Situated on the Wild Atlantic Way and seafront, the adult-only Seafort Luxury Hideaway offers guests panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and seascape. The guesthouse is located in a quiet setting in Bantry, in the County Cork region, 29 km from Skibbereen.

Rarely do we stay at accommodation that’s sets a new benchmark. Seafort did just that in so many ways. The property quality, facilities, cleanliness and comfort - just perfection. The host was like a friend who was so welcoming, gave us the space we needed, but was there to give us tips on trips and sites in the area whenever we needed it. The tranquil and stunning environment complimented the best scrambled eggs I had for breakfast! No hesitation in recommending this stay to anyone visiting West Cork!

    Perfect location - Bantry can be a great starting point for many hiking trails in the middle of beautiful irish countryside. Lovely host - Therese was very welcoming, she offered us tea and coffee right after we arrived and made us delicious breakfast the next day. Room was clean and comfy, we had a private bathroom across the hall. Thank you very much!

    We had a wonderful stay at Atlantic Shore. Barbara is a wonderful person who is taking care of her guests. Me and my mum had the twin room which was comfortable and had a nice bathroom. The breakfast is served in the kitchen with the other guests and was delicious. Barbara made fresh eggs and salmon every morning- thank you :-)! She also made our beds every day, very thoughtful. We highly recommend this peaceful and quiet place.

    Toby and Liz were super hosts, great to share ideas and locations to visit. A lovely home, very quiet area on a peaceful country lane. Easy access to lots of areas/activities along the three peninsulas of Mizen, Sheep’s Head and Beara. Bantry itself, just 5 mins by car, a lovely, easy-going town, great to just ramble around. We would love to get back to explore more!!
