It is adjacent to a dairy farm yard & from the deck you can enjoy all the sights and sounds of a family run Irish farm. Wake up to the sound of a cock crowing!

The loft has been newly renovated to a high standard yet keeps its traditional style. Old stone steps lead up to the main loft door entrance with its stone walls & timber roof trusses overhead. The old stonewalls both internally & externally have been kept in their original state. The old timber floor planks and high ceilings helps retain that rustic feel. The apartment comprises of a bedroom & an open plan kitchen/living room with double glass doors opening onto a deck with stunning views out over Dunmanus Bay & the green countryside.

The bedroom with its high raised ceiling carried by the original timber beams has views again out over the traditional orchard & Dunmanus bay. This room has a double bed & single bed so can cater for couples or two individuals as required. The spacious deck area is built around the trunk of a sycamore tree with steps descending to the orchard.
