18/12/2025: Came in late after a long day of travelling and arrived in near closing time. They were very accommodating to me and my partner, we had accommodation already sorted elsewhere but we had some food here and it was deadly. Owners very friendly and recommend us sights to see. Will be back when we visit skibbereen again.

06/05/2026: Kinsale started to fill in quick, so I decided to move on and swing back through Cobh to catch anything I might have missed the first time. The drive over was easy enough, but finding a spot near the water took some patience. Once I got settled, I ducked into The Mauretania, a small, no-frills pub that felt like it had been there forever. Ordered a Jameson with lime and ginger ale and took a seat. Simple drink, but it hit right, gave me a minute to reset and get my bearings before heading back out. Felt like the right call stepping away from the crowd and easing back into a slower pace.

12/04/2026: Had a great time when our cruise ship visited. Say hello to a local I met and drank pints with - his name was Mitch.

04/06/2026: We stayed in the cottages. They are spacious and have great views, but they are dated and a bit worn out. Lots of stuff didn't work properly (shower, dishwasher, smart tv). It is very basic accommodation in the cottages, but if you accept and expect this, there is plenty to enjoy here. Staff at the bar and restaurant were great. We also loved the location. Very peaceful and scenic.

03/06/2026: Outstanding stay – highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I absolutely wanted to leave a review, as our stay at this hotel will remain a wonderful memory. We received an incredibly warm welcome upon arrival. Our room was fantastic: spacious, spotlessly clean, and with a cozy, typically Irish charm that immediately made us feel at home. This room definitely deserves more stars! We also tried the hotel's restaurant and were delighted. The service was exceptionally warm and attentive, and the food was simply outstanding. In short: A thoroughly enjoyable stay. We would book this hotel again in a heartbeat – next time definitely for several days or even a whole week!
