We should have arrived earlier.

The location is overlooking the ocean! Nothing beats that. Fiona’s communication beforehand was excellent. The bed was super comfy and the ingredients to have a quick brekkie was much appreciated

All good

A lovely place to relax and enjoy the amazing countryside, with a beautiful beach literally yards from the front door. Fiona is a very friendly and efficient host . Would happily recommend The Lookout

Nothing not to like.

Lovely double room and en suite with a fridge and tv. Tea, coffee, bread, jam, butter and milk are provided as well as towels and shampoo, shower gel etc. Plenty of parking and just a short walk to beach and pub. Beautiful location and Fiona was very helpful and friendly!

That we wernt able to stay longer

I cannot recommend the venue or its owners highly enough! I will be honest and say we did not have any expectations at all before staying as this was always going to be just a mid point stay over part of our trip around Ireland and we booked it because we wanted something easy and cost effective. Turns out it is going to be the best place, location and experience we could have asked for! We fell in love with Tragumma and most definitely will be coming back! The hosts were lovely and friendly and Paddy the Labrador was just perfect! Thank you Fiona And your family. This is what the true meaning of.a “hidden gem” is!

Fridge was a bit noisy at night time.

Beautiful views, very quiet and clean, and of course lovely Paddy, the golden labrador. Fiona was so helpful and made us feel really welcomed.

Perhaps a single wardrobe to hang a few items up in. Other than that we were very comfy and didnt need anything. Slight issue with door lock but in South Cork doesnt really seem to matter!

The instructions how to find the place were spot on. Always helps The location would be hard to improve upon The family and Paddy the dog especially were super welcoming. As was paddys girlfriend Shower was simple to use and very effective Booked at very short notice. Fiona could not have been more helpful

The host was super nice, she helped us find a place to have dinner since it was quite late when we arrived. The location is amazing! We also loved Paddy. The room had lots of hygiene products and food.

We loved meeting Fiona, the owner, and her dog Paddy and Paddy's good neighbour friend. We loved the remote cute area above the harbour where the Lookout was located. There was a very friendly pub within a 3 minute walk down a little hill which served food in the evening. The area was very scenic, with cliffs and waves crashing on the rugged shoreline. There were a number of walking trails nearby, which Fiona described in a booklet in the room.

A few towel rails and a chair, stool or small bench to put your towel or clothes on in the spacious bathroom would be a great addition.

Fiona is a terrific host! She made us feel right at home in her lovely little suite. Although she makes it clear she doesn’t do breakfasts, she is more than generous - we found bread, milk, butter, jams, coffee, tea, cereal and biscuits in the room. We made the suggestion that a small table would be a good addition (the outdoor table and chairs are not always an option in Ireland!) and she ordered one right away! It didn’t come in time for us, but I expect it will be there for her next guests. Now that’s what I call a responsive host! There’s a toaster and kettle, but no microwave. The bathroom sink is where you wash dishes. Tragumna is a little gem of a community and we enjoyed an excellent meal in the pub. There’s a swimming spot just at the foot of the lane. This stretch of coast is not so touristy as Kerry, Dingle or Galway and yet just as lovely. Mizen Head and Barley Cove make an excellent day trip, and even closer is Lough Hyne with warm swimming and a wonderful hike up Knockomagh Hill for great views. Walks or drives in either direction from Tragumna’s lovely beach will bring you to more beautiful coastal scenery. We stayed three nights and could easily have stayed longer and explored more. Lidl at Skibbereen is a short drive for supplies.
