Kinsale spacious retreat
The Kinsale rental was perfect for our trip. The location is minutes from the water front and many great restaurants. The sun room had a beautiful view of the town. The wood work was very well done and impressive. The house was well stocked with everything you might need.

Wonderful stay -- Fantastic home
We could not have been more pleased with this property. Its location is fantastic as a base from which to explore Kinsale. It is extremely functional and well laid-out; the pictures of its high-quality finishes do not really do it justice. It was a perfect place for our family -- great kitchen, W/D, outdoor space. Would rebook again tomorrow if we were going to be back in Kinsale. Just Terrific!

Convenient and Beautiful
Kinsale was great.. space was nice, but the beds were hard and it was extraordinarily warm…. Unusual, but made it tough to sleep.

Not as expected
The check-in process was to contact a "friend in the area". Since we were arriving from another country, it made finding the place, getting the key and figuring how to get into the house very difficult. The parking situation and the narrow street that the house was on made driving and parking scary. The house was ok but we were expecting more. There was a dirty, used dish scrubber and no paper towels or napkins. The view outback was not appealing and the house could use some TLC. We wouldn't book again.
