If your idea of the perfect break is switching off completely and sinking into your private hot tub, that suits us just fine. For those who’d like to explore a little further, we’ve partnered with a small selection of hand-picked activity providers who share our love of West Cork and our commitment to unforgettable experiences. From gentle adventures to something a little more exhilarating, these experiences are designed to add an extra layer of magic to your Cottages for Couples stay. Some activities are weather dependent, others can be enjoyed year-round. All are booked directly with the providers, and each offers our guests a special rate.
Whether you choose total relaxation or a taste of adventure, we’re confident it will make your time together even more memorable. Give them a try – we know you’ll love them.
