Further details indoors:
The living room is without doubt a feature of the Eagles Nest. A large vaulted ceiling with three large
windows and a 3.5 metre sliding door provide natural lighting from all directions. Views from these large glass panels sweep spectacularly over the Atlantic Ocean, the expansive cliffs protecting the Irish coastline from its often wild and spectacular waters, ancient islands scattered along the coast, the secluded and tranquil harbour of Tragumna Bay with its Blue Flag Beach and then further inland to the rolling mountains and hills of Ireland's famous West Cork scenery. Indeed, taking this in with your first morning coffee will have you convinced there is no need to leave the home to see more of Ireland!
A large stone feature wall inside the living room, with an inlaid LCD Television CD/DVD player, sat TV, a large leather couch and a cosy multi fuel fireplace, all tastefully selected and set amongst other carefully selected pieces of imported furniture will leave you wanting nothing as you relax in your home. The kitchen was completely replaced in the modernization project, the end result is a fully equipped, state of the art cooking environment comprising of ivory coloured cabinetry, a hardwood teak worktop with integrated appliances, a large fridge/freezer with integrated ice dispenser and cold water tap, a 5 ring gas stove top and chrome appliances.
Eagles Nest comprises of 3 bedrooms, one King sized bed with en suite, one queen sized bed and the third room is a twin. 2 of the bedrooms have their own sliding door which leads on the the large decking and outdoor jacuzzi area.
Further details outdoors:
Stretching out of the living room and two of the bedrooms, is a massive decking which provides an even more stunning vista. An outdoor jacuzzi has recently been put in place on the decking.Over 180 degrees of breathtaking scenery. The elevation of the outdoor decking is such, it leaves the observer with a feeling of floating over the marvellous landscape, across the rolling green hills, the towering cliff faces and the Atlantic Ocean. The yard is expansive and re grassed, surrounded by high hedges offering seclusion and privacy without impeding the stunning vistas.

We stayed at Eagles nest for a week and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful and lovely and cosy especially in the winter months. The views from the house are amazing and there is a lovely outside deck which would be amazing in the summer months. great house to go to as just a couple or a great one for a family |

Lovely house , lovely place and weather not so bad. very comfortable and relaxing and enjoyed hot-tub. Thanks Claire for you hospitality . Never got to light the stove as not needed, but room would be very cosy if lit. Fabulous view from deck and tub! |
