A peaceful and quiet base for your outdoor fun
Easy check in, good communication, spacious home, functional bright kitchen and sitting room, close to great hiking trails, gardens and towns, best tasting water in Ireland ( probably), for your bike ride or hike. Nature at your doorstep. Overall a great stop on our month long holiday in Ireland.

Perfect Place to Decompress and Recharge In The Most Magical Setting
The River House is a beautiful house in a wonderful and enchanted location. The house is spacious with good amenities and is comfortable to live in.We loved the fact that we could take a myriad of different walks from the house either through beautiful woodland or to the top of a mountain. Each walk enabled us to enjoy nature - from trees and plants to goats, birds and even deer. The setting and the house itself are both excellent but what differentiates this property is the level of service provided both by the host who was immensely responsive and helpful and by the house caretakers who responded to an unforeseen power cut by driving up to the house with litres of fresh water and a flask of hot water so that we could enjoy hot drinks until the power company fixed the fault - and then followed up to see if we were ok. We have stayed in many beautiful holiday homes across Europe and the US but never have we felt the peace that we experienced here. The house is set up for families and I am sure it would be great but I would also highly recommend a stay here for couples who want to truly get away from it all.

Excellent stay.
Lovely house in such a beautiful and peaceful location. We even had deer in the garden! Excellent communication from Paul the owner. Well equipped, clean and comfortable. Fabulous walks in the area and lovely Pooleen pool to swim. Glengariff is not far with a small selection of pubs and restaurants. Bantry a bit further down the road but has a larger selection. We will return!

Great holiday!
We had a lovely week at this property outside Glengarriff with our three teenagers. The house is in a fantastic location for walks, well off the beaten track and still just a 5 minute drive from the village. Well placed to visit Kenmare, Bantry and the Beara peninsula. Would definitely be happy to return.

Great house in a beautiful setting. Lovely to sit outside listening to the flowing river and birdsong very relaxing. The house was well equipped we had everything we needed and plenty of space and was very comfortable. Glengarriff has plenty of pubs and a few eating places we used Jacks restaurant most of the time serving fresh fish daily. A trip to Garinish island is a must! A fantastic holiday we thoroughly enjoyed it. Owner was very helpful with any request we had.

A piece of paradise
The instructions to get to the property were good. The house itself was very clean and had everything you could think of. The surroundings are beautiful and my dog was living her best life here! Poolen forest down the road was lovely for swimming in for kids and dogs and safe. Overall this house gets 5 stare from us. We hope to be back.

Beautiful and tranquil location.
Property was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Paul and Bernie were great to deal with. Extremely helpful at all times. Amazing location, so peaceful. River at end of garden to explore and rocks to climb which kids loved. Pooleen lake just down the road which is magical for swimming and exploring. Absolutely amazing stay. Will definitely be back again.

A quiet comfortable country idyll
We all enjoyed our stay here during July’s unusually Mediterranean like weather, nestling just beyond the edge of the Glengarriff Nature Reserve, surrounded by tumbling countryside, forestry and native wildlife, we had very little or no complaints. A bright modern home, with plenty of room and all mod cons. A great location to take in the Beara peninsula whether it be on foot, by bike or car. Not to mention Glengarriff town, the nature reserve, Pooleen Woods, Barley Lake and the quiet country surrounds themselves. Be warned that you need rely on your own mobile data connection for internet but even this was capable enough (3G only speeds with mobile phone mounted as high as possible toward the externalities) so even the kids still managed to get their daily YouTube fix ! I can recommend this property without hesitation.
