Yes, the beds were great, the bathrooms were lovely, the scenery was gorgeous and the food was yummy and plentiful, but what Charlie and Julia McCarthy made this special! I wanted to hike but came from India, dreadfully unprepared: They leant me a coat and walking sticks. Charlie carefully set out hiking routes and showed me how to use his... More

Spectacular scenery up on a bluff overlooking Bantry Bay with the mountain covered peninsula on the other side of the water. Our hostess was amazing and their house was beautiful. So many hills to explore by foot or by car. Quaint little villages on the other side of the peninsula with an excellent restaurant called The Heron serving very tasty... More

A group of us stayed here in the middle of a long walk on Sheep's Head. This is an absolute gem of a place. The welcome could not have been warmer, nor the view from the double rooms and the garden more spectacular. I only wish we could have stayed (much much) longer.

Stayed here with my husband for a weekend & I must say we were extended a warm welcome from proprieters Julie-Ann & Charlie, nothing was too much trouble. Our hosts were also very informative & provided us with details of what was available to do in the area. Our room was beautiful with lovely clean crisp bed linen and the... More

I was sad to leave this B&B -- on our 10 day trip along the Sheep's Head Way, we stayed at several different B&Bs, but Seamount took the top spot. Charlie, the owner, was knowledgeable of the walkways and the area sites, and welcomed our group of 12 with hospitality only the Irish could do so well. We stayed two... More

A group of five Sheepshead-walking women stayed at Sea Mount for two nights. The rooms, the food, the conviviality of other guests was excellent. When we showed disappointment that the scones we anticipated at our arrival had been eaten by other guests, our hostess was diligent about making sure we always had plenty of them the rest of the time....

We stayed here for a single night midweek. The location of the house is just spectacular. As with many old houses in this area, the house is located to minimise the effects of wind and to maximise any sun. It's nestled into a hollow by the coast, but our room still had an amazing view back over the Durrus and... More

Seamount Farm is an out-of-the-ordinary Irish B&B experience. The location is stunning and the rooms comfy and clean. We really appreciated the peaceful location and opportunity to relax while enjoying the Sheep's Head peninsula. Charlie is very knowledgeable about local hiking and even loaned us a walking stick for our fabulous hike out to the Sheep's Head lighthouse. Don't miss... More

The B&B was in an amazing location. Our room overlooked the ocean and their beautiful garden. The rooms were decorated nicely and kept very clean. They were always willing to give us information about things to do and places to eat in the area. Breakfast was delicious!

This is a simple but charming old house, with all the modern conveniences you might expect at such a reasonable price point. The standards of cleanliness & presentation are very good. The breakfast was superb, of excellent quality with a good selection of fresh fruit, cereals, lovely soda bread, and a full Irish breakfast (same as English breakfast for those... More
