    There was nothing that I didn't like.

    A wonderfully eclectic haven of calm, space and quiet. Perfect after a hectic work day. Warmly greeted with a cuppa and great conversation. Spacious room, comfy bed and perfectly appointed en suite. Great choices for breakfast, self serve style. Very much styled around wellness, particularly the teas.

    I would have liked a heavier quilt or an extra blanket but I wasn't actually cold

    Interesting gardens with lots of quirky features, and an excellent view over the city. A quiet location. The room was extremely clean and well appointed. Nice bathroom

    Clean, spacious, amazing garden, tasty breakfast, Roy has been a great host and his two dogs were incredibly friendly and adorable. The garden is beautiful even in winter, overall a beautiful place to run away from the chaos of the city and close to a couple picturesque little towns.

    Directions from Google MAPS based on the Eircode was not great. You have to drive past Google Maps location to a right turn and follow signs for Douglas Allotments on the right. Might be worth adding the co-ordinates (51.849015158201794, -8.446399894648431) as well as the Eircode

    Roy sent me details before I arrived about parking etc. He met me when I arrived. The room and en-suite was very nice clean and well decorated. Free Wifi. Breakfast was ready at 7am with a wide selection of tea's. It was mainly the peace and quite that i enjoyed after a long day. Located close the the Cork Airport.

    Nothing!

    I can only agree wholeheartedly with everything that has already been said- From the wonderful location, the views, the furnishings, the incredible garden, the breakfast served by an invisible Irish fairy (thanks Layla!), to the contact with Roy: Simply perfect! Although Roy was travelling himself, the contact was super friendly and so easy going. The only thing I regret is that I wasn't able to meet Roy in person. He is a very special person for sure and he has given this place something special: a beautiful soul. I look forward to coming back:-)

    I wish I could rate this 11/10. Roy is an amazing host, who made us feel welcomed in his wonderful house, and treated us with a delicious breakfast. The room is spacious and has beautiful furniture; the bed is super comfortable, while the bathroom and the shower are nice and big. We will definitely go back, if we ever visit Cork again!

    So close to Cork but able to enjoy the quiet of the farm. This was a highlight of a 7 day jaunt.

    It was off-season so we did not get to enjoy the extensive gardens and sitting areas. Still, they were beautiful.

    The location is a 15-minute drive outside of the City of Cork. We had a soggy wonderful time in Cork taking in the vibrance of the city and visiting the central market for goodies to bring back to FW. Roy provided a warm welcome and a grand tour of the house. It is quite an undertaking, incorporating interesting artifacts from the original farm. The breakfast was perfect, continental, and warm foods. Just the right touch! The room was spacious and had a farm warmth to it with a blend of old and new textures.
