When we booked our stay, the host Tricia responded right away and gave us great directions in order to find it. She met us when we arrived and showed us around explaining what in the fridge was for guests to make their own breakfast. The room was clean but the beds were a little uncomfortable. The bathroom was a large open shower that became slippery.

The property catered for us perfectly. It was the perfect location for us. Room was clean and large. Maybe a little TLC was needed inside but it was fine. The communal kitchen / dining area was very nice and a lovely area to be in. The only strange thing was the DIY breakfast. All the food was provided, but having to cook it yourself felt a little weird. Another guest thought my wife was going to cook for them! Took me a while to work out the oven / grill settings and was running low on milk at one point. Tricia, the lady taking care of the establishment was lovely, and very friendly. McDonalds close by was useful also if you're staying with children.

On arrival we felt very welcomed by Tricia, we were impressed with suite we had, especially the spa bath. We decided to stay an additional night due to comfort and hospitality. Is within easy reach of Cork by car, Arranging the second night was easy and we felt at home in the common areas. Would highly recommend. Thanks Trish for making us feel so welcome and comfortable

Place was fine but we didnt realize the private bathroom was up stairs on the second floor. Internet was slow. Breakfast foods were available to cook your own breakfast which what the description stated. Overall pretty good value.

I was disappointed overall. My partner and I are an unfussy middle-aged couple who like a cooked breakfast served to us. While there was a decent amount of food, you have to cook it yourself. In fairness, there was fruit and veg and a range of breakfast cereals. Our room (5) on the ground floor was private with a bathroom for our use only. The bed linen was laundered but very dated and wrinkled. The TV was hard to get working. The handke if the window was broken. Tricia was in touch early and as helpful as she could be, but this place is almost impossible to find. Why not say, simply: 'Head for the technical college gates and turn right immediately, then first right again?' All in all, this is not a B&B as commonly understood and is overpriced, so we would not be hurrying back.

This is NOT your typical Bed and Breakfast. The private bathroom was not attached to our bedroom; we had to go out of our room and upstairs. Breakfast is NOT made for you but you can help yourself to what's in the fridge and cook your own meal. It was hot and humid, the a/c wasn't working in our room. We could hear all the other guests. We only had one old fashioned key for the room and the only way to lock it while inside the room, was with the key. So when one of us left to go upstairs to the bathroom we had to pick if we were locking the others inside the room where they can't get out or if we were leaving it unlocked where others could easily enter.

The house manager Tricia was really helpful and friendly. Some poor quality items like towels and sheets. Bedroom blind broken and duct tape didn’t work. Curtains downstairs ripped. Not a traditional Band B. Make your own breakfast which was fine but more like a youth hostel.

The owner and staff were great. It was clean, they had laundry facilities, and the living and kitchen areas were well stocked. There was fruit, eggs, bacon, breads, cereals, milk, OJ, coffee, tea. They don’t make meals but you can go near by to restaurants or bring in what you want. We liked that. After two weeks of eating out, we were ready to relax, make a nice meal.

This was a really comfortable stay. The large "house" has lots of en-suite bedrooms, plus a huge communal kitchen/dining/living room. Our en suite room was clean and the beds really comfy. We had a great shower. Tricia, the on-site House Manager, greeted us on arrival and showed us where everything was. In the communal room breakfast foods are all provided - cereal, bread, butter, milk, tea, coffee, juice, fruit...plus eggs, bacon and sausages, and you just get up when you want and make any kind of breakfast that you want (we often cooked sausages and scrambled eggs). You can also store some of your own foods in the fridge and cupboards. You can sit on the sofas, or at the dining room tables, or just head back to your own private (with key) room. The other house guests were always friendly, some wanting to chat, and orhers keeping to themselves. Tricia keeps the whole house immaculate, and is always on hand if you need anything. We found it to be a great way to stay, as we loved the "self-catering" part, which saves the time and cost of having to find a restaurant each day. Thanks very much.

I was very disappointed with my stay here. The directions to the house were not very clear. I received a text msg telling m which was my room, on the left upstairs, (I had requested a wheelchair accessible room because I have mobility issues) and there was no one there to greet me though the door was open and I let myself in. The bedroom was a comfortable size but the sheets and pillowcases were very wrinkled, not ironed. The duvet cover though a dull unpleasant brown colour was ironed but I had to trust that it had been freshly washed. There were no pillow protectors on the quite old pillows and one was particularly pilled. No soap in bathroom dispenser, towel rail off the wall and in a corner of bathroom floor, no anti slip mat in shower, (I had to use one of the floor mats) (it was a very nice shower, good water pressure),. The smaller hand towel had two grey stains on it. Fortunately I spent very little time there, if I had had another option I would have left after checkin . The velux window had a blind that wouldn't stay down so waking at 5.30am was the end of my sleep. I thought I had left my bracelet behind and went back to check whether I had inadvertently wrapped it up in the duvet. It wasn't there but what I saw confirmed my decision never to recommend the place. The pillow cases had been stripped off, I didn't see the sheet but the duvet had just been turned over so the side that lay against my skin was now on the outside. Uggh!

Our host Tricia was truly excellent. After a warm welcome and all the makings of a delicious breakfast we discovered the hot water wasn't working. Tricia quickly jumped into action offering us options before setting us up with heaters until she fixed the issue. Tricia was efficient, friendly and hilarious and the family room was spacious and comfortable. It really was a lovely start to our holiday.
