About this property

beautiful holiday resort at the south-west coast of Ireland, with swimming-pond,

If you like to relax and switch off completely, my holiday resort will be just the ideal place for you.

It is nearby the sea and approx. 1.4 km from Goleen. The Irish cottage, originally built in 1826 and completely renovated in 1996, is embedded in a gorgeous, 9000 sq. meters park-like garden with palm trees, roses, hydrangeas and rhododendrons. It is a true paradise not only for adults but also for children. From the small stone igloo on top of a hill (at the end of the garden), you will enjoy the most spectacular view of the country-side, the sea and the Fasnet Rock.

The house (200 sq. meters) has been completely renovated and refurbished and is fully equipped with everything you need: spacious living and dining rooms, cosy bedrooms, kitchen utilities and an international library. The modern and environmentally friendly solar heating with floor heating keeps you nice and warm all year round. And in winter you may enjoy a glass of Irish whisky in front of the two open fire places.

On the spacious, tiled patio you find a large stone table, chairs for 8 people and several deck-chairs. From there you overlook the 450 sq. swimming-pond with a wooden platform to sun-bathe.

On cooler days, you may enjoy some time in the sauna which accommodates 4 people. From the relaxing room adjoining the sauna you overlook the garden and the pond.

Paradise in Goleen

If you enjoy nature, beauty and luxury you have to come to Majo’s House in Goleen! Host Jochem has been extremely welcoming providing us with ‘ tips and must see’ information about the area. We are definitely coming back as a week was too short for us. Total relaxation and much privacy. It was lovely to be able to relax in the sauna after a long walk!

We had a lovely stay in Majos House. Jochen has it very well set up, the gardens are beautiful and it is in a very peaceful location, while still being close to amenities. We also much appreciated Jochen’s kind welcome and concern that we had a good stay!

Relaxing surroundings

We had a wonderful week at Jochen's home. Communication was quick and clear from booking, so we had all the information we needed and also Jochen's advice for visiting the area was really helpful. It was lovely to meet him too and hear the history of the house. It's a special home in a stunning part of Ireland. The gardens are an absolute delight and we enjoyed the spacious house as well. Everything was perfect for a most enjoyable break.

About the host

Hosted by Jochen Bischoff

On my first visit to Ireland I fell immediately in love with this country and its wonderful openhearted people. As a logical consequence I soon decided to look for a property to acquire.
In 1996 I bought this wonderful peace of land with its cottage. I had it very carefully renovated and extended to around 200 square meters of living space. Now I spend more than half the year here myself.
