My mom and I had a wonderful stay at Doire Liath Bed & Breakfast during our recent visit to Bantry, County Cork, Ireland! The home is beautifully decorated and comfortable and conveniently located just 5 minutes away by car or 10 minutes away on foot from the center of Bantry.
We had the large room at the back of the house, with one twin and one double bed. This was a very quiet and comfortable room. Rooms at the front will be less quiet, as they are closer to the main road.
Breakfast was wonderful, with many options from which to choose, including a selection of cold cereals, fresh fruit and yogurt, as well as eggs, sausages, bacon, etc.
Therese, the host, is warm, friendly and extremely helpful. Regrettably, I was sick for the first half of our stay there, and Therese was very compassionate, level-headed and helpful. She called the nearby clinic for us when I needed to see the doctor. Later, when I needed a different prescription, she called the clinic again and even went to the pharmacy to pick it up! She went above and beyond and we were very grateful to have such a caring host.
When you visit Bantry, be sure to book accommodation at this pleasant B&B - you will love it! I am including a photo of the lovely view from the B&B, looking southeast.
