Vacation rentals in Durrus

Lovely home and beautiful grounds. We appreciated that mary had the heat and hot water turned on before we arrived. She had a binder of helpful tips on operating appliances etc. and suggestions of nearby restaurants and attractions. She was accommodating when we asked for early checkin.

As we were arriving at 4am, Denise kindly upgraded us to No 1, because it was easy to access as right next to the car park. The house has been recently refurbished. It had everything we needed, perfectly clean, very comfortable beds, fluffy towels, beautiful views. The welcome pack of tea, soda bread and biscuits was very welcome as we were unable to buy supplies on the way as we drove through the night from Dublin airport. The drive was from Dublin was easy, the check in was easy, the house was perfect and our hosts generously allowed us to be relaxed about our check out time too, which was much appreciated. There's a shop and a hotel with restaurant moments away, it's a longer walk into Killarney but doable. It's a very beautiful part of the world. We were visiting relatives nearby so hope to return soon.

Denis is a wonderful host. The house is amazing. The location breathtaking. The whole group had a very comfortable and peaceful stay. Exactly what we needed. We are definitely going to return next year.

We stayed at Rock Cottage in the middle of January and although the weather was cold, the welcome from Jacqueline and Jonathan couldn’t have been warmer. We received a tour of the property and grounds on our arrival, and the home-made banana bread and selection of local breakfast produce was very welcome after a long drive (there was even some treats for our dog Harris). The kitchen was well equipped, the bathroom large with a good powerful shower (again, there was some lovely local toiletries supplied), and snuggling up in front of the real fire on cold nights was very cosy. For warmer days, there is a lovely outdoor furniture set where you can enjoy the sun surrounded by well-established gardens. You have access to a laundry room with two washers and dryers, iron etc and this was fantastic especially for our extended stay. Jacqueline and Jonathan are friendly, responsive to any requests, have great knowledge of the area, and were most welcoming. Lovley stay.

The most gorgeous location and the most welcoming host & the team are amazing, thank you! Breathtaking views and very comfortable and beautiful accommodation with everything you might need on a little getaway. We didn’t book the sauna or the hot tub in advance, so would recommend checking with the team beforehand. Had a great time exploring the beaches nearby too. Highly recommend!

Phil’s property was the perfect night of comfort and warmth after a few nights camping. It has everything you need, and the bed was extremely comfy, so I had a great nights sleep. The bathroom was spotless.

This house was perfect for our needs. As a large group of adults, the number of en-suite rooms was great. The house had a wonderful large kitchen/living space, perfect for gatherings. The house was warm and beds were comfortable. Barbara was quick to respond and very helpful with our check-in and check-out arrangements. There was plenty of equipment and a well stocked cupboard of herbs and spices and odd bits that you need but don’t want to buy just for a few days. The location was perfect - 10 min walk to the centre of Bantry and the views are amazing from the house (despite the rain). We will definitely be back.

Lovely cosy cottage, perfect for our needs!
