Would 100% stay again if we are back down in Cork for another holiday.”

Le sauna est la cerise sur le gâteau, il permet une vue sur la baie (des fois sous la pluie) tout en etant à 55°c au chaud

Situated just 150 metres from the sea, our caravan is set on a beautiful mature acre of land with total privacy. A perfect opportunity to switch off and enjoy everything nature has to offer.
Relax in our sauna, take to the ocean in our kayaks or take advantage of the many coastal walks from our doorstep. With Clonakilty, Inchydoney and Courtmacsherry all within 10 kms, our place is also the perfect place to retreat for a weekend of exploring West Cork. Suitable for 3/4 people.
Our caravan is located on our property overlooking the ocean at the idyllic Ballinglanna Bay in beautiful West Cork. We have a little over an acre of land surrounded by mature trees and green fields.
The caravan is only a few years old so it has all the mod cons that older caravans wouldn’t have such as insulation, double glazed windows and ducted heating throughout, making it very cosy.
It is equipped with everything you need such as a hot shower and bathroom and kitchen and dining space. If you haven’t tried staying in a caravan before, it’s also a great opportunity to give the caravan life a go!
Our location is incredibly peaceful and is the perfect place to slow down and have a little reset.
There is an abundance to offer in the area but some of our favourite things to do are:
- Have a slow morning, cook a wholesome breakfast and sit out in the sun to eat.
- Have a swim on high tide at the boat ramp just 150 metres from the caravan.
- Walk to Simon’s Cove via the cliffs from Ballinglanna Bay
- Kayak in the bay and explore the area by the sea
- Go for a sunset stroll to Ring Pier in Clonakilty Harbour just a 3km drive or walk from the caravan.
- Have dinner outside in the beautiful Courtmacsherry Hotel while overlooking the bay.
- Go to Incydoney for a walk on the beach.
Whether you decide to completely chill out or tackle some of the activities above, you’ll definitely enjoy your stay!
Ballinglanna is a small fishing village situated just 7km from Clonakilty.
It is an idyllic location and an incredibly peaceful place.
If you love all things about the sea and nature this is the place for you!
