Stop midway between Kinsale and Timoleague, on coastal route R600, for a meal at this farmhouse, which has been renovated in a cool, minimalist style and converted into a restaurant. The two small but airy and well-lighted dining rooms—one blue and one green—have private sitting rooms for pre-dinner drinks next to an open fireplace, a treat that sets the tone of gentle pampering that typifies the highly professional co-owner Kerrin Relja's hospitality. Menu highlights from talented Croatian owner-chef Michael Relja include garlic prawn salad, lobster risotto, a fine roast loin of lamb served with Roman gnocchi, and, as one of the top seasonal desserts, summer fruits with sabayon.
