魅力的なビクトリア朝の家

We are an Irish-French-Dutch family who loves spending time in Ireland. It is such a relaxing and refreshing atmosphere compared to our buzzing life in busy cities.
What we most particularly love is enjoying a glass of wine with a great meal in the house, after a day of golf and walking and running!
We hope you will enjoy the house as much as we do!

I love being in Cobh as it is a central point for many relaxing activities that you will enjoy during your stay, whether it is for a week-end, a week or more, here are some ideas on what you can do (and that we enjoy doing also):
- Golf – Cobh Golf Club is located 3km from the house, which also features one of the most picturesque Par 3 in the country, and island green with the harbour in the distance. I can arrange Green Fees "at the drop of a hat" for Cobh Golf Club. If you want to do a Golf Tour, you also have very nearby the Fota Golf Club, and Cork Golf Club. The Old Head of Kinsale is easily accessible also.
- Walking and Running: you have various routes that you can walk or run on the island! From sea-side walks to countryside walks, via wood walks, there are plenty of choices!
- Fishing – depending on the time of the year, you will be able to fish different ways!
- Spa – why not pampering you in the Fota Spa?
- Restaurants & Pubs – you cannot stay in Ireland without going into a traditional Irish Pub, and in Cobh you will be spoiled with choices! The best pint of Guinness for us is at the Roaring Donkey on top of the hill!
- Discovering – the Titanic and the Lusitania have marked the town, and to discover the history, you can visit the Museum, walk the trail and rest in the Memorial Garden.
- Boat trip – take a boat tour to Spike Island. The multi-cultural island has hosted a monastery, a fortress and a prison within its 104 acres, all of which have left their mark.
- And of course, plenty of activities for children: the Fota Zoo, Cuskinny court adventure park, swimming pool, playgrounds across the town, they will enjoy their time in Cobh also!

One of the reasons why I love this house is that it carries a lot of history. My husband is born on this hill and has a lot of nice memories from these houses. Now that we have our own family, I love the relaxing atmosphere we have created in the house. We enjoy having a glass of wine with friends and a good dinner in the house, after a day with Golf, walk and running!
The other reason I love the house is that it is big and spacious! You can have a lot of people in the house, and still have some privacy, due to the 2 bathrooms, the living space, the large kitchen space, etc. It is a well organised house.
But mostly, I enjoy coming to Ireland as it is a relaxing, wild atmosphere, away from our busy lives in busy cities...
Our objective is for you to enjoy as much the house as the area! And we will be very happy to help organizing your stay and also helping you during your stay!
