German Country Homes Magazine Features Sheep’s Head

January 22, 2018 by Dunmanus

German country homes magazine germany

Word about the beauty and character of the Sheep’s Head Way has reached readers of Germany’s Country Home magazine

A beautifully illustrated article documents the author’s visits to some of Ireland’s EDEN destinations – otherwise known as European Destinations of Excellence.

The Sheep’s Head was named as an EDEN destination for sustainable tourism in 2009 and, as the article shows, it remains an unspoilt gem on Ireland’s coastline to this day. The feature introduces its German audience to Dunbeacon Pottery, walks with David Ross from Top of the Rock Pod Pairc and the fun to be had with Bantry Bay Pony Trekking.

Bantry House looks simply stunning in the gorgeous photos that accompany the article, and there are lovely mentions for The Fish Kitchen, Blairscove House and Heron Gallery Café and Gardens. Of course, Durrus Cheese also wins a positive mention!

Wonderful Hospitality

The author reserves special praise for the wonderful hospitality to be found at the award-winning Carbery Guest Lodge where the author was made very welcome. We hope the many readers of the magazine will consider making their own journeys to our beautiful part of the world to see for themselves why the Sheep’s Head is a little bit of EDEN right here on the Wild Atlantic Way.
