Wild Wild West Holiday Cottages

We received a wonderful welcome, including home made scones and bread and eggs straight from the hens. Chris was interested and knowledgeable. The cottage was possibly the best eqipped place we have ever stayed and really comfortable and relaxing

The Irish weather kept us guessing, but it didn't stop us doing everything we wanted

This place was even more beautiful than it looked on the pictures. Surrounded by a gorgeous Irish landscape it felt very peaceful and quiet. Chris was a lovely host and took us to see parts of the farm and feed the animals. The house was not only beautifully decorated, it was lovely to see that Chris and Steph thought of every little detail, including fresh scones and eggs waiting for us on arrival. Perfect location for a romantic getaway and if you want to relax on the countryside.

The holiday home is beautiful and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. The alpacas and the tour of the farm were an added bonus!

Everything was great!

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt im Wild Wild West Cottage sehr genossen. Die Wohnung ist top ausgestattet, mit allem Komfort. Die Gastgeber Chris und Steph sind wirklich super nett und wir haben uns sehr gefreut, dass wir beim Rundgang über die Farm mit Versorgen und Füttern der Tiere dabei sein durften.

Prachtig onderkomen. Veel ruimte, alles is er wat nodig is. Superschoon en zeer aardige host. We kregen uitgebreide uitleg over de omgeving en bij aankomst was er brood, eieren, koffie en thee. Je voelt je uiterst welkom daardoor. Centraal gelegen.

De hartelijke ontvangst , heel ruim, licht en net appartement.

It literally had everything you could need on a stay. Chris and Steph were exceptional hosts. We had freshly laid eggs, honey from bees on the property and the soap, handmade by Steph. Shower gel is provided but the soap was amazing. We got to met the animals on the farm and feed them.

The kids adored the alpacas right outside and loved going out to visit them. The hosts think of everything and really feels like a home away from home. The homemade food is

Having to leave! Honestly one of the nicest places we’ve stayed as a family and would recommend it to anyone.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Chris and Steph are great hosts. The accommodation was really comfortable and the added bonus of little touches like milk and water left in the fridge, scones and their own home made honey was really touching and impressive. We got to meet their beloved lamas, pigs and goats and we witnessed first hand their great attention to detail and the love and care they put into their premises. Would highly recommend.

Sehr freundliche Gastgeber! Mit Chris durften unsere Kinder auch die Tiere füttern helfen. Die Wohnung war top ausgestattet!

Schoon, ruim, alles aanwezig en fijne mensen

Very warm welcome and comfortable stay in West Cork. We appreciated all the extra touches that made our holiday feel special, including homemade gifts and the handy wall map.

Gorgeous landscape; beautiful gardens and animals and view of the sea

Loved how warm and welcoming the property was. The guests had welcome gifts like milk and bread. The property was spacious, beds were lovely. The property is modern and well kept.

Das cottage ist sehr sehr schön gestaltet und wirklich prima ausgestattet! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, auch der Kontakt zu den Gastgebern war erfrischend und herzlich.!

Cottage inside, surroundings, atmosphere and quietness.

Nothing to say I didn't like.

Accueil chaleureux, confort, espace, tout est parfait.

Spotlessly clean comfortable quiet

Die Vermieter sind sehr nett, die Lage ist toll, die tierischen "Mitbewohner" einzigartig. Die Ferienwohnung ist liebevoll eingerichtet und perfekt ausgestattet mit allem, was man braucht, auch wenn man mehr als Spaghetti kochen will, was ansonsten gar nicht so oft der Fall ist, also besonders hervorzuheben ist. Die Lage ist toll, abgelegen, ruhig, aber nur wenige Autominuten entfernt von wunderschönen Wanderpfaden.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely house, perfectly located for exploring the Ring of Beara. The accommodation was one of the cleanest we experienced during our trip to Ireland – everything was spotless and very well maintained. The host gave us a very warm welcome, even providing delicious treats like scones, bread, eggs, butter, and milk, which we really appreciated. We also enjoyed being able to join in feeding the farm animals, which was a special experience. Both hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, and we felt very comfortable throughout our stay. We would highly recommend this place!

Nothing - everything was great.

Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Alles im Cottage ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sehr den schönen Empfang mit Lebensmitteln gefreut. Für uns war es auch ein schönes Erlebnis mit beim Tier füttern dabeisein zu können.

Wir haben keine Kritik.

Very well designed and built house, comfortable and well equipped in a wonderful location. Lots of nice personal touches - a welcoming spread including their own honey, their handmade soaps in the bathroom, going out to meet and stroke all their animals at feeding time. Lovely setting under a rocky hill and with a glimpse of the sea, about ten minutes drive from Castletownbere. My first time on the Beara peninsula, we got the cable car out to Dursey island and explored.

