Monthly Rentals in Ballynacarriga

We loved our stay at Eamonn's place for 5 nights. Drinagh is a quiet village but a perfect location to explore west Cork and close enough also to Cork city and the general east and west of the county. The sea, the local sights and the peninsulas are all within a short drive. We loved it as a family of five. Eamonn is a perfect host. The fridge was full of food for breakfast when we arrived and the kitchen is full of condiments. Also, we had a bag of firewood and some coal for the fire. Eamonn is a great host and was always available to our needs. And if you need a beer in the evening, his bar is literally next door. We highly recommend the house.

The stay at Teresa's place was great: impeccable cleanliness and hospitality! The place is surrounded by greenery and in a very quiet location.

We just spent 3 nights at Bridgeview Cottage and honestly wish it had been longer! Grace was very communicative and helpful and left fresh scones, butter, jam and milk which we enjoyed. The house is beautifully finished, spacious and airy. The setting is peaceful - lots of trees, nice views across the green valley and quiet apart from the sound of birdsong. The hot tub was a welcome bonus and was ready to use from the time we arrived which was a thoughtful touch. The house is nice and close to Clonakilty and many shops and services. The only remotely negative thing I would say (for other guests benefit) is that the spiral stairs have pointy bits on which my clothes go caught on almost every time I went down them, so just to be aware I'm case of snags! Aside from that a perfect few days and we would love to come back, we barely scratched the surface of what West Cork has to offer!

We stopped for a couple of nights as we were going to see a band in Leap. We struggled a little to find it in the dark, rain and fog but that was more because we'd been travelling all day and were tired and hungry, not due to Dan's instructions, his communication was excellent. It was very late when we arrived and Dan had lit the woodburner so the place was warm and it had everything we needed, efficient cooker, comfy bed and great shower. Fresh eggs for breakfast the next day was a real bonus. It was perfectly quiet and private and although we were mainly there to see the band, it was also a great location for starting to explore the area which was beautiful. A very civilised check out time of 11.00am was great too! I would thoroughly recommend Dan's place but don't really want it to be fully booked next time we come to go to Connolly's!
