  • A Hut on Top of the World.
  • Views over heaven.
  • Under the Stars.
A unique stay in a Shephards Hut overlooking all of the hills and valleys of West Cork. Just a little piece of heaven on the side of a hill with views to die for. And up the road from 2 Star Michelin Star Restaurant!!! One bedrooms with beds for 4 people. Only up the hill from both Baltimore and the famous Lough Hyne Nature Reserve a beautiful walk away .A short boat trip to both Cape Clear and Sherkin Islands. A great base for seeing all West Cork on both land and sea. :) Sleep under the stars in these cute Shepherds huts in a field overlooking the world. With double insulation and double glazing you’ll be toasty. You have a gas bbq with picnic table outside and a fridge/freezer and cooker inside. Built in toilet and shower . It’s heaven on wheels. :) Dogs are allowed but never on the beds please. :)

Route directions

Here is some advice and directions for you. :) Make sure to stop in Skibbereen food, drink etc and blocks/briquettes/logs and kindling for the stove/fire if you want to use it as the local shop here is small. :) Directions: With Baltimore still about 1 km away you will find yourself driving with the water of Church Strand on your right. You will see a wrecked old fishing boat in the middle of the bay. After passing it, you will come to where the main road takes a 90 degree turn to the right at a sign for Baltimore. Go straight ahead at this junction (signposted Trafraska) leaving the main road and after 100m follow the road around to the left and start climbing up a hill. After about 1 km the road starts to flatten off - keep an eye on the telephone poles on your right. You will come to a pole marked with 3 florescent yellow strips (rings) and a sign for us "Cedar Boathouse" on the corner. Go right at this pole. As you come up that hill we are the house you can see straight in front of you but it is the second entrance on the left. Welcome to the top of the world and your new home Cedar Boathouse. :) Please message me here if you have any questions or get lost. :) Talk soon. :) eircode P81 V225. Stay on the main road to Baltimore until within 10 min. Google can be wild. :)
