Best Country Experience
We loved this home for the moments we saw it online. Then when we met David, he was very helpful with everything in the home, but also had maps out for Ireland. My family did get sick during our visit and David was on it! I followed him i to town to get medicine for my son and husband. David checked in several times to make sure we were ok, and if we needed a doctor. Thankfully we didnt but having the owners close by meant that we could reach out if we needed anything. When we return for another family visit, we will be staying here again.

Fabulous cottage for a family holiday
What an amazing holiday we had in David's cottage. Surrounded by fields of cows and horses, the children were in their element. They especially enjoyed feeding the horses carrots. The cottage was extremely clean and well maintained, with a traditional Irish feel about it.

Fantastic Irish Getaway
The thatched cottage near Cork was an idyllic setting for our week long Irish getaway. We enjoyed feeding the horses and cockerel. The setting in the middle of the equestrian center was a fantastic place to relax after a day of exploring. Thank you to our host David who made sure we had everything we needed during our stay.

A super quaint cottage centrally situated for exploring
Very comfortable yet old feeling home, traditional cottage yet modern. Comfortable beds and plenty of living spaces, beautiful property!! Piano was a plus, and horses although with our outings and rain we didn’t make it to see them. Not a walkable property but a 10 min drive into town. Very easy to get around throughout Cork from here. David is very friendly and helpful!! Very much enjoyed chatting with him! Note: GPS took us crazy way to get there… if you use equestrian center it’s easier to navigate to using Apple maps.

Unbelievable stay at this delightful thatched cottage
Had my heart set on staying at this cottage when I decided on it in the US about a year ago and saw it on Vrbo. Kitchen worked out well with microwave dishwasher, full-size fridge and gas oven, we made dinners four nights that week we stayed. Location was convenient to Cork, COMBS and Mallow had excellent grocery stores for supplies since we stayed an entire week. We had lots of breathing space at this former equine training center and that is hard to find in Ireland. David was great host and got a fire started in the woodstove for one romantic evening for us, it was fascinating to us, that he used peat for the firewood. Thank you.

Beautiful thatched cottage
A lovely thatched cottage close to Cork city but far enough away to be peaceful and feel well in the countryside. We had a very comfortable stay with every need catered for. Would have no hesitation in recommending as a base to see the sights of beautiful county Cork. David and Eilis were fantastic hosts who ensured everything was perfect for our stay
