  • "I thoroughly enjoyed my week's stay at "Waterfall House"."

    I brought some of my own delph, etc. along with me. No need, everything was provided. There was plenty of space to park one's car beside the entrance of the house. One of my favourite things about this house is that there was perfect quietness, day and night.The beautiful scenery of West Cork and Kerry are not far away. Tim and Abinna were gentle and kind people.
