Rossbrin and Stouke, West Cork

IT will be a hard job keeping up with the neighbours at this farmhouse buy — but, it’s likely the buyers will in any case be fairly well-heeled, and Hunter wellington-shod.

WATER’S Edge does almost exactly what it says on the tin — it is a West Cork home with sea access, (but not quite frontage) its own moorings, and a south-facing coastline view across Rossbrin Cove to the remnants of an O’Mahony castle.
