It’s a ready-made live-in business.

A luxury glamping site in North Cork has hit the market at €695,000… and it comes with a detached four-bedroom residence.

Mount Hillary Holiday Pods in Curraghrour West, Banteer are situated approximately 14 km to the west of Mallow, midway between the villages of Banteer and Lombardstown.

“This is a picturesque, sylvan setting on the northern foothills of Mount Hillary.” say the auctioneers, ERA Downey McCarthy.

“The site occupies an elevated position which offers commanding views over the lush neighbouring farmlands.”

Fully operational and ready for bookings, the glamping site boasts three state-of-the-art eco pods, offering a luxury glamping experience that includes WIFI, self-catering facilities, a kitchenette, ensuite shower, double bed, and sofa bed.

Each pod can currently be booked for around €99 per night on Airbnb, where the business has dozens of positive reviews.

There’s an outdoor BBQ area, a fire pit with seating, access to laundry facilities, a communal kitchen, and sheltered onsite entertainment areas where guests can kick back and relax after a day spent visiting local attractions such as Ballyhass Activity Centre, Killarney National Park and Blarney Castle.

A detached studio could be transformed into a fourth pod and there’s also a detached workshop extending to 190 sq.m. with a separate entrance and a fully fenced free-range chicken run.

The site is for sale by private treaty guiding at €695,000.
