Castlecove Hotels

Nice staff and breakfast. Quiet. Close to town

The family running this place was very nice and helpful. They were very understanding when I explained my dietary restrictions to them, and they made me a special breakfast I could eat. They also let us leave our bags for a little while after checkout on the last day of our stay, since we had a little while between checkout and when we had to catch our train and didn't want to haul around our luggage while we went shopping.

Great location in town. Great host. My 1st choice when visiting Castletownbere

The cottage was comfortable and spotless. It's obviously been renovated and well cared for. We even enjoyed the visits from the farm cats and a few sheep. The main bedroom is tight for a double bed and, while crab walking to my place I tripped and fell against the wall, cracking the plaster board. We were not even charged for the incident. In fact, the owner was only worried if someone had come to harm. Very positive experience. The only down side I have to point out is, if anyone has difficulty with steep stairs this might not be the place for you. To reach the upstairs rooms, (including the bathroom) you have to tackle a tightly bending stairs that are stacked well above normal height. If someone has knee or leg mobility issues, this creates a real problem. But for the healthy and hearty, who like to be just a little removed from the flow, I really do reccomend it.

Modern theme and staff friendliness

Absoultely stunning views, and a really lovely property, house is very well equipped, and well decorated and very enjoyable to just spend time in the house. The views make doing teh washing up a joy! The views from all round the hosue are stunning and the local walk to the pier and coral beach is really special. The neighbours are friendly. It is rural and remote and you will need a car, and the lane to the house is pretty bumpy. There's no wifi and the Tv is basic, but there is reasoanble phone signal, so bring plenty of games or books to entertain yourself or kids, and you'll very much enjoy this location. Very close to the wonderful O'Carrolls Cove Beach which is very safe for kids and also Derrynane beach which is stunning. I would highly recommend this property. We would love to return again.

The most stunning hotel… loved everything about Ard na Sidhe… the location and views, lake swims and terrace dining it is spectacular

Very helpful and friendly staff. Clean room and great food.

Booking process was simple and communication from vrbo was helpful. We would book with vrbo again after our experience.