Beautiful atmosphere of a farm cottage. Very well equipped, we found there everything we needed for cooking and etc. Little fireplace made the evening super cosy. The hosts are very kind and sympathetic. They made our stay comfortable by preparing for us food after arrival and fun by showing us around the farm which is wonderful. Animals there seemed super happy as we were at this wonderful place! Recommending to everyone.

Wunderschöne Einrichtung, liebevolle Details, Eier, Milch, Honig waren da, Seifen aus der eigenen Werkstatt… alles Perfekt!

This is such a gorgeous, comfortable, cosy, well maintained house. The hosts thought of everything! Eggs, honey, bread, milk, water and hot cross buns on arrival which was a lovely touch. Lots of games in the house that kept the kids entertained even down to colouring pensils and paper. Location was ideal. Chris was nice enough to take us to feed the animals our boys (5&7) we're thrilled.

Can't think of anything to dislike all was lovely!

Absolutely everything! Gorgeous cottage, comfy+ cosy. Amazing beds, beautiful hot shower, well equipped kitchen with lovely breads and hot cross buns awaiting our arrival. Farm eggs, coffee, tea and milk as well. Bonus - sweet Llamas across the drive and a hedgehog sighting! - 100% recommend! Chris was more than accommodating our tardy arrival for our reservation and so speedy about communication.Thanks for everything!

The house is in a quiet location. It is a working farm. The owner is very accommodating. Any queries were answered quickly. The house is very comfortable. There were eggs and hot cross buns on the table when we arrived and also milk, teabags, coffee and bread. It is a short drive to the local town and to the Buddhist temple where they serve amazing coffees.

There was nothing I did not like about this place.

Cottage surpassed expectations. Beautifully decorated in idyllic location. Fantastic hosts with bonus animals. Daughter was very attached to alpacas!

Nothing, we had amazing stay.

Very clean, super tidy, totally cosy. Very warm welcome. Best accommodation of our trip.

Amazing location and views

Beautiful clean comfortable and very well equipped house. Refurbished with all modern conveniences. The unexpected extra touches like, milk bread honey butter etc were lovely and unexpected. And a handmade soap each. We enjoyed seeing all the different animals. This is truly a relaxing, heavenly place. Chris was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We loved our stay.

There is nothing to not like it’s beautiful.

The house was beautiful and cosy. The hosts were so gracious and welcoming and the area is serene and scenic. Close to wonderful hikes and greeted by alpacas nearby, what more could you want. Perfect stay.

Nothing, everything was wonderful.

Location was spectacular and the lovely touches like providing buns, eggs, teabags, milk etc. was a really nice and appreciated touch

It was all good

Ein umwerfend schönes Haus, das mit sehr viel Liebe eingerichtet wurde. Wir fühlten uns ab der ersten Minute wie zuhause. Chris und Steph sind einfach toll. Die anderen guten Bewertungen sind nicht übertrieben.

Alles wirklich toll.

Una struttura fantastica in un posto meraviglioso, consiglio almeno 3 notti. Assolutamente.

Comfortable and well-appointed; had everything we could possibly need and more!

Nothing - Chris and Steph are wonderful hosts!

Absolutely delightful property. Hosts provided lovely extras, the fresh eggs a great bonus. Comfortable beds, good parking, well equipped kitchen

Should have stayed longer

The host was awesome. Very patient and offered a lot of information.

The cottage is very well designed and cozy. It has everything you need for the stay. Very clean as well. The owners are super welcoming. Loved the tour on the small farm. Definitely will go back

Our two bed cottage was gorgeous! Homely and spacious with everything you’d need. Really light, bright, and well designed with lots of thought - we appreciated all the cute quirks such as a little mouse hole painted on the stairs! Very comfortable place for a family stay. Chris and Steph are super welcoming and we loved meeting the animals - alpacas, pigs, chickens and brand new hedgehog arrivals! We also appreciated the lovely welcome basket and fabulous home made produce - baked goodies, home grown eggs & honey, as well as Steph’s amazing home made soaps. You’re right near the end of the Beara peninsula, with stunning coastal scenery and walks, it’s quiet and out in the wilds, you definitely need a car. Will be back!

Loved it all!

Sehr sympatische Vermieter mit viel Begeisterung für achtsamen Umgang mit ihren Tieren und der Natur. Bestens funktionierender Haushalt.

Gar nichts!

