Wild Hideaways

Laharanshermeen, Bantry, Cork, P75p599, Ireland

Love at First Sight

Love in the Wild Wild Hideaways is a secluded, adults-only retreat in the heart of West Cork, Ireland, created for couples seeking romance, privacy, and a deep connection with nature. Set in a peaceful mountain valley, our six luxury lodges feature private decks, alfresco baths under the stars, and beautifully considered interiors designed for comfort and calm. Couples can unwind in the handcrafted sauna and cold-plunge suite, book restorative spa treatments, or slow down with woodland walks, sunsets, and quiet evenings together. Wild Hideaways is intentionally low-key and uncrowded, offering space to reconnect without distraction—ideal for romantic escapes, anniversaries, honeymoons, and intimate getaways rooted in luxurious simplicity.

Romance

Romance at Wild Hideaways is unhurried and deeply personal. Wake to birdsong, soak together in an outdoor bath beneath the stars, share a sauna session, or walk hand in hand to an ancient stone circle at sunset. Evenings are quiet and candlelit, with space to talk, rest, and simply be together—no schedules, no distractions.

Your Stay

Each of the six luxury lodges is thoughtfully designed with natural materials, soft textures, and private outdoor space. All lodges feature alfresco baths, comfortable living areas, and views across woodland and valley out towards the stunning Bantry Bay. The retreat also includes a sauna and cold-plunge suite, a peaceful wellness sanctuary with full spa menu, and quiet outdoor spaces for reflection.

What to Do

Couples can enjoy forest walks, stone circle visits, stargazing, sea swims, or simply staying in and doing very little. We can also arrange local experiences such as foraging walks, sea safaris, kayaking, or forest bathing. The nearby coastline, villages, and islands offer gentle exploration without the crowds.

The Food of Love

Guests can self-cater in their lodge, bring favourite treats, or order curated food hampers through our guest app. From relaxed breakfasts to indulgent add-ons and nearby dining recommendations, food at Wild Hideaways is simple, seasonal, and unrushed—meant to be enjoyed together, at your own pace.
