Dreaming of the next bank holiday already? Why not spend it in this villa in Bantry

By Yay Cork May 8, 2019May 7, 2019

That went by far too fast…

We’ve been so spoiled with three-day weekends over the last month we’re getting far too used to the shorter work weeks.

Feeling sorry for yourself that it’s over? Googling when the next Bank Holiday is?

Well, there’s good news on that front; we only have a few weeks to wait before we’ll be getting those long weekend vibes once again; on June 3rd, most offices will shut their doors once more.

That leaves just enough time to make some plans to ensure it’s a good’un.

Our idea of an amazing long weekend? Rounding up a group of friends and heading somewhere to enjoy it together.

And top of our list of ideal locations is this stunning waterfront villa on Bantry Bay.

The Westerly villa is the perfect venue for a getaway with mates. It boasts it’s own private pontoon, mooring for a boat and a large outdoor hot tub.

Incredibly private, the property sits on 1.5 acres of gardens just five kilometres outside of Bantry.

It’s the perfect space for socialising with a large kitchen/dining room and two generously-sized lounge areas to relax in, come evening.

The master bedroom is truly a luxury suite with a cosy seating area and windows facing out towards the water.

It even has it’s own roll-top bath in the room – it doesn’t get much more glamorous than that, now does it?

The home is perfect for large groups and can sleep 12 guests in its six bedrooms.

Four boast their own en suites, and all are decorated impeccably, with views out to the water or over the gardens surrounding the home.

 

Outdoors, guests can enjoy a dip in the large hot tub, which is the perfect spot to take in views of the bay.

It’s also the ideal location to pop a bottle of champers and really celebrate the bank holiday in style.

The five-star rated property rolls down to a private dock for boats or just to sit on and dip your toes in the water – both are encouraged.

Interested? We’d get booking soon if we were you!
