Cork: soggiorni in cottage

We had a wonderful stay at the Beach House! Location, location, location is what it was all about, just stunning! Great outdoor and indoor space for all of the family. We all enjoyed the sauna and it was just a pity that the hot tub was not in use, but it did not spoil anything. The only thing to be mindful of is the shortage of hot water when taking a shower, which i think has been mentioned in previous reviews. However, overall it's the most amazing location and house for a break in West Cork and we really hope we will be back one summer in the future!

Loved the house and amenities, the hydrobath and sauna are amazing and the view is beautiful. So nice chilling out in the jacuzzi looking at the mountains and stars

We had a wonderful stay at Gerard’s cottage! It was the perfect getaway. We especially loved the hot tub with the picturesque surroundings, so relaxing! It’s also super close to Clonakilty town and nearby beaches 🙌☺️

Myself and my partner had an incredible stay at ardnavaha cottages and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to visit clonakilty. We found the setting itself to be idyllic and the cottage to be very clean and comfortable. After such an lovely stay we will definitely be back.

We just spent 3 nights at Bridgeview Cottage and honestly wish it had been longer! Grace was very communicative and helpful and left fresh scones, butter, jam and milk which we enjoyed. The house is beautifully finished, spacious and airy. The setting is peaceful - lots of trees, nice views across the green valley and quiet apart from the sound of birdsong. The hot tub was a welcome bonus and was ready to use from the time we arrived which was a thoughtful touch. The house is nice and close to Clonakilty and many shops and services. The only remotely negative thing I would say (for other guests benefit) is that the spiral stairs have pointy bits on which my clothes go caught on almost every time I went down them, so just to be aware I'm case of snags! Aside from that a perfect few days and we would love to come back, we barely scratched the surface of what West Cork has to offer!

Didn’t want to leave ☺️

I had a wonderful experience staying at Owenie's cottage! From the moment I arrived, everything was exactly as described—spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the essentials (and then some). The bed was super comfortable, the Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, and I appreciated the thoughtful touches like the chocolates and breakfast items left for us. The location was ideal—quiet, safe. Communication with the host was seamless. They were incredibly responsive, helpful. The Jacuzzi was also an excellent addition to the stay. Whether you're visiting for work or leisure, I’d highly recommend this property. I would stay here again without hesitation!

We all had an amazing time at the tag retreat cottage! The place is clean and beautiful, location is amazing (3 minutes drive to nice sandy beach perfect for swimming 🙂), amazing fenced in garden very secure for pets, hot tub that is on at all times and was the absolute highlight of our trip! Plus we had the cutest little sheep as neighbours 😍 All in all a wonderful trip and we can’t wait to be back! Sarah the host is so lovely and responsive, she couldn’t do enough to make us feel welcome in her beautiful cottage. We’ve been to many Airbnbs in the Irish countryside but this is absolutely the best of the best.

Excellent place. Our host Keith is very pleasent and friendly and we recieved a genunie welcome. Brook cottage is nestled in beautiful surroundings on the Dingle way. The views all around were magnificent and a short distance to numerous beach fronts along the Castlegregory coastline. Would highly recommend and would stay again.

Nos ha encantado todo! Nos hemos sentido como en casa y los anfitriones han estado siempre pendientes de todos los detalles. 100% recomendable. Ojalá podamos volver con más tiempo. Gracias!

This was the most idyllic cottage we could have imagined for our New Years stay. David recommended the best local pub for us to enjoy a traditional Irish new years and it made our trip so great. He was so friendly and welcoming and let us pet the horses. He had lots of history and insight to offer and this place is perfect for any country Irish holiday dreams!

This is a beautiful house in a wonderful, private location. The bed was huge and comfortable, with a view of Bantry Bay from the pillow. The facilities are excellent, the garden private and peaceful. Wild ponies were in the area, which was a joy. Kevin is an excellent host. I highly recommend staying here and would love to come back.

