Come and relax in an area of outstanding beauty. Walk straight out onto the mountain tracks and soak up the timeless, untamed nature of the Beara Way, a national walking / cycling route of 200km.
Situated at the tip of the Beara peninsula, Allihies is a colourful village of unspoiled beauty, steeped in history, rugged coastline, hidden coves, remote mountain valleys and lakes; perfect for swimming, hiking, canoeing, fishing, riding, cycling, bird watching, stargazing or simply just relaxing.

Explore the local mining history and visit Allihies Copper Mine Museum.
Visit Dursey Island by Europes only cable car that crosses open seawater., or take a boat trip to explore the local islands.
Immerse yourself in the historic culture by visiting stone circles, fairy forts and wedge tombs, or simply relax and enjoy a Guinness and some traditional Irish music at one of the 3 village pubs.
I look forward to welcoming you to the Mountain Retreat.
