From the owner

Absolutely right on the beach at the quieter north end of Paternoster is our house, Ceol na Mara - Irish for Music of the Waves - and its adjoining studio flat- Ceoleen (Little Music).

Ceol na Mara is a double volume house with a gallery bedroom, garden, balcony and outdoor braai area and direct private access to the beach. Ceoleen is a smaller unit within the same plot but separate from the main house.

.

Ceol na Mara sleeps 4+2. There is a queen bed in the gallery (loft) bedroom with an ensuite shower room. The downstairs bedroom has two extra length singles and an ensuite bathroom with bath. There is a double sleeper couch suitable for children in the living area (which is overlooked by the gallery bedroom) with access to a separate shower room.

Ceoleen sleeps 2+2 with access via an outside staircase. There is a double bed in the separate bedroom and a double sleeper couch suitable for children in the living area. There is one shower room which leads off the kitchen.

We've made sure that both properties are fully equipped, including hair driers, Wi-Fi and TV/DStv. Heating is by the cosy wood burning stove and electric panels.

Please note that the rates quoted are for Ceol na Mara and Ceoleen together. Please enquire for rates for Ceol na Mara alone. Ceoleen is not available for rental on its own.

Please consider your circumstances carefully before making an enquiry and to whether Ceol na Mara and Ceoleen would be suitable for a party of more than six. You may find it overcrowded and lacking in privacy. We’d rather disappoint you now than have you disappointed during your stay.

Best regards

Chris and Michele Mills
