About this property

The Nest

Sleeps 2 · One bedroom · Wood-burning stove



A quiet cabin for two, set above the land with sweeping views across West Cork. Designed for slow mornings, long evenings, and complete privacy.

Inside, light-filled timber interiors and wide windows connect you to the landscape beyond. Light the stove, open a bottle, and watch the sun fall over the hills.



The view from this cabin is spectacular and the starry sky is second to none as this part of the world is one of the best dark skies around.



Feel free to explore 'The Coop', our bakery next door as you take peaceful walks in the countryside.

What an absolute treat! Clare is a wonderful host and The Nest is just the balm a traveller needs. Honestly, I'd have stayed far longer if time had permitted. Cosy, warm and inviting, gorgeous views, and tucked away, it's just perfect. Clare even left fresh eggs and delicious bread, and started up the pot-belly fire! Bliss! I'll in this neck of the woods again, and I'll definitely stay longer! Happy nesting! Ann
