Our House, the ideal location: Our house is indeed a unique beachfront home, on a peninsula overlooking Kinsale itself, surrounded by heritage and the sea, with direct access to a very safe and sandy beach, secure parking and a large green area for kids to play. Relax !

The Open Plan Lounge is above all spacious and bright – the new velux windows allow in the morning light, the beams are painted cream in colour and rise 45 degrees to the double story height of the relaxing lounge and dining area. The new oak floor, exposed beams, cream paneling – the lanterns & leather couches – even the wall mounted plasma screen - they allow for a relaxing atmosphere.

The accompanying dining area comprises of a large pine table and 8 carved chairs – with views out the south facing full height window –allowing maximum light to flood the room.

Also on this floor there is a full bathroom and easy access to the fully equipped kitchen. The full size kitchen is well equipped with a Washer, Dryer, Dishwasher, Hob, Oven, Microwave, Fridge, Freezer & all general kitchen equipment. There is also a table and 4 chairs for extra visitors.

You now have choices, either the stairs up or the stairs down...both excellently finished. The Stairs Down, with inlaid teak paneling & new woolen carpets leads to the 2 lower bedrooms and 2 en suites. All of the downstairs rooms have hardwood maple flooring fully tiled bathrooms.

The first bedroom on the lower floor is a large double room, with pitch pine furniture, maple floor and a large three piece en suite.

All bed lined is the same design and blue in colour in keeping with the nautical theme throughout.

The second bedroom on the lower floor is extra large in size, with a large double bed and a single bed, again all antique pine furniture on a maple floor. Some of the old beams are again exposed in the two downstairs bedrooms and hallway.

Each of the two lower rooms are en suite with quality fittings. There is also a spare pullout bed as an extra stored under the stair case just in case there is a need for an extra visitor.

The second staircase rises upwards, lit be a new velux window and cushioned with new woolen carpets, and as with all the house freshly painted. Overhead you can see some of the old support beams some almost 2 feet thick ! Also on the upper floor is a large hot press for extra storage.

Both the upper floor bedrooms have the exposed beams, natural in color giving a nice contrast to the cream colors below. To the right is a nice twin bedroom, newly carpeted, with antique pine furniture, and additional old style glass-block windows to below.

The other upper floor bedroom is a good size double, again with exposed natural beams, pine furniture and a large velux window providing subtle brightness. Both these bedrooms share a separate bathroom with electric shower.

However relaxed or active you wish to be on your holiday -Kinsale offers you multiple choices (land or sea based) and allows you to take things at your own pace.
