We stayed with Maggie for three nights while touring the south west or Ireland.
The whole experience was a joy.
Maggie is simply the best hostess in Ireland,the breakfasts are fit for a king;
My wife Fiona had a bad cold while there and Maggie gave her a bottle of liquid which did the trick (we will not say what it was Maggie).
I cannot recommend this B&B enough.

My husband and I stayed here with my parents for a few nights and it was brilliant! I would highly suggest a stay. The house is well located, just outside Bantry, with a lovely view. The rooms were clean and comfortable. But what really makes it is the hostess, Maggie. She is so very friendly, helpful and provides the best breakfast of anywhere we have ever stayed, inluding 5 star hotel! She looked after us very well. Look forward to returning!

This is one of the best b&b's we ever stayed in. Maggie is a wonderful hostess, the rooms are very clean and spacious and ours offered a fantastic view of Bantry Bay. The breakfast Maggie serves is outstanding - absolutely gorgeous homemade bread, scones, muesli, jams, fresh fruits - just everything you wish.
All in all a highly recommendable b&b!!

Maggie is an absolutely fantastic hostess; well worth the enthusiastic reviews she has received so far. Our room had the perfect view of Bantry Bay and we wished we could have stayed an extra night. The B&B location is just a short walk from the Bantry town centre. To find the B&B, you need to head North out of Bantry towards Glengarriff on N71, as you're leaving Bantry, you will pass a speed sign on the left and then there's a sharp right up a hill to the B&B. We missed the turning first time round. There's plenty of parking here on arrival.

Now to the stay: the room had an en-suite and a wonderful bed. Lovely bed sheets and a personal touch from Maggie. Our room also had a patio door that allowed us to sit outside facing the bay as the sun went down. Unfortunately, it also started to rain but the view was still fantastic!

In the evening, there are choices to be had in Bantry for meals and snacks. It is well worth a hunt around the town but Maggie was very helpful narrowing down our choices. Please note that most restaurants close at 9pm.

Breakfast was superb, home-made jams, home-made scones and home-baked bread to go with your fully cooked Irish breakfast with all the trimmings.

Let us end with more words about Maggie: she's great and very welcoming and the perfect hostess. It is well worth a stay at Bantry even if you are en route to Killarney / Cork. Take your time and stay the night at Atlantic Shore B&B and let Maggie take care of you. You will not regret it.
