“We loved the peaceful setting.”

Nora was a great host and filled us in on nearby walks. It was great to be beside a working farm and to hear the cows being milked. We will be returning there in the near future.

Mr Maple September 2020

“An Grianan is a beautifully situated cottage in the Clonakilty countryside.”

3 lovely bedrooms and 2 are en-suite which is perfect. There is also a main bathroom on the ground floor. A very spacious living room and kitchen for cosy nights in. The owners Nora & Andrew were perfect hosts and also invited us to watch the cows being milked. Would recommend.

Mr De Paoli January 2020

“Quiet house and landscape”

- Mr De Paoli, January 2020
Mr Smyth January 2020

“We had a lovely warm welcome and our hosts were great people.”

Nora brought us fresh eggs a few times which was so kind. The house was really nice apart from the furniture being a little uncomfortable in the living room and not many channels working on the TV. The area was stunning and we were able to go see the new born calves next door in the shed. All in all I would recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with great walks and beeches and local towns not far away. Oh and a lovely little pub just up the road .

Mrs Mcguire October 2019

“We had a great time The cottage was wonderful with friendly hosts who went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed ourselves The cottage has everything you need to feel at home.”

We had daily visits from the farm dog, saw milking time, got fresh eggs and enjoyed a little bit of rural paradise You will need a car! Highly recommended

- Dr Barton, May 2019
Ms Judges September 2018

“Cottage and owners ensured we had a lovely 2 day break - even though not far away.”

It is a very relaxing place but with the choices of plenty to see and do and with our dog as well. Hopefully will return for longer soon.

- Ms Judges, September 2018
Mrs Pedlow July 2018

“Had a brilliant week staying in this lovely cottage.”

Nora was so lovely and our children loved seeing the cows being milked and playing with Molly, the farm dog. A great base for exploring west Cork.

- Mrs Pedlow, July 2018
Mrs Atkins June 2018

“Although we only needed a cottage for two, we decided to go for something a little larger than we needed.”

We found that this plan worked as we had everything we needed - a beautiful cottage in a beautiful area, stunning countryside and views, close to towns in every direction with pubs for food, the ability to cook in the cottage if we wanted to, good tv channels and friendly owners - not to mention our visitor, Molly, the dog! Visit the Michael Collins House in Clonakilty, the Famine Centre in Skibbereen, the strand a Inchydoney, and the pub looking over the sea in Glandore, and then plan to come back next year to do it all again.

- Mrs Atkins, June 2018
Miss Byrne June 2018

“Tranquil area where the cottage was ideal for exploring.”

The owners were informative and knowledgable would recommend to others.

- Miss Byrne, June 2018
Mr Mc Keever May 2018

“The house was very isolated and could have been cleaner as when we arrived we had to clean up a lot of cobwebs and also in the shower room we had to clean the shower water outlet which was blocked solid with hairs and water was building up in shower.”

As for the location and mileage from Clonakilty and shops Etc. this was completely inaccurate. In all this was a nice two story house situated in a rural farming area with no amenities available within 8 miles either side of the dwelling. Thanks

- Mr Mc Keever, May 2018
Mr Handford July 2016

“This cottage is positioned near a farm and we found it very pleasing and relaxing.”

Overall we had a nice holiday.

- Mr Handford, July 2016
Mr McDonough May 2016

Mr Delaney July 2014

“The location and surroundings, was lovely place to relax and just 15 minutes from the coast at Rosscarberry and 20 minutes from the lovely town of Clonakilty.”

The scenery was amazing and the people in the area and the family who own the property were so welcoming and friendly. This is without doubt one of the nicest places in Ireland

- Mr Delaney, July 2014
Mr Matkin April 2014

“We used this property as a base for visiting the South West of Ireland.”

To that end it was ideally located. The property was clean, tidy and comfortable to be in. It is within good striking distance of Clonakilty, Skibereen, Mizen Head etc. If you like cows there are plenty to see and hear because this cottage is right next to the owner's working farm. First class accommodation; we would go back again.

- Mr Matkin, April 2014
