Thoroghly enjoyed the accomodations, scenery and especially the locals. Ann at The Castle was wonderful and the rooms were quite comfortable and upgraded. Just up the street was a great little pub, called Mary Anne's, where the pints and stories were flowing.

Received a gift voucher for this hotel from previous guests who really liked it. It's a very old building (creaky-floorboards-type), with long winding stair cases and lots of family artifacts on the walls and on the landings, but our host didn't seem to know much about the history. Our room was on top floor (no lifts), the "army room" -... More

We could not have been happier with the accomodations, food, grounds, views and hospitality of Anne. This was the very experience we wanted from our trip to Ireland. Although am old castle, Anne and family have done a superb job of making it pleasantly modern but still keeping the castle a treasure to visit. I promise you it will be... More

Hello all, We were staying in west cork last weekend and happened to luck across the regatta in the village, great fun, lots of colour and passionate rivalry, we noticed the castle was a b+b and we were planning to stay in the area again in a few weeks so we said we'd wander in and enquire about vacancies and...

I don't understand the earlier reviews. We were treated well from our arrival, rooms were clean, breakfast (full Irish) was excellent, and we learned quite a bit about the Castle's history. By all means, if you want a quiet stay off the beaten path in an historic home, stop by. If you expect a modern hotel, travel on. It's a... More

Rooms were very comfortable and the decor was what you would expect in a old castle. The staff and owners were pleasant and nice and my kids were made feel welcome. They were allowed the use of kayaks and the owner took them out in a power boat around the islands.they saw dolphins and a basking shark. Overall i would... More

First, it's a very small castle. But hey, why not... The real problem was the attitude of the landlady. Falsely welcoming, and not caring at all about her guests. Not even willing to make us a quick guided tour of HER castle and to tell a tiny bit about its history. Although, we were lucky enough to meet her brother... More

Checked in and checked out the same day. The price was right but the castle smelled musty and was dirty. There was broken furniture, dead bugs in bedrooms and cobwebs everywhere. The castle looked like it hadn't been cleaned in years. I would rate this a zero.

The owner was rude and hateful to us from the moment she opened the door. We almost left because of the horrible hospitality but since it isn't the most accessible place we stayed. As we looked around the place, she yelled at us not to touch anything and when we came down to go to dinner, she had hidden stuff... More
