The children will love the model railway village with its own Choo Choo land train to 'Toot Toot' them around the town and down to the beach.
Watersport centres are close by offering kayaking and the latest craze - stand up paddle boarding. Or if you have your own, you can paddle board and kayak at high tide in the bay.

Situated in a 'Special Protection Area' and on Ireland's charismatic 'Wild Atlantic Way', The Bay House is the perfect spot from which to explore West Cork and the beauty of Ireland.

Summary: Lovely house in a lovely setting. Well equipped, very clean and with lots of space. Clonakilty is within walking distance and has loads of good shops and pubs (with music). The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the coastline is stupendous with lovely beaches (e.g. Inchydoney and Long strand) and Mizen Head is well worth the trip. Weather was fantastic - which unfortunately meant there was no surf! We can strongly recommend going whale watching from Courtmacsherry - didn't see any whales but lots of dolphins and a great excursion. Overall a great holiday in a lovely house.

Summary: Loved our stay at THE BAY HOUSE it was the most comfortable place I have ever had the pleasure of staying in. The position and cleanliness were second to none. I can not recommend this place enough and only 45 min drive from Cork Airport. Clonakilty it a great town with an array of amazing individual shops and restaurants. There is a Lidl supermarket just a mile and half from the property so if run short of anything it’s soon sorted. Will definitely be returning.

Summary: We had a wonderful holiday in early August in the Bay House. The house had everything we needed and is suited to all ages. As the weather was good we ate outside most evenings using the patio and BBQ. It is a kilometre from Clonakilty and this allowed us to walk to shops and restaurants. The view from the property is amazing, especially when the sun was shining and the tide was in. We would highly recommend this property and hope to return to it next summer.

Summary: We had a fantastic holiday here. It really is a beautiful place. The house itself a lovely old stone cottage which has been modernised and we really enjoyed spending time "at home". We couldn't fault the cleanliness and we were all very happy with our bedrooms, which were all ensuites. The location is unbeatable. The house looks out over the lawn onto the bay and it so peaceful and relaxing. The town of Clonakilty is easily walkable (or it was very easy to get a taxi) we found several excellent places to eat out. The Farm restaurant was a favourite. We also went across the water to Ring as there is a fantastic fish restaurant there which was recommended to us. We took lots of beach walks and there is a pub right on the beach too for lunch. We hired a car and had a great time driving further west along the Wild Atlantic Way to Baltimore, Kinsale and Schull. We highly recommend a stay here. The house, location and area ticks all the boxes. We will definitely be returning.

Summary: This is the second time we have stayed at this gem of a house. It is the perfect holiday location. House is beautiful. Wonderful views. Everything you need to hand. We stayed here last Summer and couldn't wait to come back. So relaxing looking at the bay and the horses. Clonakilty and Inchydonny are fantastic. Will be back soon.

Summary: We had a wonderful time at The Bay House. The house itself was perfect with everything we could have needed. Really nicely decorated and a fantastic location. We loved looking out over the bay as we had our morning coffee. This is definitely top of our list of places to stay in Ireland. Clonakilty is a great little town. Lots to do and very friendly. Look forward to returning again sometime.
