Staigue

Comfortably sleeping a family of four, this two-bedroom bolthole is only 1.3 miles from the nearest beach, where you can paddle, build sandcastles with the kids or potter along the sand for a morning stroll. Visit the Staigue Fort (0.5 miles), believed to be a 2,500-year-old settlement with a fascinating history which is perched within a meadow of wildflowers and colourful native birds. Dine out at the restaurants and pubs at Caherdaniel or Derrynane (5 miles), or try to score under 100 at the 18-hole golf course at Waterville (12 miles). There are three lovely sandy beaches in the area, Whitestrand Beach 2.5miles, Castlecove Beach 2.1miles and Derrynane Beach 7.5 miles.

Venture up to this commanding property and enter inside, where you will be met with a rustic lounge/kitchen/diner, complete with a wood burner and deep, cosy furniture. The whole family will easily settle in here while the head chef of the group unpacks the locally bought ingredients. Rustle up delicious meals in the kitchen, which is equipped with an oven/hob, fridge/freezer, microwave and dishwasher. A handy utility is available too and boasts a washing machine and tumble dryer. A WC can be found on this floor. Head up to the first floor to find a relaxing double bedroom and a calming twin bedroom, with an adjacent bathroom fitted with a bath, separate shower and WC.

The outside of the property is furnished with garden furniture and provides a lovely spot to drink in the sea and countryside views available from your holiday home.
