Cork), each unique and charming in it's own way. We arrived on Saturday evening and were met by the owner, who was such a gentleman. You can tell he really loves what he does! He gave us a run through of what we would find in the cottage (leaflets on local restaurants, delivery takeouts and things to do) along with giving us directions. We stayed in Lassanroe barn which was only 5 minutes away from the main check in. When we got in, the heating had been on and the place was wonderfully cosy. A little blackboard propped on the wall read "Welcome Alan" and was accompanied by a personalised letter from the owner wishing us a lovely stay and a bottle of bubbly. The cottage was beautifully decorated and really clean. The kitchen was fully kitted out too which was handy and I ended up making some brownies that night! They really think of everything though. We had hot water bottles, robes (for the outdoor jacuzzi), DVDs and they even had Sky TV! As for the jacuzzi, it was fabulous. Perfect temperature, clean, and very private! It was really the icing on the cake! I cannot speak highly enough of this place. It was just perfect! If your looking to treat your other half or are looking for a couple retreat this is the place to go!!

We had an excellent dinner and breakfast buffet is extensive and delicious. Reception was slow until the manager came on but our needs in one of the "lesser" rooms were met when we called for a lightbulb and new sheets after a spill. Only Irish channels on the tv - can't rate the spa services.

The room was really comfortable with 2 huge beds and a nice bathroom. I waited for my friend at the restaurant. I had a late lunch and few drinks. The terrace on the bay offers an incredible view and a lovely sunny day, made it all just so perfect! I've used the spa and I can say that the service was very good indeed, although the prices were slightly expensive. staff was polite and competent. The swimming pool, on the other hand, was a bit too crowded for me, but altogether I can say that this hotel was a great value for money.

The couple also runs Aquaventures next door which offers diving experiences and boat tours.

Our room had a private bath with nice hot showers and a very comfortable bed. The owners were so sweet and helpful and fed us until we almost exploded. The breakfast is huge- don't fill up on the cold cereal, because there's so, so much more! It was a great find and definitely the best B&B we stayed in on our trip.

Yeah, I hate that too. One of the only specific B&Bs that we can remember from our drive around the whole of Ireland (yup, the North too) is Reendonegan House. Its location is unparalleled, right on Bantry Bay. Our trip here was way too brief. I think we arrived at dusk and left after breakfast (our trips tend to be whirlwind), but I remember I really wanted to make use of the knee-high boots we were offered to go exploring in the grounds in the dark. My husband being more practical/afraid than myself thought it was a bad idea. Seriously though, it's this amazing 18th C house right on the water, a little piece of history, practically unchanged since that time. It's well furnished and the breakfast is good. I remember thinking the whole thing was a deal (currently about 80 Euro per night for a double). Oh yeah, and it is approved by the Irish Tourist Board which was my main criteria when I booked places (seemed to work well). As far as the hosts go, they were friendly, but we didn't strike up any life-long friendships during our short stay (who does that, really?) I wish we spent more time here, but I think we will make it back at some point. One of those many, many amazing spots in Ireland.

Her breakfasts were "to die for" and filled our bellies until supper time. The scenery from the back porch (which is filled with gaelic music if you like, and we did) of the bay is breathtaking to say the least. We walked along the shores and made memories that will last a lifetime. I would definitely recommend this B&B!! Linda H. Iowa_USA

We decided to head down to the Pod Pairc as we had heard great things about it online and from…read morefriends. It was my first time staying in a Pod so I was looking forward to the experience. After a lovely drive through the windy roads of west cork we arrived in the evening to be greeted by David and Elizabeth. It was great to meet them both on their own land and they showed us around. The location is beautiful being a close drive to Drimoleague village while at the same time being remote and quiet. They have ducks, chickens, sheep and cows on site as well as a beautiful dog named Daisy. They have on site showers and bathrooms as well as a games room, laundry and kitchen. There were many families there when we stayed and you can see as it is ideal as well as for couples or singles who need some relaxation. The pods them self are beautiful and very well insulated and cosy. Nice and minimalistic with little distractions so you can relax. I will definitely be returning to stay again.

I was camping on this site about 12 years ago and we went down last year in the caravan everything…read morewas spotless and the staff were very nice the only thing i did not like was the way the pitches were done. They were cut out of slops and when you were in you could not use the steps or waste barrel so the waste water was building up underneath the caravan. If your waste outlet was at the back you might be alright but mine is at the side. I thought this setup was very strange and in saying that they were not all the same some were normal as in most camp sites. Other than that everything else was great. There was some lovely scenery in the area and plenty of things to do like the Michael Collins museum which is great value for money and very interesting. All in all i would definitely try it again but without the dug out pitch.

We went down with a caravan, to have a few days of rest at this campsite. It was our first and…read moreDEFINITELY our last camp there ever! Do not know how this campsite is a 4 star campsite! We have been to a few already! This is one of the worst ones yet! We could not use a normal kettle. Had to use the campers kitchen, as there are rediculous wattage limits (do not know why we had to pay for power point). The power points are also unsafe, as not specific for each caravan pitch. You have to use an extension/lead!!!!!!!! Dare not use the shop as you will pay €4,50 for one bar of Dove soap! None of the pitches were straight! Still only the "cut-out-of-slops" sites. Dare not use a caravan without something solid under the jacks... The sluice was also unequipped! Showers were not the cleanest. Even tough there is a "quiet" time set in the camp, there is no control. Visitors will wake you at early hours of the morning. (This means 1 am or even 2 am!) All in all, NOT VALUE FOR MONEY- TYPICAL IRISH RIPP_OFF! You will do better to go to the 3 star Camac valley campsite, Dublin and you will do even better, going to Northern Ireland or GB! I do not care how friendly the staff, it should be a pleasure to go camping- you should not wish you had not gone!
