It felt like staying with family because of the hospitality of the hosts, Siobhan and Nigel. We enjoyed the view of the harbour from our room and the very comfortable big bed. The food was excellent as well. We loved Kinsale and are still missing our time there. Nigel was very helpful when we enquired about visiting Cork city. The... More

Harbour Hill Farm is on the outskirts of Kinsale, not in the middle town. Our room had a spectacular view of the water and was very comfortable. It didn’t feel (or smell) like we were staying on a farm, it just felt like a very nice house with a stunning garden. Nigel and Siobhan were fun to talk to and... More

Lovely setting. Looks out to the bay & ocean from front rooms & view of farmland at rear of home. Our hosts Siobahn (Shivonne) & Nigel were very gracious as they welcomed us with genuine warmth. They have 3 children & run a working farm....200 head of dairy cows & 80,000 chickens, which are kept quite a bit away from... More

We were very happy with our decision to stay here for two nights while visiting the beautiful town of Kinsale and playing Old Head golf course. This B&B has a fabulous view and Siobahn is a real dynamo who offers great suggestions and is an excellent hostess. Nigel prepared a very good breakfast to prepare us for our days. Stay... More

Ladies and gentlemen, My wife and I recently vacationed in Ireland and we had a wonderful time! We purchased a self guided tour package on the Aer Lingus website that included travel, lodging, and a rental car. I highly recommend this type of travel because you're not confined to a bus or set schedule. In preparation for our trip to... More

In reply to this review. The client fails to tell that he waited until 19.00 to cancel. He mis-represented himself as having booked directly that morning and as such he would have been entitled to a 50% charge, however he was pre-booked by bandb Ireland whose rules are very clear and require 24 hour notice which he failed to give...

This was my first trip to Ireland and first B&B experience. Family that I was traveling with had been to Ireland before and stayed in many B&Bs. We all agreed that this was our best B&B experience of our 10 day trip. Sibohan and Nigel were terrific hosts who made us feel right at home from the minute we arrived.... More
