• "Myself and my wife had a wonderful 2 week stay at Raheen."

  The property owners are both the most welcoming and kindest of people. We have holidayed in Ireland too many times to mention but have had the warmest of welcomes ever from the hosts at Raheen. This was our second visit to this property and we have already booked to go again next year. The kindness shown to us by the hosts was beyond exceptional, thank you again Jane-Ann and John, from Mark & Sheila

• "Extremely hospitable couple who went out of their way to provide us with a lovely holiday."

  They unexpectedly laid on a meal for us on arrival and also a large basket of goodies. This was followed by scones the next day and also on the day of our departure. The bungalow was modern, well appointed and very comfortable. I cannot recommend this property highly enough. Absolutely excellent.

  Jane-Anne was so generous with all the goodies that she left for us. Definitely the best we have ever had! It was great to be able to eat in the light and spacious conservatory. Masses of outside space with plenty of garden furniture. Well equipped and quiet situation located conveniently for Skibbereen and various coastal villages and bays "Simply the best!!"

  It's easy to find and has everything you need. The sun lounge is the perfect place to watch the local cows and sheep. But what sets this place apart is the host: she is very helpful without being intrusive and provided us with an amazing welcome pack. All in all, a very relaxing and civilised place.

  From the warm welcome on arrival, to the warm scones on Saturday morning, this is truly a lovely place to stay. There is everything one could need for a holiday- the bungalow is very well equipped and Jane Ann will ensure that guests have anything extra that they require. From the bungalow there is easy access to the beaches at Tragumna and Tralispeen, to the sailing hub in Baltimore and the Sheep’s Head, Mizen and Beara peninsulas with their stunning scenery. We have already booked for our third visit next year!

• "We couldn't recommend this cottage or the welcome by Jane-Ann highly enough."

  The location is perfect for visiting towns and beaches along the Atlantic Way. Standing outside the house looking up at a sky dense with stars and no light interference is a memory we'll hold onto forever. Everything you could want is available including bbq, beach chairs, toiletries. We arrived late in the evening. Jane-Ann contacted us to make sure we had good directions and to let us know there was plenty of food in the fridge. She had prepared salads, cold meats, breads, wine, beer, cider, milk and a birthday cake for me! She had also left fresh flowers, a birthday card, fruit and chocolates. She then made us fresh warm scones on our first and last morning. She was helpful throughout with suggestions and ideas for visits and so kind and friendly. We honestly were overwhelmed by her generosity. The property was clean, comfortable, well maintained, easy to find with beautiful views and a garden.

  Very clean, comfortable, plenty of room, nice views. Everything you need is present and even more. Our host, Jane-Ann is lovely and very generous and hospitable. She made us a lot of food because we arrived later in the evening with a good bottle of wine. The neighborhood is quiet, very nice with lovely villages around.

  En dehors de cela cette location est parfaite, magnifique véranda au toit en bois cheminée très bien aussi. La propriétaire est très chaleureuse et fournit un pack de bienvenue généreux avec un plus : une assiette de mini sandwichs au jambon, très agréable attention après la route. Beaucoup de petites villes à proximité et les péninsules et si c'est pour la période d'Halloween, ne manquez pas le village de Peal très joliment décoré pour cette fête. Je recommende vivement cette location.

• "The welcome was really outstanding."

  There was a full tea on the table which included sandwiches, scones and cake and there was a bottle of wine in the fridge in addition to milk and butter. Jane Anne was very attentive and very welcoming. The conservatory was very comfortable and from the windows there was a full panorama of sloping fields in which lived 90 cows. The view was amazing and kept us fascinated for a week with the daily routine of the cows and the farm opposite. We loved the cottage and the area and had a full week doing the "Wild Atlantic Way" from Glengarriff to Tramore... This completed our mission to do the whole route from north to south over four weeks in four years. If we were to return anywhere it would be to Raheen.
