Bed and breakfast vacation rentals in Cork

Olive was a wonderful host. Her home was really lovely and the breakfast was exactly what we needed for a fully-scheduled day. She was very warm and inviting and we would have loved to stay longer. Worth the stay!

We had a lovely stay at Riona’s and Paddy’s place. The appartement had everything we needed. Riona was super welcoming and we loved that she baked some fresh bread for us upon arrival. I would highly recommend staying here if you are exploring the Kingdom.

Absolutely wonderful, unique house with warm and friendly house. Mona has created an entire world in her home with her ‘curated’ collection of antiques. Great atmosphere while also very comfortable, with lots of extra touches for the guests’ happy stay. Highly recommend it. We will certainly return.

We felt very comfortable at Jane's. Every morning it smelled of fresh croissants, which Jane served us in an annexe that we could use in addition to our room. The muesli she prepared herself was also very tasty. The surrounding area offers many opportunities to go hiking and spend a great holiday. There were also plenty of tips.

We had a wonderful stay at Paudie & Anne’s. We chose it based on the excellent reviews, and it lived up to and exceeded them! Anne and Paudie (and Millie, the cat) were so welcoming and lovely. The location is gorgeous, and yet still close to town. Paudie and Anne helped to coordinate a private day tour on the ring of kerry, which we adored. We also adored the fresh breakfast and local recommendations. We would highly recommend this bnb and would be thrilled to stay here again! 🩷

Mona’s place was lovely for our stay! The breakfast was 10/10 and her scones are to die for. Highly recommend staying here if you’re heading to kinsale!

Declan and Marie were great hosts. Their home was a relaxing place to stay with beautiful gardens, the breakfasts they supplied were delicious with fresh fruit etc. Would definitely recommend them as hosts for a visit to Cork and surrounding areas. Steve and Tracey

Great location in beautiful Kenmare! Very clean and comfortable in a great location.

We have just had a wonderful stay at Kilcannon House with Gertie & Pat. They were very welcoming and made us feel right at home. It is a beautiful house with extremely comfortable spacious rooms. It was a little chilly, as late October. The heating was on and while we were in town, they went to the trouble of placing a hot water bottle in our bed so that it was extra cosy. Nothing was too much trouble. We had the best night sleep in the very comfortable bed. The next morning I was really looking forward to my breakfast as I’d read reviews - it did not disappoint! We didn’t need to eat again until the evening. I can’t recommend this place highly enough and understand why guests return time and time again. I will certainly be returning in the future. Thank you Gertie & Pat for your kind hospitality.

Eileen was a wonderful host! She pays attention to all the little details, and makes you feel at home. It was lovely to be greeted by a hot cup of tea and snack after a long day away. Her house is beautiful and comfy, and the surroundings just breathtaking. I just wish we could have stayed there longer. Thanks Eileen!

Joan was always smiley and always offered to make us a cup of tea when we came in after a long day. The B&B was quiet and beds were comfy. Joan also let us pick when we had our breakfast and cooked us a nice little fry up!

Thank you Eileen for such a wonderful stay! The location of the house is in such a beautiful and peaceful area and Eileen made us feel right at home. We loved chatting with her about her world travels and were so appreciative of the fact that she made us a delicious breakfast. The bedroom was very cozy and Eileen was sure to check that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Would love to stay with Eileen again and would recommend her place to anyone!

The stay at Cyril‘s B&B has been amazing. The room looks exactly like the pictures. It had an en-suite bathroom. The breakfast was the best, including a delicious fresh fruit salad and scrambled egg, etc - impossible to try everything. It was great to have a parking space inside the gate, and that it was within walking distance to the city center. Good recommendations from Cyril for day trips and restaurants.

Betty welcomed me warmly with a cup of tea and even got some cuddles with the doggos. Room was comfortable and everything was spotless!

I’m out of words to describe what a wonderful moment we had. Thanks to Catherine and Tom, who are both so friendly and welcoming. They were very helpful, and we had a great time in their company. Their dog and their two cats are so cute. I recommend this place 100%. If we come back to Bantry, we’ll book again at their home. Thanks!

Superb place near by everything in town! Comfortable and cosy. The bed were extra good and have all the amenities we needed. Neil and his family were super nice and friendly and ready to help!

Staying at The Boat House for the weekend was amazing, wish we could have stayed longer! Gail is a fantastic and welcoming host! The room has everything you need, the beds are super comfortable and the breakfast was very nice as well. There are so many options to spend your time and relax, from kayaking, swimming, reading a good book or playing a board game in the upstairs living space or outside on the balcony while enjoying the gorgeous views. We will definitely come back!

Ciara's place was beautiful. The view is something else and it was lovely watching the sailing boats in the sea, amongst the beautiful scenery. We were lucky enough that there were an annual fireworks display taking place on Cobh island across the water. Ciara's home is really lovely and clean. Ciara was really hospitable and nothing was too much trouble. Equally we felt like we could do our own thing and we felt like we had the place to ourselves xxx

One of the best stays we've had through Air BnB. A warm, friendly greeting from Ray & Catherine. Immaculately clean and comfortable accommodation. Absolutely adorable area for breakfast in the adjoining room, and breakfast was incredible. Catherine is an excellent cook! Pretty much anything you could hope for breakfast was on offer. Ray was a gracious host and made certain we had whatever we needed or wanted through the meal. Great advice about the area and places to see or at which to eat from both Ray and Catherine. Always pleasant, friendly conversation, we always felt at home. The property was in an excellent location. Out of the rush of things, but within minutes of town, and near enough to accommodate trips to everything we wanted to see in Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, Skelligs, and of course the Dingle Peninsula. Dog friendly as well, which can be hard to find. Swallow's Rest is an absolute gem, and we highly recommend it.

Our stay at Claudia and Tom's place was amazing, the area is quiet and calm in the middle of nowhere but still close to a city with restaurants. They were great hosts, really friendly and it was a pleasure to talk with them, also the breakfast was incredibly generous and every thing they served was fresh and delicious. The bedroom and the bathroom are really comfy with everything you could need, our stay was a refreshing moment in our trip.

We had a wonderful stay with Anne! They couldn’t have been more accommodating and friendly. Tara Farm is beautiful. It was a peaceful paradise. Breakfast is delicious and bountiful, served in a lovely room with a view of the hills and water. Anne, Sean, and Nina made our visit feel like home away from home 🥰🙏🏼

Very lovely host. Room was immaculate and pristine. Bed was very comfy. Breakfast was enormous and delicious. Amazing value for money. I was delighted I choose to stay here. Very close to Listowel for the races (<20 min drive). Thanks so much x
