The 'stables' at Kinsale
Catherine was a thoughtful and considerate host. The property was very spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. You can park right out front as the apartment is on a farm with very friendly dogs to greet you on arrival.

Lovely tranquil cottage on farm
My sister and I absolutely loved staying on this beautiful and quiet farm. The cottage outside is vintage and inside is refurbished and equipped with every thing you might need for a comfortable stay. Our host, Catherine, was delightful and shared lots of local information. Five star all the way.

Irish country cottage
We were late arriving and Catherine was still waiting on us. She was warm and very inviting. She made us feel so at home. I would recommend this cottage to anyone.
I cannot recommend this property highly enough. Catherine is the model host. Her communication was clear and helpful and upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed at our rental. (with fresh scones no less - incredible!). We learned a bit about the area with some tips on where to eat. It was a busy night in Kinsale with a regatta taking place so finding food became a mission. Catherine called a local restaurant to make a reservation for us. The unit was spacious and had everything we needed including wi-fi. A well equipped kitchen, cozy living room, two bedrooms and two spacious baths made for a comfortable stay. The surrounding countryside is beautiful. We were working our way around the south of Ireland and unfortunately, that meant only a two-night stay before we had to move on. We will absolutely look forward to returning to the Kinsale area and staying at the Irish Stone cottage again. Thank you, Catherine! You made our stay perfect.

Absolutely delightful!
Catherine is a genuinely kind and helpful person and great host. She is pleasant and easy to work with and was a resource prior, through our stay. The Stable met all of our needs for our family of four. Beds comfortable and it was nice to have two bathrooms. Working kitchen for breakfast. Also a washing machine and ease with parking. The scones, butter and milk are a lovely topper to all of Catherine’s care and touches to make the stay just right. Great location with quick and easy drive to town, golf courses and day trip to Killarney. Would absolutely stay here again for our return.

OMG…everything was amazing. Cathrine was so sweet. She made us a loaf of homemade bread for check in, she left butter and fresh milk for us too. The home is beautiful and has everything you could need. She gave us maps and suggestions for dinner, drinks and places to see!
It was a fabulous stay and we can’t wait to come back to stay and to see more of Kinsale and the area. Thank you for the wonderful stay!!

A Week in Kinsale
The property owner was very helpful - even purchased some gluten free bread for my gluten intolerate wife. She was a wealth of information on tourist attractions in southern Ireland. We were very pleased with all aspects of our stay at this accomodation. The weather was cold and wet and we even experienced the "Katherine" storm which curtailed some of our tourism activities
