The rooms were extremely clean and had lovely decorations throughout the house. I would recommend this B&B to anyone travelling into the area, especially with having such a hospitable host like Tom.

There was nothing not to like about this lovely place. It is close to everything in Kinsale. Our room was beautifully laid out and spacious, every little detail had been thought of and the shower was great. Breakfast was very generous with fresh fruit, cereals, yoghurt and 3 options of delicious cooked breakfasts on offer. Maeve the lovely host couldn't have been more kind and helpful, on one morning we had to leave early and she offered to make us breakfast to take with us. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this lovely place to stay in Kinsale.

    What a fantastic property! We were greeted personally and given all of the information that we needed. The property was lovely and the location (between Kinsale and Cork City) was perfect. The small village center has a convenience store, petrol station, coffee shop, chippy, and a small pub. We loved interacting with the family dogs and horses. We would not hesitate to return.

    Great view, and a lovely spacious house! You get all the necessities, such as tea, sugar, handwash, cleaning products, etc., and the kitchen is fully equipped too, so you can easily cook something yourself or have a nice barbecue outside. The agency, Trident Holiday Homes, is also very quick to help with questions and problems, and both Mairéad and Jacqui have been a pleasure to deal with!
