Luxury 5 bedroom home with outdoor jacuzzi and indoor sauna

Located just a short stroll from either Arundel’s or the Tin pub and the harbour. Drive through the solid timber electric gates up to the impressive house. This is a brand-new property lovingly built by its owner on a wonderful 5-acre woodland site with both an outdoor jacuzzi and an indoor sauna. Designed to blend in beautifully with its surroundings, this home has been built to be environmentally conscious using the most efficient modern technologies.

The kitchen and dining areas are set to the rear of the house with large sliding patio doors leading out onto the private south facing terrace, overlooking the woodland and river, with garden furniture, woodfire pizza oven and BBQ. From the Terrace area you can access a wooden pavilion with seating, for quiet appreciation of the woodlands and river. Our guests will also enjoy full use of an outdoor hot tub/ jacuzzi to allow for relaxing soak after a busy day site seeing.

The kitchen is a large and spacious area, yet it manages to still be a cosy space and woodburning insert stove certainly helps create that feeling. It is very well equipped with everything you will need including an electric oven, microwave, kettle, toaster, dishwasher and all the crockery, cutlery, glassware and cooking equipment you will need during your stay. There is a large island unit with four stools and there is also another sitting area looking out towards the woods and beyond. 

In the winter-time you can catch glimpses of the sea, however when the foliage is back on the trees in the Spring, you are treated to complete privacy in your own little haven in West Cork!

The dining room has a large table which was created using the wood from a felled ash tree on the site – a beautiful homage to the original site. There are seats for up to 8 people, along with a bench which can be pulled out to seat another few people. This room also has sliding patio doors out onto the south facing terrace so while sitting at the table you can still feel like you are part of the surrounding woodland.

There is a separate utility room with a washing machine, tumble dryer and large fridge freezer. Most of the appliances are made by Bosch.

The sitting room overlooks the south facing terrace area with double door openings, the beechwood flooring was created from trees felled from the site with great characteristic features. It has a warm and cosy wood burning stove, couches and TV.

WiFi is available free of charge to guests and there is full mobile phone coverage both of which can be turned off if you wish to be disconnected from the outside world.

With 5 bedrooms, this home can sleep 10-11 people very comfortably. 
Bedroom one is downstairs and it has a king sized bed. It has access to the downstairs bathroom with a walk-in shower. The remaining 4 bedrooms are located upstairs. The master bedroom is very spacious and has lots of storage. At certain times of the year you can see over towards the harbour. It has a king size bed and en suite with shower. The third bedroom has an en suite shower and king bed. The fourth room with two single beds. The fifth is a spacious room with a double and single bed. The main bathroom upstairs has a bath with a shower over it.
Upstairs there is a large landing area with a seating area, perfect for relaxing with a good book in peace and quiet. Not only this, but there is a sauna for your use during your stay. Wonderful for heating up the bones after a dip in the sea or after a long walk!

Set in 5-acre tranquil site which is comprised of meandering woodland walks along a riverbank which is home to a wide variety of wildlife such as trout, herons and otters, perfect for exploring and enjoying this very special pocket of West Cork. For this reason, children will need careful supervision at all times when playing outside as the river is not fenced in. There is a barbeque at this property.

An Amazing Month in West Cork!
Damien and Niamh were amazing hosts, and the home is everything and more! Travelling with handicapped parents is never easy, but the two made my father-in-law's stay comfortable and simple -- Damien went so far as to build a temporary ramp on the back patio to allow the wheelchair easy access. We were at Beechwood for a month, and it allows both the space of a larger home, with the cozy feel of a small cottage. It's a 5-minute walk to the local pub, with rocky beaches and standing stones just a few minutes more. Am easy location to start from, with Cork and Kilarney around 90 minutes away. We seem to end up in Ireland every year, and we felt like we made two new friends in Damien and Niamh, and we look forward to seeing them again, and staying at their wonderful home.
