Orchard lodge is a lovely house , set in the beautiful country side of of the Mealagh Valley. It is 7km (10 minute drive) from the seaside Market town of Bantry. In the vicinity of the house there are lovely walking trails, a fishing lake and a pony trekking school. Also lovely views of the country side with the mountains as the backdrop. In the town of Bantry there are large supermarkets, small shops, pubs with traditional music, lots of family restaurants and pubs doing really good food. On each Friday of the month there a street market in Bantry.
