Maria’s Schoolhouse is a beautiful converted schoolhouse set in lush countryside and a few minutes away from unspoilt beaches and inlets, popular with both picnicking families and kayakers.
Union Hall village is also a few minutes walk and has a supermarket, post office and 5 pubs. Maria's decor is bold and vibrant and the living room/dining room is vast with a huge cathedral style ceiling. There is a self catering kitchen but delicious, organic breakfasts and meals are available on request.
There is a mix of en-suite family and double rooms and one dormitory. We're a ten minute drive from Skibbereen town, and 5 minutes from Castletownsend and Glandore villages.
Apart from the facilities detailed below, we also have a babysitting service and a children's play area.
Leisure facilities in and around the village include golf, tennis, pitch & putt, horse riding, sea kayaking, as well as sea-angling and trout fishing in nearby lakes. There are plenty of sheltered coves for swimming and wonderful opportunities for coastal and woodland walking.
Within walking distance of Maria's Schoolhouse is Ceim Hill Museum, with artefacts from the stone-age onwards. There are also a number of little known beauty spots such as Carrigillihy inlet, Squince Harbour and Rabbit Island. Myross and Blind Harbour are beautiful inlets ideal for windsurfing and canoeing. From Reen Pier you have access to magnificent Castlehaven Bay and Rineen Estuary. The Schoolhouse overlooks Lake Cluhir and the ruins of Cahergal Fort still preside over the valley from the hill above.
