River Lodge 3

We are proud to announce the completion of our three luxury eco-lodges facing the River Ilen in Skibbereen. Another first for Cottages for Couples brings together luxury accommodation that is also good for the environment.

“We stayed in one of the River Lodges and it was absolutely magnificent. The location was stunning, the decor was unique and beautiful, it was an experience like no other.”
