The recently renovated holiday home is fitted with 3 bedrooms, a flat-screen TV with streaming services and a fully equipped kitchen that provides guests with a dishwasher, an oven, a washing machine, a microwave and a toaster. Guests can take in the views of the sea from the patio, which also has outdoor furniture. There is also a seating area and a fireplace.

The house was very clean, and linens were soft and in excellent condition (comforters were not worn or "pilled"). The location was excellent -- beautiful view, sweet small yard and privacy around the house. Parking important, pull up right next to the house. Separate laundry room / utility area was wonderful (many houses have washer appliance located in the kitchen, which is a huge headache -- especially for families with children! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage!!

The house exceeded our expectations. Spotless, well appointed, all needs considered. It’s a great house for people with mobility needs with open floor plan and wet room showers. Very comfortable living room with lazy boys for everyone. Great location when driving. Short walk to a beautiful swim spot. The host Aileen was very responsive and communication was easy. I highly recommend this house for anyone staying in this area. I’ll be back.

Beautiful, quaint cottage with tasteful, 'old Irish' decor in a lovely location full of wild nature & scenic views. The host had made an effort to put up beautiful Christmans decorations for us - a lovely gesture. Ample parking. Very comfortable & clean beds with more than enough extra blankets. Promised mod cons were there & working. Having no TV was amazing! The peace & quiet at night was extraordinary & we slept extremely well.

Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    We had the absolute privilege of spending a few days in Cul Cottage over Easter 2024. Ger and Derarca have created something really special here, allowing people to experience a step back in time on the edge of Ireland. Staying in a 200-year old cottage is, of course, not going to be the same as a modern holiday home...the house has its quirks and that's part of the charm! Bring plenty of fuel for the stove, get cosy and enjoy this very special place.

    Alan was the perfect host. Settled us in with a pot of tea and chocolate cookies. Our room was a good size, very clean and comfortable with a fabulous view of the bay. The hearty Irish breakfast was delicious and set us up perfectly for a day of sightseeing.
