Waterfront coastal chic in the heart of Kinsale, Co.Cork.

Perched on the waters edge with breath taking views of Kinsale harbour from every window, this is truly a special place to stay.

We are new to VRBO! For current reviews please find our listing on Air b&b.

Unwind
in a light filled room on the edge of the harbour wall. Sit and watch boats and yachts, seals, herons and even the occasional otter! With a table and chairs outside on the terrace, it’s the perfect spot for a sundowner on sunny evenings, candles and warm blankets provided for those chilly nights!

Relax
on the sofa looking out to sea.

Sleep
in a king size bed with a great mattress and crisp white, pure cotton bedding.

Bathe
in the shower room with cruelty free toiletries, soft towels and fresh cotton gowns.

Make yourself at home
with a Krups coffee maker, French press, microwave and fridge. Find the kitchen stocked with teas, coffee, milk and sugar.

Eat
in Kinsale! We have the best range of restaurants, find our guidebook with our personal favourites.

Listen
to an unlimited range of music with a premium Spotify account on Alexa. There’s no TV! Just an ever changing view.

Park
your car nearby, we have an agreement with the lovely owner of a small private car park about 50m away who allows us to use his car park for our guests.

Walk
to all Kinsale has to offer from here. Park your car up and enjoy! The iconic Spaniard pub is just a minute from us, Man Fridays restaurant too. Everything else the town has to offer is a five minute walk away. Do the Scilly Walk and visit the Bulman pub and Charles Fort along the way.

All windows are double glazed and the building is extremely well insulated, keeping you snug even in the harshest storm.

We hope you'll find everything you need for a relaxed and comfortable stay.

Fantastic place to Escape
Sara and Ian have carved a little bit of paradise off for the rest of us to enjoy and I thank them for that! It was a wonderful location and waking up on the bay is incredible. Careful if you're driving in town but that pretty typical of Ireland.

Relaxing retreat by the harbor
This property was a perfect vacation spot. We could sit in the peaceful garden looking out onto the harbor, or take a quick walk to town for dinner and shopping. The interior was beautifully decorated and conducive to a feeling of calm and contentment. Having the option to listen to music via Alexa/Spotify was a really nice touch. Our hosts were quite accommodating and very helpful regarding information about the area. Would love to stay here again!

Excellent location, thoughtfully constructed & decorated, sparkling clean, private, quite
My first time booking w/ VRBO. Found the kinsale stays lovely, quite, private, property with garden and gazebo. Everything we needed was at hand. Well thought out design. Owners within reach but completely private. Separate residence. I was hesitant to book due kitty allergies, but found that they do not go in cottage. Barely saw the little darlings. I would stay again. Well worth the splurge.

A very well presented bedroom/kitchenette about 20 minutes walk from Kinsale town centre. Difficult access due to car park being 100 metres away and quite steep steps ( only 6 or so). Clean and tastefully decorated. The mattress was quite soft. No air conditioning. Lovely views and garden to enjoy, with a little summer house overlooking the water.

Cosy cottage; wonderful stay
This is a beautiful, cozy cottage right on the water. It is impeccable and tastefully decorated. Lacks for nothing. Ian and Sara thought of everything and were wonderful hosts. Roads are a bit narrow and steep. Better to walk into Kinsale which was bustling with people and activity.
