West Cork has attracted weekenders and longer-term holidaymakers for generations due to a reputation for good times and good food. For those for whom this region has more allure than the Med, this two-bed corner apartment, with uninterrupted views over Lady's Beach, Inchydoney, could be the perfect coastal base for exploring this scenic region.

Accommodation consists of an openplan living/dining room, kitchen with French doors to the balcony, two bedrooms (master en-suite), and main bathroom.

The town of Clonakilty is 10 minutes' drive away; award-winning Inchydoney Lodge and Spa Hotel is also close by. Also within easy reach are the Italian Gardens on Garnish Island, and the Armada Centre at Bantry House.
