We spent two nights in this wonderful house. It was clean and spacious and we had cosy nights by the fire. The location on the Sheep's Head is spectacular. The magical light and morning Winter sun was breath-taking. I ate breakfast outside accompanied by a lovely robin. Taschi was a very warm and welcoming host.

Beautiful Spot

The house is amazing and the view from the terrace is simply stunning. The house has place to spare for a family of 4. Bantry - for all amenities and great food - is 15min by car. Durrus (with a few nice pubs and a village grocer) a good 5 minutes. Sheep‘s Head is a gorgeous and not too straining walk with Beara and Mizen Head also within reach for a day trip. Very highly recommended!

Somewhat disappointing

Good location, excellent view. Had to ask for pillow, blankets and sheets. Only 1 towel per person. Had to ask for paper towels and toilet paper. They advertised a washer and dryer but we did not have access to it. They would take our laundry and return it the next day.

This is a beautiful home in a beautiful, quiet location. We were able to take a long hike around sheep’s head peninsula just by walking to the end of the driveway. We had a great time here!

Remote Retreat with family

We had a very pleasant stay at Taschi‘s House. From here, we explored Sheep‘s Head, Mizen Head and Bantry. Taschi was very welcoming and helpful. She and a friendly neighbor even pulled our car out of a ditch.

Clean house, everything you needed was available. Access easy and comfortable. Extremely quiet and beautiful nature around, very peaceful, fantastic view onto the Atlantic. Hosts very friendly and helpful. Food shopping in 15 minutes driving distance, good restaurants nearby. Worth a detour was Dede restaurant in Baltimore.

Urlaub mit 2 Teenagern

Sehr freundliche Gastgeberin, hat sicher immer um das Wohl des Gastes bemüht. Sehr schönes, großes Haus, Lage ist toll. Wir waren zum ersten Mal in Irland und der erste Eindruck war perfekt. Wenn wir wieder in der Gegend wären, würden wir dieses Haus wieder buchen.

Traumhafte Unterkunft

Wir (Eltern + Kind & Großeltern) waren super zufrieden mit der Unterkunft! Taschi und ihre Schwestern Panea haben uns liebevoll empfangen. Das Haus hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Besonders hervorheben muss man die unglaubliche Sauberkeit, die guten Betten und die Liebe zum Detail. Der Ausblick ist traumhaft. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt! Danke für diese tolle Erfahrung und eure Gastfreundlichkeit! Unterkunft kann man absolut weiter empfehlen! Katharina & Familie

Ein Traum

Wir durften 4 wunderschöne Wochen in diesem außergewöhnlichen Haus verbringen. Taschi hat es mit viel Liebe zum Detail und Geschmack eingerichtet. Zur Begrüßung gab es eine Flasche Wein und Blumen und für den Hund stand ein Napf mit Hundewein parat. Bei der Ausstattung haben wir nichts vermisst. Unser Hund war schockverliebt in den großen, eingezäunten Garten, dem sie immer noch nachtrauert. Taschi und Pavea standen immer mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Unvergesslich bleiben die Nachmittage bei strahlendem Sonnenschein auf der Terrasse. Der Ausblick ist atemberaubend. In der näheren Umgebung gibt es viel zu entdecken. Tiefenentspannt sind wir zurückgekehrt. Danke.

Wunderbar!

Wir haben im August eine Woche mit unserer Familie im Haus von Taschi verbracht und uns dort ausgesprochen wohl gefühlt! Das Haus ist in einem sehr guten Zustand und es fehlt an keinerlei Ausstattung. Der Blick vom Haus und der Terrasse auf das Meer ist umwerfend und wir haben dies sehr genossen. Vielen Dank Taschi für die Bereitstellung dieser wundervollen Unterkunft und die freundliche Betreuung!

Wir waren begeistert. Das Haus liegt idyllisch und ruhig etwas außerhalb, mit fantastischem Blick auf die Bucht. Ein Auto ist von Vorteil.Taschi hat das Haus liebevoll eingerichtet, es hat an nichts gefehlt. Bei Fragen konnten wir uns jederzeit an sie wenden. Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt und werden eines Tages wieder kommen.
