Provider-sourced guest reviews.
We really enjoyed our stay. The cottage was fully ours for the duration, which made it feel private and relaxed. It was decently equipped, and we were able to cook every day without needing to eat out. Lidl was close by and had everything we needed to stock up for the week. The shower was huge. The host was great and made everything easy from start to finish
The bed was not comfortable at all. The double bed was extremely small — it could barely fit both of us, and we’re not on the heavy side. In the end we had to sleep separately in two different rooms just to get proper rest, because we kept bumping into each other. It really should not be advertised as a standard double bed. Another thing to be aware of is the fine for any towels or bedding stained with makeup or tan. Tan I can understand, but makeup is unreasonable. I had to use my own face towel the entire stay just to avoid being charged. This policy felt quite strict and took away from the experience
Lovely view of the lake and very central to Bantry

Fantastic place
Una casita monísima con todo lo necesario para una estancia increible, el lago al que sabe la casa con cisnes incluidos, paz y tranquilidad perfectas para relajarte. El dueño muy amable y pendiente en todo momento de que estuvieras agusto.
Schöne Wohnung mit Blick auf den See. Praktisch und schön eingerichtet. Netter Gastgeber der schnell und freundlich auf alle Nachrichten geantwortet hat.
Leider ist der See nicht zum Schwimmen geeignet und die Ausstattung in der Küche könnte vervollständigt werden.
Beautiful location, really peaceful. Comfortable, clean and well.equipt accommodation.
Hübsches Cottage , sehr sauber. Gute Lage am Meeresarm

Beautiful 2 story suite with all the amenities, including a washer. Great view. Would be a great place to spend a few days.
Upstairs bathroom for our old knees…
Alles super. Schöne Wohnung - super ruhige Lage. Sehr sympathischer Gastgeber .
What a beautiful location! We loved it there.
There was t anything we didn’t like!
La cadre est magnifique, la tranquillité, la nature, les animaux… la réactivité de l’hôte
Il n’y a vraiment que 2 places confortables dans le salon…
Quiet place nearthe lake.
Endroit très calme et jolie vue Chambres spacieuses Stores occultants
Le descriptif est erroné: Ce n'est pas 160 m² annoncés mais plutôt 60?!... Pas 2 sdb annoncées mais 1 salle de douche et 2 WC, auc7n au rez de chaussée! Pas de salon de jardin ni de table pour déjeuner ou se relaxer dehors . Cuisine faussement équipée, pas de machine à café, pas de quoi faire cuire des pâtes ou du riz, une seule petite poêle adaptée pour l'induction... bref un peu déçus wuand même..:( Lit double assez petit : 140 cm...
Petite maison trés bien équipée en bord de lac et tout proche de Bantry...bucolique à souhait
Location was very pretty. Excellent communication from the hosts. Large walk in shower with very good water pressure .
Nothing - everything great.
Idyllic not too far from town
Beautiful location. The lake was gorgeous, the host has beautiful flower beds. Truly a lovely location.
The beds were uncomfortable. The towels were basically dish towels, and the host made no effort to add anything to make guests feel welcome.
Sehr schöne, ruhige Lage direkt am Fluss. Wunderschönes, gemütliches und grosszügiges Haus mit Charme. Ein herzlicher Empfang vom Gastgeber.
Einzig mehr Pfannen hätte ich mir gewünscht. Sonst alles sehr gut!!!😀wir konnten sogar unsere Kleider waschen.
Un 10 en todo! Excelente alojamiento, cocina equipada con todo lo necesario, habitaciones impecables y cama muy comoda. Fue un detalle tener la calefacción encendida cuando llegamos ya que en diciembre en Irlanda hace frío. Nos encantó la casa y sus vistas! Esperamos volver. Gracias!
Ein sehr schönes ausgestattetes Haus mit einem schönen Garten direkt am See. Leider konnte man wegen der lästigen Fliegen nicht vor die Tür gehen. Das war schon sehr schade. Das Haus verfügt über 2 Schlafzimmer, einem Bad und einer extra Toilette. Die Ausstattung ist sehr schön. Leider gibt es in Schlafzimmern nur Kippfenster, zum Glück mit Fliegengitter. In meinem Zimmer war das Fliegengitter leider etwas defekt was dazu führte, dass morgens dann lauter kleine Fliegen im Zimmer waren. Shit happens. Die Qualität der Betten war allerdings sehr gut.
Die Lage! Man ist schon etwas abseits vom Schuss, aber das haben wir ja gewusst
The location, the lake!!!
Bit difficult to find in the dark, coming out from the town, not well signed.
Flat was spotless, well heated with great facilities. Our host was friendly and helpful and we had an all round great stay.
Erholsame ruhige Lage am See. Sehr idyllisch. Gute, gemütliche Möblierung.