We were warmly welcomed by Chris, who showed us the lovely cottage. After the long day, we really appreciated the welcome goodies which thoughtfully consisted of everything we needed for breakfast (fruit scones, eggs, bread, butter, milk, water… and coffee & tea !). On top of that, the kids had a blast being presented to their team of alpacas, pigs, goats, sheep… we will return for more hugs from Elmo, Elliot and Elton ! We also got some of Steph’s handmade beeswax candles and soaps as gifts for family 💚

Sehr nette Vermieter Geräumiges Haus Fantastischer Empfang Hervorragende Ausstattung

Es hat an nichts gefehlt, wir hätten gerne mehr Zeit als drei Tage hier verbracht

Le clame, l’environnement, la décoration soignée, l’accueil très chaleureux de Chris, les animaux et la possibilité d’aller les nourrir avec Chris. L’appartement est très bien équipé, la Breara péninsule très belle ! Chris nous a communiqué plein de super adresses.

Rien !

Gîte très beau et très confortable, emplacement magnifique. Hôtes très agréables

Everything about this property is perfect. Don't change anything it's was perfect.

Warm welcome, beautiful free range eggs and baked goods, such a lovely touch. Very clean, spacious modern with old cottage feel, beautiful!

N/a

The farm, the animals, all the facilities and welcome freebies. It’s a perfect spot to visit other places with a car.

Everything was good and well thought out. It is very remote, though so no way of popping out to a shop on foot.

Very nice accommodation in peaceful location.Hosts are very accommodating and gave us the opportunity to accompany them on feeding of their animals. Our son loved this. Property is just five minutes drive from the Buddhist temple.

Nothing

Very modern filled with light, lovely decor all the mod cons, a big bath, alpacas and other farm animals the kids enjoyed meeting, location

Everything was perfect

Very comfortable and cool decor

The location was wonderful, quiet and peaceful. The house was very well equipped throughout . The visit with the farm animals during feeding time was also great.

Well thought out accommodation with everything you could possibly need, welcome items (milk, honey, bread, eggs), excellent experienced hosts

None

Our hosts were friendly,helpful and really amazing. We had such a lovely time. The area is beautiful and the accommodation was fabulous. Loved the 3 resident Alpachas:)

In such a beautiful location , cottage really bright, comfortable and well laid out .. 3 Alpacas were a woolly bonus !"

Was all grand , no complaints !

Everything was amazing… all the small things were brilliant! All the appliances were brand new and top of the range !

The weather … not really an issue they can resolve 😅

Without a doubt, the best self-catering accommodation we've ever stayed at in Ireland! Stunning location, beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable, and with everything you could possibly wish for for your stay. We honestly can't fault it. We fell in love with Elmo, Elton and Elliot too – a very cute bonus! Really hope to be back one day!

This is probably the loveliest self-catering cottage we have ever stayed in. The decor was tasteful and everything was to the highest specification. The hosts were so friendly and helpful. Chris met us to show us around and give us the key. The hosts live in the farm house next door. On arrival, there were fresh eggs and honey from the farm, a fresh loaf of bread, pats of butter and milk in the fridge. Fresh spearmint, dill and clover in a small jar decorated the dining table. There were small touches like this throughout the cottage. The kitchen was well-stocked, with a coffee-pod machine and a huge selection of herbal teas. We didn’t cook much but all equipment we would ever need were provided, including a kitchen scales! Shower gel, cotton buds, cotton swabs, and shower caps were provided in the bathroom, with a home-made natural bath bomb provided on each stack of towels. A lot of the products provided seemed to be from natural and/or sustainable sources, some home-made. The beds were really comfortable and there was a separate walk-in shower and free-standing bath in the bathroom. Outside at the back of the cottage there is a picnic table and we were lucky enough to enjoy sunshine there both in the mornings and evenings! The cottage itself was tucked away in a quiet location, set between the hosts’ farm house and another self-catering cottage they own. It’s about a 15 minute drive from the centre of Castletownbere, with stunning scenery nearby. A great place to unwind and relax.

It was hard to find anything we didn’t like. One thing to be aware of is that, in the cottage we stayed in, the bathroom is on the ground floor and the bedrooms are upstairs. It didn’t bother us at all but may be an issue for some. The cottage next door seemed to be single storey so check before you book if it is an issue.

Beautiful, peaceful location. Exceptionally renovated old farm house. Delightful hosts. Fresh eggs and scones on arrival.

Nothing

Lovely accommodation. Very well equipped, generous provisions on arrival.

Nothing!

Chris and Steph were so lovely! The accommodation was absolutely amazing and could not recommend it more. Such a hidden gem!!

This stay was a highlight for us! We felt so relaxed and at home after a busy few days of travel. Our kids enjoyed the board games, art, and children’s books. We loved the chance to cook a nice meal and eat while watching the alpacas through the window. Farmer Chris even took us on a tour of the property as he fed and introduced us to the adorable animals in the morning. We appreciated the labeled map in the kitchen with interesting destinations marked for easy planning. Highly recommend this cottage.

All was great.

