Kilcomane House is set within a majestic setting overlooking the sea on the magnificent Cashelean Farm Estate in Durrus, Co.Cork. Furnished and designed to a very high specification, this property is a dream getaway with sleeping capacity for 12 guests.
Kilcomane House is a unique blend of traditional house with a modern interior and it is as close to the sea as you are ever likely to find, looking out (without binoculars) at the seals at play on a small island just in front of the house. There is a wonderfull view of Dunmanus Bay to the east and to the west.
Kilcomane Pier is just a stroll away. The house is surrounded by green pastures. Here you are guaranteed peace and tranquillity, away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The hi-tech kitchen is a chef's dream, just a step away from the dining room, which seats 14 and has a spectacular view of Dunmanus Bay.
Locally hand-crafted units with sleek granite worktops have build-in gas and electric hob and 2 dishwashers. The kitchen has freestanding stainless steel double oven and fridge freezer. Additional fridge / freezer, 2 washing machines and dryers in the pantry.
The dining area opens to a large terrace, with a build-in stone barbeque.

Cashelane Stud is part of Cashelane Farm Estate. On this 700 acre farm overlooking Dunmanus Bay the owners have been breeding Pedigree Beef Cattle, mainly Aberdeen Angus, for decades. Also a small donkey herd is kept.
In recent years the breeding of Irish Cobs (the heavily feathered traditional type) and Connemara Ponies has begun. The photo below shows the riding arenas at Cashelane Stud with Dunmanus Bay in the background.
"Excellent Property, Stunning Location" This is a 5* property - we had such an amazing holiday (helped by the lovely weather - which cannot always be guaranteed!) The views and location are stunning and on a clear day you could just sit an stare out of the copious windows for hours. There was plenty of space for our extended family holiday of 10 adults and 2 children. Everything was thought of with excellent/ample bathrooms, linens, laundry, kitchen, crockery, glassware etc facilities - we were particularly impressed by the 2 dishwashers!!

Kilcomine House was the perfect venue for our extended family to enjoy a week in West Cork. The house surpassed all our expectations; it was spacious, comfortable, superbly well equipped and had magnificent views. There were lovely walks from the house, basking seals on the rocks in the bay and a little beach within walking distance. Eileen, our caretaker could not have been more helpful and provided us with all we needed for 5 young children. We would recommend ordering an online shop to be delivered on arrival day, a visit to Bantry market and Bantry House, Barleycove Beach and Schull harbour. We also booked Clovis Ferguson of GubbeenGreens to come in and cook dinner for us adults.....highly recommended after long days on the beach and entertaining the grandchildren. And the sun shone every single day, it was the best holiday we have ever had.

Kilcomane house was the best house I've ever stayed in and all my family agreed. Very well equipped and very clean. The views are spectacular. Very peaceful and secluded. We hope to go back in the summertime.

“It exceeded everyone's expectations and some!!!” My family spent Christmas in Kilcomane house and it was just wonderful. It is the best equipped house I have ever stayed in. Anything you think you need is there. We were a big group so the two washing machines and two dryers as well as the two dishwashers were a god send. The management were second to none and were always nearby if we had any queries. The views are magical and you just can't help but relax once you get there. I will definitely be staying again.
