Quality Accommodation with a Spectacular Sea View

Built on an elevated site with a landscaped garden, The Haven faces west with uninterrupted views of the Atlantic Ocean from the kitchen, living room and all upstairs bedrooms. It is furnished and maintained to a high standard.

Located between the lively market town of Skibbereen and the picturesque village of Castletownshend, it is the perfect base from which to enjoy the best that West Cork has to offer.

The blue flag beach of Tragumna is a 700-meter walk from the house, as is the welcoming pub, The Skibbereen Eagle. It is open 7 days a week from 5pm until late and serves good food 5 days a week at peak season, and at weekends during the off season.

Skibbereen, which is 8 km away, has a good choice of pubs, restaurants and shops, along with an 18-hole golf course, a heritage centre and a farmers’ market on Saturdays.

There is plenty to do in the area, whale watching and sea kayaking are only a 15-minute drive. Along this section of the Wild Atlantic Way, there are a number of delightful coastal villages such as Castletownshend, Union Hall and Glandore where you can enjoy superb restaurants. At nearby Baltimore, you can catch a ferry to the islands of Sherkin and Cape Clear, or take a trip to the Fastnet Rock.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a safe.
