This is a wonderful house. The pictures are a great representation of the property. Finding three bedrooms with three private bathrooms is perfect. The driveway is an added bonus. We highly recommend this property.
Very enjoyable stay in lovely property - would definitely return
We spent 2+ weeks in this cozy cottage in March 2024. House is very comfortable and very well equipped, and has great views looking out over Kinsale harbor. It was great to be able to have coffee on the patio on sunny mornings, and the parking spaces were like gold in the area. Very easy walk to Kinsale town in one direction and CharlesFort in other way. Highly recommended, and hope to return soon.
The Captain’s Cottage is a wonderful, clean, well-equipped place in a primo location. We loved the view out the front windows every day. We even kept watch for Oscar the seal who made occasional appearances in the water in front of the house. Highest praise for this excellent house.
This house is modest and comfortable and exquisitely situated. Wake up and watch sail and fishing boats making their way across the harbor. We never got in a car, walked everywhere, village with pubs and restaurants easily accessible walking. . This Spaniard, a happy, neighborhood pub, and Man Friday, an upscale restaurant provided easy access to neighborhood entertainment. We were at this property for a month. It wasn’t long enough.
