The location needs more than 5 stars. A beautifully quiet place with bluebells everywhere. Extensive paths through the grounds where the dog could run free. A peaceful and stress free time. Jackie and Jonathan were friendly and helpful but never intrusive.

A wonderful hideaway
A perfect spot for long or short walks and brilliant for me as I was catching up on some creative work which was completed in the calm and peaceful surroundings of West Cork

Beautiful property in a gorgeous location
We had a fantastic break. Jackie was was a friendly and helpful host. We were free to explore the extensive grounds- the views are spectacular, especially at sunset. The chalet is lovely. Very comfortable with everything as pictured. A little slice of paradise! We were visited regularly by Elsa and Saffron the dogs and enjoyed our evening strolls to visit the ponies and donkey. The surrounding area is stunning - there is so much to see and do. We enjoyed daily sea swims and exploring the coastline. We can't recommend this place highly enough!

Cozy cottage on beautiful property
Cottage was perfect for a couple. Hosts were super friendly. Most importantly Saffron and Elsa, the welcoming dogs were a delight. The horses and donkey also make this a special experience.

Fantastic spot
We had a lovely stay in this cottage. The property is beautiful and has loads to explore. There are walks with stunning views and lots of friendly animals. We found the cottage had plenty of amenities for our stay, but the best part is how easy it is to explore the area from here. I would recommend the cottage for a couple, but probably not a family as it would be a bit small for more than 2 people. We'd definitely like to visit again.

Peaceful and relaxing
We had a great week staying at Rock Cottage, the setting is beautiful the grounds are stunning and spacious. The chalet itself is hidden away with a private patio and resident ponies over the fence. The chalet is well kitted out with super kitchen and great shower, comfy bed and tv (we didn't use it). Lovely touch with the flowers and free eggs as a welcome. Will certainly recommend to others, we loved it

Superb location
The chalet is very compact. It took some discipline and organisation to make our stay comfortable. The bed is very comfortable and the shower and bathroom are very good. It would benefit from additional storage, even some shelves or coat/clothes hooks. It was, of course, great value for money.

A piece of heaven
We loved our stay in the chalet. It was idyllic. Jackie and Jonathan were great hosts, there when we needed them but never intrusive. The chalet had everything we needed and more. Sitting having breakfast in the company of the donkeys was our piece of heaven. We couldn't recommend Rock Cottage more strongly.

Very friendly reception. Everything catered for by Jacqueline and Jonathan. The location was perfect for us to relax and enjoy our short stay. The cottage and grounds are fabulous with very friendly animals (dogs, donkeys and ponies). Will definitely return.
