Home description
Retaining many of it's original features including the original stone walls, the property has been renovated with maple floors, stained glass and many artistic features. Location feels very remote and an idillic getaway from modern life but is only a few Kms. from the village of Caheragh which has two pubs and a convenience store. A good baste to explore West cork and represents excellent value for money.
