Loved the complimentary tea and oats, the bed was really comfy, water out of the shower felt lovely and they have a ladder leading up to this little sort of loft built for comfort. Spent time up there reading and watching the sun go down.

Marguerite's B&B, hotel in Skibbereen

Marguerite's B&B is located in landscaped gardens, 2 minutes’ drive from Skibbereen and just off the main Baltimore road on the Wild Atlantic Way route.

Marguerite is everything an old school lovely Irish hostess is but at the same time has adapted to modern times seamlessly. Her house and manicured gardens were a peaceful respite for me in Skibereen. My room faced the lush back garden which was very pleasant and calming. Her breakfast was to die for and there were so many extra choices including: fresh fruit, yogurts, cereals, granola, a traditional Irish breakfast made to order, fresh coffee and a selection of teas and fresh juices. She was extremely welcoming, pleasant and kind. I enjoyed our conversations immensely! There was also a very comfortable and homey sitting room to enjoy at your leisure and when I arrived she offered me a cup of coffee which was accompanied by her home baked delicious fruitcake. It really does not get better than this folks.

Stone Barn, hotel in Skibbereen

Situated in Skibbereen, in a historic building, 8.4 km from St Patrick's Cathedral, Skibbereen, Stone Barn is a recently renovated guest house with a garden and terrace.

We had the best time in The Stone Barn. The room was very comfortable, the bathroom very spacious, the food was delicious and the surroundings incredibly wholesome. The hot tub was an added bonus! A spot for animal lovers; home to 5 cats, a bustling chicken coup and Matilda, the gorgeous terrier-whippet cross. Thank you Stuart and Karin for your lovely hospitality.

Liss Ard Estate, hotel in Skibbereen

This stunning, 163 acre estate includes beautiful gardens, a 40-acre lake, and the fantastic Sky Garden crater. Fresh home cooking is provided, and guests can enjoy canoeing on the lake.

Delighted to be so warmly welcomed. It was great to receive a glass of bubbly on arrival too. We went to the Sky Garden which was fantastic. Amazing grounds to walk (for us and our dog!). Dinner in the Garden restaurant was superb. Highly recommended. The service was excellent and attentive. The food delicious and the cocktails were had out of this world!

    ‘The Church’ restaurant was fantastic food experience in a very special setting and if you like your outdoor swimming Lough Hyne is a gorgeous salt water adventure in beautiful countryside! (10 minutes away from hotel)

    It was great. But unless you have "sat-nav", booking.com directions won't get you there. We were using an Eirecode finder on my phone but as we got close, internet service suddenly quit. We had to telephone.

    Do visit the art centre and the heritage centre, which has a largeish display about the famine, though it rather conceals the background reasons for why people were so impoverished -- ie, hundreds of years of oppression of Catholics by England. But we both learned a lot. Lough Hyne, by comparison, is not such a big deal. It may be a marine reserve, but there's very little wildlife there. A good place for swimming, however. The Church restaurant is fairly good, but very expensive, like so many restaurants in Ireland (ie, compared with London)

    Skibbereen is a surprising pleasure. lovely small but varied high street, worth a wander, with variety of shops. Local Fields worth dropping in for the local produce and cakes. Lovely dinner at The Church Restaurant. Famine museum was definitely worth a visit too. Nicely done- lots of info and presented in a style where you leave sobered but not depressed!

    People are very helpful and friendly, lovely shops, great farmers market with a great variety of stalls. Lots of cafes and we loved the Church Restaurant. Close proximity to coastal villages of Baltimore, Glandore, Union Hall and Castletownsend. Steeped in rich history and beautiful scenery! Loved the West Cork Hotel, we had such a peaceful and relaxing few days.

    We loved the social life and made the most of the local pubs and restaurants. We especially liked the Church Restaurant and also had a couple of evenings in the Corner Pub. The Saturday morning Farmers' Market was excellent, as was the range of cafes and boutique shops. We enjoyed the Heritage Centre and the helpful genealogist helped me locate my living relatives in the town! Within close proximity of the town are some lovely walks too.

    This is a lovely stately period hotel. It currently undergoing refurbishment but any disruption was minimal. It looks out over the River Lee and is very peaceful. Our room was spacious and nicely furnished with a river view. Parking was free and easy to access. The Restaurant meals were of a very high standard. The included self service continental breakfast was generous but we also ordered additional cooked breakfast from the menu. Nice choices. All the staff were very helpful and professional. Highly recommend.

    The gardens were amazing, it felt like being in a jungle and around every bend was something new to see or enjoy. The hot tub was fantastic and as it was enclosed it could be used in any weather. Although we were less than 10 minutes from Skibbereen town it felt so secluded. The hosts couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating, the house had so many books, games and jigsaw puzzles so we got to enjoy multiple games of scrabble and the WiFi was great

    Christine and her lovely family were the best hosts we could imagine. We will definitely come back the next time we come to Ireland. The cottage was very convenient and cosy. The area is absolutely beautiful and offers many opportunities for hiking, running and water sports nearby. We loved Heir Island, Cape Clear and Lough Hyne. We wish we could have stayed longer.

    Great B&B, easy to find in a quiet location only a short drive from the centre of Skibbereen. The room was very comfy and had everything I need for my stay. Breakfast was lovely, there is a choice of cereal, fruit as well as a cooked breakfast. Marguerite is a lovely lady and a great host very welcoming and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

    Kenny and Christine were super friendly and welcoming, the beds were comfy and Kenny helped us set up the tv so we could watch the rugby :D The location was a great base for that area, close to Skibb and Ballydehob and spots like Lough Hyne, Tragumna etc. It was so quiet and peaceful. The cat was super friendly which is always a bonus for me!

    I only stayed for one night, as I had an appointment in the area. Having said that. I'd have been happy to stay for longer. The room was spacious, the bed comfortable, and the breakfast items in the room meant I was completely independent. I had a good chat with the owner, who was very friendly and welcoming. All in all, a lovely experience.

    It is a very beautiful remote house, just outside of Skibbereen. The neighborhood is quiet and it’s generally a good place to stay. Pat and Kaithleen were very accommodating and helpful, quite pleasant people. Pat is very positive and talkative and want to learn a lot of stuff about his visitors and their country.

    Liss Ard Estate is much more than a hotel. It is an experience. The grounds are so beautiful, the manor house is sublime elegance. The food divine. The sky garden is incredible. The staff were lovely, some with a hint of Basil Faulty! The sauna and lake combo were great. I just loved it.
