The Courtyard Kilshannig

Fermoy

Situated in Fermoy, 27 km from Cork Custom House, The Courtyard Kilshannig features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a tennis court and a terrace. The property is located 28 km from Cork City Hall, 28 km from Kent Railway Station and 29 km from Saint Fin Barre's Cathedral. The guest house has family rooms and facilities for disabled guests. The location is fantastic with magnificent views over the rolling green landscape. This is a small castle. It’s charming and stunning at the same time. Loved the morning walk in the pristine surroundings. Old trees, rhododendrons, fields with grazing thoroughbreds. Very homeish feeling. Spacious rooms and real Irish breakfast (perfect fuel for the day’s hike). Wonderful staff, when you need something, otherwise we actually had the place for ourselves which was great. We bought our own drinks and food and could use the facilities in the kitchen and dining room. Don’t miss this gem❣️
