The Bird House - Coastal Lodge in lovely Forest Setting nr. Kinsale, a property with a garden and a bar, is situated in Cork, 37 km from Cork City Hall, 37 km from Cork Custom House, as well as 38 km from Kent Railway Station. This property offers access to a balcony, pool at the pool table, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 2.3 km from Garretstown Beach.

We love everything about this house (the layout, the decorations and the cleanliness)! Thanks to Shelley, the Owner for providing a welcome hamper gift (a delicious carrot cake & a bottle of wine) 😃 In summary, it has good wifi, Netflix, play area with dart game and pool table! The owner also provided clear instructions on how to access the gate/house and equipment/facilities at the house prior check-in. The kitchen which is located upstairs is complete with cooking utensils, dishwasher, Nespresso coffee machine, toaster, kettle etc. The master bedroom which is located downstairs is big with comfy super king bed! The second double bedroom upstairs also really comfortable. Both have ensuite bathrooms and veryy clean! Oh ya, the heater at the house were well functioned! My family drove from Dublin to this house which I suggest for future guest to use Maps App (iPhone) instead of Google Map because some area along the way might have poor network connection will not support Google Map. If you use Maps app, it will still be working via offline maps, so you will not be lost 😅 Last but not least, I highly recommend that you guys try the breakfast/brunch at the Bean and Berry Cafe, located less than 2km from the house (very2 close to the beach), they have very delicious pastries, sandwiches, coffee, tea.

Located in Cork and only 42 km from Craig Cave, Meelin cottage provides accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property features garden views. The property is non-smoking and is situated 50 km from Ballyhoura Country.

The cottage is in a tranquil farming community with the towns of Meelin and Newmarket close enough for groceries or a pint at the pub. The cottage lacks nothing to cook your meals. We really enjoyed having a radio available to listen to local stations for news and music.

The 3-bedroom holiday home has a living room with a flat-screen TV with streaming services, a fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and an oven, and 1 bathroom with a hair dryer. Towels and bed linen are offered in the holiday home. There is also a seating area and a fireplace.

We enjoyed staying at “Eileen’s House”. The house is very clean and equipped with all the necessities. It’s situated in a beautiful island. There was a passenger ferry which runs several times a day and it’s always on time. It was a novel experience staying at Whiddy island. We loved the peaceful and stunning atmosphere. Majella is a wonderful host, so kind and caring. The people we met there were so friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back to Eileen’s House.

    The cottage was warm and delightful. We visited with the family and our girls enjoyed the wood fireplace! Very peaceful atmosphere easy to disconnect from work and city life. We happened to arrive very late (after 9pm) and the hostess was very kind to be there to receive us. The cottage was stocked with items to prepare a complete breakfast. Truly a Peaceful Cottage experience. Highly recommend it if you plan to visit Cork Ireland!
