Your West Cork escape at the Schoolhouse Durrus

The Schoolhouse in Durrus offers a spacious one-bedroom apartment with a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, a comfortable sofa bed, and its own private entrance.

Slow Country Living

Welcome to The Schoolhouse, a lovingly restored and character-filled retreat on the edge of Durrus, one of West Cork’s most peaceful and understated coastal villages. This spacious, self-contained apartment occupies part of a former village school and has been carefully restored using recycled and original materials from the building itself.

“shabby chic” Haven

The result is a unique and soulful space that blends rustic charm with a relaxed, “shabby chic” finish which is perfect for guests who appreciate simplicity, history, and the art of slow living.