We LOVED this space. Annette thought of everything a guest might want. Her home was decorated tastefully with sweet touches, quality furnishings, and thoughtful extras. The kitchen was immaculate with new appliances and all the gadgets we needed for cooking. Her outdoor space was beautiful and serene. We spent much time outside, looking at her garden and listening to the bees/birds. It was amazing. Annette was a great host. She provided a welcome basket with local items and spent a good amount of time with us, though also respected our privacy. She educated us about the home, advised us about eating options/local spots to visit and was just a joy to chat with. We spent several days at her home and are anticipating spending longer stays at her home. This home is a rare find. :)

Superbe séjour dans cette maison pleine de charme, qui mêle l’authenticité de l’ancien au confort moderne. Chaque détail est soigné pour offrir un moment agréable : une literie très confortable, un équipement complet et fonctionnel, et une ambiance chaleureuse. L’emplacement est parfait pour explorer la région, en particulier le Ring of Kerry et le Ring of Beara. Mention spéciale à Des pour son accueil, sa réactivité et les délicates attentions laissées à notre arrivée. On s’est senti si bien dans cette maison qu’il a été difficile de la quitter. Nous espérons vraiment y revenir un jour... Encore merci Des !

This place was amazing! You can’t beat the views or vibes. Mag was such a great host as well. Very prompt and gave us great info on the area.

We booked Pa’s Cottage the day before and what a beautiful cottage it was. Beautiful location, lovely to have 3 bedrooms with their own bathrooms and a washer and dryer! The kids were instantly in love with Charlie the dog and even had pats with the two cats. Anne was so lovely and provided a great tour of the house on arrival. Not only were there cereals, milk and treats, Anne baked us the best sponge cake we’ve ever tried. Our 3 nights passed by too quickly but were so glad of the time we spent here. Thank you!!

We really enjoyed our month-long stay at Jerry's place. The kitchen is well equipped and Jerry and his wife were always helpful, friendly, and quick to respond. The host provided enough dish soap, laundry detergent, toilet paper and even firewood to last our entire stay. The house is in a very quiet and peaceful location in the countryside but still central for exploring both Kerry and Cork counties (having a car is a must).

Fantastic host and wonderful stay. Would highly recommend

Although the cottage was more remote than we expected, it was quiet and peaceful perfect for a getaway. Nearby towns had the amenities such as restaurants and shops that we needed.Kate’s attention to detail and prompt recommendations were a true bonus. Her welcome basket of foods made it easy for us to arrive late and have a quick breakfast in the morning. Truly a lovely spot.

Our second stay at the cottages in two years which is always a good indication of how at home I feel lhere. If you are looking for a complete switch off, amazing countryside and total chill out... This is the place to do it.

Très beau cottage très bien situé. Super bien équipé avec notamment des jeux pour enfants et un matelas chauffant!! Nous avons passé un super séjour à Killarney le logement est situé juste en face de restaurant et très proche du centre. Vraiment idéal pour un séjour en famille ou entre amis Merci encore,

Had a great stay at the Muckross cottage. Very clean, friendly host. Sydney and pipa were adorable and made it feel so homey.

We had a wonderful time in the fisherman’s cottage. It was a great escape for a long weekend. The cottage is beautiful and the location can’t be beaten. It was so quiet and peaceful. The standard of the cottage is excellent and it actually has a huge private garden also which we didn’t realise. It’s worth the price. Dolores is a delight. She is a real character and had great recommendations for the local area. She was also very good at keeping in touch via text with further recommendations which was much appreciated. I would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay at Ur's House! The location is incredibly peaceful and quiet, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. From the moment we arrived, Urs was warm and welcoming, going above and beyond to ensure that we felt comfortable and at home. Lounging on the couch in front of the stove with a DVD playing was just amazing. The house itself was spotless—neat, tidy, and very well-maintained. Everything we could possibly need was readily available, from kitchen essentials to thoughtful touches that made the stay even more enjoyable. It’s clear that a lot of care has gone into creating a space that is both functional and inviting. Having no wifi and limited mobile reception enhanced the experience. I would highly recommend Ur's House to anyone looking for a serene getaway with exceptional hospitality. Thank you for such a memorable experience!