On Lake, kitchen well decked out, beds comfortable
Heater went off too soon, a bit cold in morning
Very clean. Quite basic but had everything we needed. The owner was very easy to communicate with.
They must have had some awful guests before… the signs about charging for bed sheets were quite off putting.
C'est un lieu très calme et très reposant au bord d'un lac, nous avons profiter de l'espace extérieur aménagé sur le bord du lac. Le logement en très bien équipé et très spacieux.
Rien de négatif
Luogo incantato sulle sponde del lago con i cigni vixinissimo. Casa a due piani pulita, ordinata e anche se vicinissimo al lago con le zanzariera che hanno salvato dalle zanzare. Letti comodi e stanze grandi e comode.
Beautiful location with a very helpful host
N/A
De badkamer was top. Ook een mooi uitzicht.
Het meubilair was een beetje muf. Vooral de bank en de kastjes. Ook is er geen gevoel van privacy in de tuin.Het is een fantastische plek, maar het nodigt niet uit om buiten te zitten.
Posizione incantevole. Location tranquilla ideale per il relax.
Non abbiamo potuto chiudere la porta di casa poiché la chiave non funzionava.
The view of the lake is gorgeous, the kitchen is very well equipped, the host is nice and you have a complete house for yourselves!
The property and the location is absolutely beautiful. The host was very welcoming and friendly.
Perfectly fine
In this season, There are many small flying insects. Then the internet went down that day.
This is a lovely property in a beautiful, peaceful location overlooking the lake close to Bantry and surrounding areas of West Cork. It is ideal for a family with excellent facilities.
Beautiful location off the beaten track. Everything you could wish for to cook a fab meal, but best were the views and tranquility
Nothing
The Lookout is fabulous, 10/10 all round. What a truly amazing place. It is perfect, so peaceful and such a beautiful location on the lake. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, with everything we needed. We met Geraldine the host, on the second day we were there, she is so friendly and kind to us, giving us herbs from her garden. She also gave us great tips for places of interest and she was spot on. Excellent recommendations. I would highly recommend this property, and I would love to stay again.
There is nothing to dislike, it is a lovely place to stay and I rate it 10/10
The house was lovely, clean and had beautiful views of the lake.It was easy to get to and in close proximity to the town.
Stunning location and well equipped.
One bed was exceptionally hard.
The location is amazing!
Nothing it was great!
the location is outstanding, the house was perfect, so private, we will definitely go back.
Wonderful place… so quiet!
Lovely place too stay.Has everything you need and really clean.
The view was stunning!
Could have been a little warmer.
Great house. Best sleep I had In a while. Great oura in the house. Great location. Thank you very much
Beautiful house in a stunning location. Tom was hospitable and welcoming and his house was equipped with everything you could want and more for a comfortable stay. There is a washing machine which is handy when you've been on the road for a while.
Nothing. We particularly loved that there was a gorgeous view from every window.
Very nice looking apartment and very clean, beautiful view all around. Very close from shops and places to visit
Silence, peace, beautiful sunsets, comfort
My wife only complained about the lack of a hair dryer.
The property is situated down a quite narrow road, surrounded by lake swans, and a fantastic view.
It was do close to Gougane barra and Bantry
Tom was very friendly, helpful, and warm. The house is situated beside the lake with stunning views . The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils and up to date cooking equipment. It was so tranquil , woke up refreshed as the only sounds you can hear is the trickle of the fresh water stream and nature. You are only a five minute drive from Bantry
Nothing bad to say
This property was lovely! Very clean and had everything you need
Nothing!
Views of lake were stunning and facilities excellent. A short drive to Bantry
No issues
Beautiful location, it is just at the Bantry bay, you can see the sea and montaines from the window and you can walk to the shore. The check in was very easy with an external lockbox system. The house was very clean, nicely decorated and equipped with everything.
Downstairs was a bit cold (we went in the end of October), more heating would be amaizing.
Peaceful location
This property was immaculate, comfortable and had all we needed for a short stay.
