Honestly one of the best places that we have ever stayed. The attention to detail was amazing and the place was absolutely spotless. The fridge and cupboards were stocked with everything you could think of. I could not recommend it more. It was so child friendly and perfect for anyone travelling with children.10 out of 10 for us.

The hotel was ideally located for the town and the beach. The room was spacious, clean and the bed was enormous and very comfortable. Mary and John couldn’t have been more helpful telling us all about the town. The breakfast was exceptional with fresh homemade bread and a choice of cooked food all made to order.

Roy was so warm & welcoming. The room was so cosy, warm & comfortable, with a real homely feeling. I love Rosscarbery and being so close to the beach. Also close to shops & restaurants. This whole place had a homely & welcoming atmosphere. The breakfast was freshly cooked and superb. Fresh fruit, cereals & yogurt also available. Enjoyed the lovely placemats on the dining table with a different love story on each one!

Very beautiful house with great size en-suite bedrooms. The view to the sea is amazing and it is close to the town`s seaside. Mary is an amazing host and the breakfast is plentiful and tasty and lot of choices. There is a table tennis and swing on a tree for the kids.

Absolutely everything!!!!! The place is located on the seaside, in a quiet cute town and finely decorated, with modern bathrooms. Everything is spotlessly clean and well kept. Breakfast is freshly cooked and delicious. A place to relax and take a break. And Julie is so kind and warm.

The property was in large private grounds which was very safe for the kids to explore. Lovely grounds with a private beach to swim. The setting was hugely peaceful and the grounds are natural and beautiful. Great place to unplug.
