"Staff were awesome and really homey vibe to the hotel"

"Our family of three (two adults and a 17 year old) history buffs were so excited to have the opportunity to stay in this castle. Stephanie was very clear that she had been very intentional about how she restored the castle and it was exactly as described. The outside and parts of the inside were restored but not updated so that we could really immerse ourselves in the history and truly feel the lives of the people who had lived there. When we were in need of a more modern break and some creature comforts, we escaped to the top floor where we lounged in the sunshine and the beautiful view. Thank you Stephanie for preserving this precious piece of history and for sharing it with us. Some advice is to bring your own pillow and blanket if you will be sleeping anywhere but on the top floor if you have any allergies. The castle is by its nature, damp and I'm sure it's impossible to keep the linens fresh especially in the rainy spring when we visited. Also bring some sturdy soled slippers/inside shoes for navigating the stairs. "

"Room was a closet. Website was very misleading. "

"Room was reasonably quiet, comfortable. Breakfast cooked element was good. Had avocado toast. Staff were mostly pleasant and accommodating apart from one or two staff members who could smile and interact with the guests. "

"We had a great stay and wished we could have been there for more than one night! The team were amazing and couldn't have been more helpful giving directions and booking a taxi for us on the evening. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again if we were in the area."

"We were an extended family of 10 and each of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything went smoothly. The house was easy to find. The host was there to great us and give us the operational details. She was so very friendly and welcoming. All the bedrooms were lovely and restful—bedding was comfortable. The kitchen and communal areas were great for games and chatting. We used the hot tub but some inclement weather kept us away from The ocean. The house is located about a 10 minute drive from Bantry town center. "

"Kitchen was better equipped than I anticipated and very easy to use."

"The hotel runs with the efficiency of a well-oiled machine. The staff are polite and very attentive while the food is to a very high standard overall. Our room was cosy and clean, although the absence of a lift can prove problematic for anyone with a disability. Well located, the hotel affords easy access to the surrounding area. Overall, the hotel exudes a homely feel, offering good food, attentive service and comfortable accommodation."
