About this property

Situated at the end of a quite lane, Ait Ma Chroi offers absolute peace whilst being in easy reach of many East Cork attractions - Ballymaloe cookery school and hotel, Ballycotton, Cork city and Cobh. The house has a large double height, light-filled open living area with wooden floors and views of the countryside and sea. A wood-burning stove making it warm and cosy even in the winter. To the front of the house, facing south to the sea, is an open garden giving onto the fields, while a sheltered courtyard at the rear catches the late afternoon sun. Two bedrooms – one double ensuite and one twin with adjacent shower room provide comfortable accommodation for four, with a travel cot if required. The mile long quiet sandy beach at Ballycroneen West is just a short drive away – perfect for rock-pooling, paddling and swimming. There are a number of golf courses in the area and sailing in Cork Harbour is within a short drive.

Tolles Haus in super Lage

Riesiges Haus auf einem einsamen und abgelegenen Grundstück. Hier hat man seine Ruhe. Unbedingt den Anweisungen des Vermieters folgen, sond wird es schwer, das Haus zu finden. Das Haus bestht aus zwei Schlafzimmern, jeweils mit eigenen Badezimmer und einem riesigen Wohn-Ess Bereich und einer Küche. Zwei Terassen, so dass man immer ein Pläzchen zum Sitzen findet. Von der Hausaufteilung großartig. Das Haus wurd Mitte der 90er Jahre erbaut, in dem Haus befindet sich ein Fotoalbaum, dass die Baufortschritte dokumentiert. Sehr schön gelegen. Eine Einrichtungsgegenstände müssten mal erneuert werden, aber da konnten wir drüber hinweg sehen.

Beautiful home with amazing views, incredibly quiet

This home is beautiful. It has an open floor plan with exposed beams and it is filled with natural lighting. You can view the ocean from the house and can hear the surf if you are outside. I have never been anywhere so peaceful and quiet. We absolutely loved our relaxing stay here, walking the beach and visiting Cloyne for groceries. I would stay here again and would definitely recommend to others.

About the host

Hosted by Alison Vickers

We manage the property on behalf of my parents, who are retired, my father is the architect who designed and built the house. We live in Oxford, in the UK, I work as a coach and my husband works for a charity and we have two daughters. We love Ireland, for the house and its surroundings, the peace and quiet and the lovely people.

Why they chose this property

Absolute peace and quiet in rolling east Cork countryside but within easy reach of local attractions - the Ballymaloe Hotel and cookery school, Ballycotton Harbour, the Jameson whisky centre in Midleton and Cobh and Cork harbour.
Light and airy architect-designed house for four, set amongst rolling farmland with views of the sea. Brilliant for a family holiday with easy access to a mile-long sandy beach.

Situated at the end of a quite lane, Ait Ma Chroi offers absolute peace. The house has a large double height, light-filled open living area with wooden floors and views of the countryside and sea. A wood-burning stove making it warm and cosy even in the winter.

To the front of the house, facing south to the sea, is an open garden giving onto the fields, while a sheltered courtyard at the rear catches the late afternoon sun.

What makes this property unique

Two bedrooms – one double en-suite and one twin with adjacent shower room provide comfortable accommodation for four, with a travel cot if required

The mile long quiet sandy beach at Ballycroneen West is just a short drive away – perfect for rock-pooling, paddling and swimming. There are a number of golf courses in the area and sailing in Cork Harbour is within a short drive. The beautiful fishing village of Ballycotton is a 15 minute drive – and is well worth the visit to see the catch come in, walk along the coastal path and visit the nearby the nationally renowned Ballymalloe House Hotel and Restaurant. The village of Cloyne is a 10minute drive away for basic shopping and the lively market town of Middleton has a good range of restaurants, bars and a great Saturday farmers markert.
