#### Location
Located in one of South West Ireland's most picturesque harbour villages, Shorecliffe House benefits from a particularly stunning locale. You can see the Glandore harbour from the house and watch the pretty sailing and fishing boats dropping their anchors throughout the day. As it's in the path of the Gulf Stream, there's a mild climate all year round, a factor which is reflected in the array of flora and fauna you'll see as you explore the area.

Why not start your trip with a visit to a quintessential Irish pub? Casey's is just 70m from the front gates of the house. Run by three siblings, it's a wonderfully authentic and friendly experience. There's heaps more fabulous pubs and restaurants worth visiting in the area – note that it's worth booking in the summer months as West Cork is a hive of activity at this time. Don't miss the farmers market in Skibereen on Saturday mornings to get the best of the local produce.

The house is also within reaching distance of some well renowned music venues; Connolly's bar in Leap, De Barra in Clonakilty and Levis's Corner house in Ballydeho. Levi's has even been voted Best Pub in Ireland!

If history's your thing, you can head 2km from the house to visit the Drombeg Stone Circle which is the oldest megalithic stone circle in Europe.

If you want activities for you and the kids, you won't be disappointed. There's whale watching, a sailing school and a riding school nearby, and canoeing, windsurfing, paddle boarding and surf lessons can be arranged in a lovely local lagoon. You'll be spoilt for choice with the array of stunning walks along the coast of the Atlantic too, not to mention the stunning beaches in the surrounding area.
