Ahakista Cottage (II11376), Ahakista, Co. Cork

This idyllic country cottage has room for large families or groups of friends in its four bedrooms, and boasts three bathrooms as well as an open fire and a garden with a stream. Enjoy days out exploring the Sheep's Head Peninsula, including its spectacular coastal walks, sandy beaches and the vibrant town of Bantry. The charm and comfort of this gorgeous holiday property are apparent the moment you step through the door. In the welcoming lounge, the open fire is the focal point, surrounded by soft seating and dark-wood ceiling beams. Throw a log on the fire and sit back while you enjoy a DVD, read or simply catch up on your day. A delightful kitchen includes a range-style cooker as well as a microwave and dishwasher, while old-fashioned implements hung on the walls set a traditional scene. When you've cooked something tasty, serve it up in the dining room, with its wooden table and chairs, complemented by gingham curtains. Head up the stairs at bedtime and you'll find four delightful bedrooms - a double and three twins, some with sloping ceilings and beams - sharing two bathrooms and a shower room. You can enjoy a picnic on the patio or wander through the partially enclosed garden to find the stream at the bottom.