Lovely cottage, very clean with everything you need for a short or longer stay. On arrival there was local eggs, bread, honey etc in the house. The location is great and while not in a town it's close enough especially with a car. Our children loved the farm and were down around helped feed the animals. Very good value and highly recommended.

The whole stay was brilliant. Love the way the cottage was decorated. It has everything we needed. The surrounding area was so peaceful and the hosts were so welcoming.

Nothing

Beautiful house, lovely setting, hosts were great. Very good value.

All was great

Absolutely loved everything about this place. The attention to detail by Chris and Steph is above and beyond. Handmade soaps on the bed. Games and Craft box for the children to play with. Everything we needed for a tasty breakfast.. fresh eggs from the farm. And my little girl was over the moon being able to go feed the animals with Chris. The alpacas outside our front door made it such a unique little getaway. Absolutely loved our stay in the cosiest, beautifully decorated cottage and the comfiest beds!!

A very nice sized kitchen, & bathroom. Living Room though small was comfortable. Many items such as tea, coffee, bread, butter & eggs were there on arrival. It has all modern appliances while maintaining historical cottage feel. There were even a few herbs & the owners were terrific! I love their petting zoo animals, self sufficient nature of their lives & it was quiet.

A bit far from Castletownbere but several other villages are nearby.

I liked absolutely everything about this property. It is located between the busy town of Castletownbere and the stunning village of Allihies. We met Chris, who gave us our keys and was a great person to deal with. He was friendly and had loads of local information. The house itself was gorgeous, all the character of these old Irish cottages but with all the mod cons we like today. It was clean and luxurious. There was also a lovely seating area at the back. Nearby are plenty of walks and drives. Dzogchen Beara with it's tasty cafe is nearby for cakes, lunches and coffee. There were so many extras with this property. We had lovely homemade soaps, honey from Chris and Steph's own bees, buns, milk, coffee, tea and loads of extras left in the kitchen. I have been staying in self catering accommodation for many years but this has been one of the best so far. We enjoyed everything about this place but the highlight for my daughters were the alpacas, pygmy goats, sheep and pigs. The alpacas are next to the house, so the children were more than happy to go and pet them.

Absolutely nothing.

Everything from the standard of the property to the location with fantastic views, the very sociable and friendly animals that kept the kids entertained, along with the welcome treats such as their own hen's eggs, own honey, own soaps, fresh bread, as well as a fully stocked pantry and the friendliness of the hosts made this a trip to remember and on leaving we told our hosts we will definitely be back. They clearly put a lot of thought into making the property comfortable and during our stay there they gave a lot of time to our kids explaining about all their animals including the charming alpaca's.

The location is amazing. The level of interaction allowed with the animals on the farm was fantastic and the hosts were very kind and helpful.

Nothing

I loved the bread, scones, eggs and home-produced honey provided on arrival, with pretty flowers and a welcome sign. Everything we could have needed was provided, including a basket of wood and firelighters for the fire. It was exceptionally clean and tidy and just like a home from home. The hosts were also very friendly and left us with no doubt we’d love to go back! One of the best rental properties I’ve ever stayed in ☺️

Nothing - everything was perfect.

It is a very comfortable cottage. The hosts have put a lot of thought to care of everything. Bottles of water, home-made soaps, tea, coffee, milk honey from the farm all provided. Chris and Steph are excellent hosts who took time to show us around the property and their farm animals. Highly recommended

Can't say anything bad about the property or the hosts.

Chris and Steph have done a phenomenal job with these cottages. We had a really comfortable stay and wanted for nothing.

N/A

The location was perfect for our needs, just 2.5km from the Dzogchen Beara Buddhist retreat centre. We arrived about 6:15pm and Chris was there to meet us. The cottage was clean and warm and there was a welcoming basket of eggs, honey and soap (all produced on the farm). The cottage was very well provisioned with a range of teas and coffees, bottled water, etc. The wifi was excellent and the TV featured Sky TV and Netflix. Are expectations were well exceeded!

Nothing at all.

Lovely hosts, great animals and cozy accommodations with all amenities. We shall return.

We had a wonderful stay with Chris and Steph, who were incredibly warm and welcoming. The place was spotless, and the attention to cleanliness was outstanding. The kitchen was the best equipped I’ve ever seen, and the house was cozy, warm, and had everything we needed. The alpacas were an absolute highlight—so fluffy and adorable! The location near the wild Atlantic coast was stunning, perfect for a peaceful getaway. Thank you, Chris and Steph, for an amazing stay. We’ll definitely be back!

Everything was perfect

We absolutely loved everything about our stay here. They have thought of everything to make your stay , just lovely.

We loved everything. Our hosts Chris and Steph were welcoming and so kind! We met their animals and interacted with them. We had bread and scones delivered, and many other extras to make our visit so nice. Thanks for the honey and soap!
