Beautiful Irish Cottage with Loft Gallery, wooded lot with access to the sea
A secret Victorian garden provides the romantic setting for Maple House. The wild gardens with steps down to a fish pond once belonged to the 1862 Roches Royal Hotel.
The hotel has vanished and only the old garden known as the "Rockery" with its exotic trees and stone steps remains. The secluded house has views across the Dromgarriff golf course and its own pathway to the shore overlooking Garnish Island.
Property Details: Downstairs: Large kitchen/dining room, living room, open fire, 2 bathroom, 2 bedrooms (1 double with bathroom en suite, 1 twin bedroom), terrace.
Upstairs: Loft Gallery, 1 twin bedroom.
Facilities: Oil system central heating, washing machine/dryer, dishwasher, TV
"Staycation" Just returned from a staycation and cannot recommend this house highly enough. Gorgeous peaceful setting with donkeys and deers for neighbours. The house is about 5min drive from Glengarriff village and 20min from Bantry. The house itself is spotless and well equipped. It is set in beautiful grounds and there is plenty to explore outside the front door. We have already booked out return visit.

A comfortable home well-located for touring Cork-Kerry countryside. Comfortable bedrooms and excellent kitchen facilities and equipment. Assistance and response of caretaker was superb. Located next to an absolutely delightful (very short but challenging) and beautiful golf course. Excellent shopping with a couple of kilometers and convenient to the larger community of Bantry. We frequently rent homes for a week or two and this was among the very best.
