Glengarriff is a walkers & cycling paradise. The The Nature Reserve is very near & has many beautiful walks. Many Seals in the harbour surrounding Garnish Island & Ferry service to the island all day . There you can visit the beautiful famous Italian Gardens & look out onto Bantry Bay & Glengarriff Village. Bantry is only 15km from Bantry Town & has many shops & restaurants & a cinema with open country market every Friday. We are also close too Kenmare with its many Bars & Restaurants. The drive from Glengarriff to Kenmare (Kerry) is stunning ,through a tunnel in the mountains, then you are greeted by the Kerry Mountains . The Healey Pass is nearby on The Beara Way. The Beara Way is a drive you must do whilst in the area . Totally breathtaking scenery. You can also do as much walking as you like on The Beara Way which stretches across the peninsula approx 180 km in total. For The Golf enthusiast there is a beautiful 9 hole Golf Course with stunning views over the bay . Maureen O' Hara lived in the grounds surrounding the golf course for years & just recently moved to America. An 18 hole Golf Course designed by Christie O'Connor Junior is equally as stunning in Bantry.

    Mary and Chris are great hosts ! I was there for 3 days and they told me what I could do near Glengarriff, what are the best restaurants... They spend time with us during breakfast, which is very well cooked by the chef Chris !
    If I had to go to Glengarriff one more time, I would immediately choose this B&B !

    Mary, Chris and Matthew are extremely kind. They do everything to satisfy you. They do not count their time to talk with you. It’s so important when You want to improve your langage. Every day, they gave me good some advices to discover the best spots in the area. What about the food ? If i tell you that Chris is a chef, you will have understood that breakfast and dinner are excellent ! The house is situated in a very quiet place. Eventually, i don’t see where i could remove points to Chris and Mary. They are perfect. Thank you both ! I will come back.

    J’ai passé un super séjour chez Chris et Mary !! Ils sont aux petits soins pour vous et prennent le temps de discuter
    Chris qui est chef cuisinier fait très très bien à manger
    La chambre est très grande avec une salle de bain privative, rien à dire c’est nickel
    Leur maison est très bien située pour visiter les alentours
    Je resterai avec grand plaisir chez Chris et Mary pour plusieurs semaines tellement on s’y sent bien, comme à la maison tout simplement
    Merci pour leur accueil et leur gentillesse

    Nous avons beaucoup aimé notre séjour chez Mary et Chris. Nous avons été chaleureusement accueillis. Nous avons apprécié particulièrement les échanges riches et amicaux. Les breakfasts faits maison étaient excellents et copieux. Nous recommandons fortement cet hôte d’autant que la péninsule de Beara est magnifique et mérite qu’on s’y attarde plusieurs jours.

    Chris and Mary made us very welcome, their house is modern and bright, and in a quiet location, but close to Glengarriff.
