Couminole Cottage, constructed before the Great Famine, is a beautifully restored traditional Irish cottage. Located on Slea Head Drive, it overlooks Dingle Bay and The Blasket Islands. The cottage is one of the most photographed and painted houses in Ireland and has been featured on postcards, calendars, magazines, and books since 1929.
Area Description
THINGS TO DO:
Walk to the beach you've dreamed about where Ryan's Daughter and Far & Away were filmed; the beautiful Couminole Strand. It's a small beach sheltered from the winds by spectacular l00 foot high cliffs.
Many say the Dingle Peninsula is one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland.
Lots to do nearby:
Golf, boat trips, swim with Fungie the dolphin, fishing, sight seeing, exceptional crafters, art galleries, and shopping in the area. There are many cozy pubs, traditional music, and world-famous restaurants in the area.
Excellent cafe for coffee and lunch right in Couminole: Tig Slea Head. Enjoy their marvelous, slightly different view.
We're only 2 l/2 miles to the Blasket Interpretative Center and the ferry to the Blasket Islands. The Dingle Peninsula (and particularly out west as they refer to our location) has many famous historic, pre-historic architectural sites, castles, beehive huts, and the Gallarus Oratory. There are several museums of natural & local history within a couple of miles.
There are easily enough activities to fill several weeks. We still haven't seen, done them all. Do as little or as much as you want.
