.

Tremendous getaway

I recently spent a week at the Crookhaven Lighthouse property with my family who joined me from the US. We had a fabulous experience from start to finish. The property manager met us at the house as arranged and made us feel very welcome. The stunning scenery, paired with the beautiful accommodations and terrific local people in Goleen and Crookhaven who made us feel right at home, all contributed to an outstanding stay. The longhouse and cottage are both well-equipped with everything you need and the furniture upstairs in the amazing "glass room" is very comfortable. We marveled at seeing Fastnet Lighthouse from "our" lighthouse and if you didn't move from that spot all week, you'd go home happy. However, there are such gorgeous spots to visit in the area, we were glad we ventured to nearby Mizen Head, Barleycove Beach and Three Castle Head, not to mention a breathtaking afternoon at the stunning Sheep's Head Bay, with sweeping views of Bantry and Dunmanus. All of the local restaurants we ate in were great (service and food) and I highly recommend the baked goods at Along the Way, the cafe up the road in the village. We had wonderful walks right from the property and since it was early in the season, we felt like we were the only people out there. It's truly an inspiring place if you want to write, take photos, connect with family and friends, or just get away from it all. The only small criticism we had is of the mattresses in the long house, which are in need of updating. Other than that we had a perfect stay and we would definitely recommend it and book again. I've had many wonderful trips to Ireland over the years, but this one is at the top of the list.

Hi Kerri, Thank you for your magnificent review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at the Lighthouse property. We are also very grateful to you for your suggestion that the mattresses in the Longhouse are in need of updating. We have taken your suggestion on board and have ordered new mattresses.

Spectacular views in a very special property

We had an unforgettable Christmas in this most beautiful place. Gannets fishing right outside our windows, three walls of glass make you feel you're right in the middle of the view - all with underfloor heating, big comfy sofas and a brilliant kitchen. Only small criticism is mattresses are not great in the bedrooms ... Highly recommended nonetheless. There's a cute village within walking distance which has a couple of bars and a very well stocked shop. Peaceful, beautiful countryside all around and a view of Fastnet lighthouse which is just magical. Plenty of lovely walks and drives, and only a couple of hours drive from Cork. We LOVED it.
