Elm Grove

Great location, walking distance to town. The house was beautiful, Fionnuala a fantastic host. She couldn't do enough for us. The room was spotless, we had everything we needed and more. Very comfortable bed. We had a double aspect room with a view to the sea. The scones and orange juice were delicious.

Nothing. Highly recommend.

Great place to stay. Fionnula was a fantastic host. Super responsive and welcoming. Contacted me in advance about breakfast as I was biking and travelling light. Suggestion for dinned (New Haven Restaurant) was also spot on.

Elm Grove ist sehr luxuriös ausgestattet. Vor allem gab es in dem Zimmer sehr viel Stauraum. Das Bad war außergewöhnlich groß und excellent ausgestattet. Zum Frühstück gab es frische Scons mit Cream, Butter, Marmelade und Orangensaft aufs Zimmer serviert. Für Getränke (Wasser, Kaffee, Tee) wird ausreichend gesorgt. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig in einer Wohngegend, aber fußläufig zum Ort und zum Hafen. Wir wurden sehr nett umsorgt, absolult empfehlenswert für einen Aufenthalt in Schull und auch ideal für einen längeren Aufenthalt.

Wir haben absolut nichts auszusetzen!

Clean, comfortable within walking distance to town. Friendly owner.

Parking was tight but was free and available.

Lovely warm, homemade scones for breakfast, if requested. :) Fionnula was very welcoming, and the room was so comfortable with everything you might possibly need for a visit to West Cork. So many nice touches throughout. I love the area on Colla Road for walks with beautiful views of Schull Harbour. I'll be back!

Modern, clean, private, nice bonus comfy features

Coming from the USA I’m more used to sheets. I wish I’d had that option as it did get a bit hot at night

Beautiful property. Exceptionally clean. Immaculate bathroom with toiletries provided. Hairdryer also provided. The provision of bottled water was a lovely touch. Slept very well, bed very comfortable. Lovely outside terrace if you want to sit and chill. Very good location, only 5 mins walk to Schull High Street. We would definitely book again and Fionnuala is an outstanding host. Thank you very much.

Nothing.

This immaculately clean and very tastefully decorated house is only a few minutes walk from the town. It's very quiet and comfortable, and ideal for either solo travellers or couples. There are lovely walks nearby too. All in all, excellent!

Zero complaints!

Très bon accueil - Chambre très bien équipée et très propre

Logement incroyable. Très propre et confortable. À recommander sans hésitation ! Merci !

Très belle chambre dans une maison très confortable au calme avec une immense salle de bain attenante (passage par un couloir). Belle décoration et grande terrasse accessible par beau temps pour un petit-déjeuner à base de scones maison à commander sur place. Accueil très attentionné et discret. Juste ce qu'il faut.

Eine fantastische Unterkunft mit Blick aufs Meer, die durch geschmackvolle Einrichtung und Sauberkeit beeindruckt hat. Auch ein wunderbares Frühstück mit selbstgebackenen Scones gab es und die Gastgeberin war sehr freundlich. ein echter Geheimtipp

Lovely welcome, spotless house, and a lovely sunny patio with the swifts getting ready to fly. We liked that there were no plastic jam/butter/ yoghurt pots, shampoo etc. Fionnuala has worked out ways to make things available generously, but in a low waste way. Lovely fresh scones.

This conveniently located home stay is top class with a great host who is welcoming and helpful. The place is sparkling clean and you can see the effort the hosts make to maintaining the property to a high standard. The bedroom is well equipped and the mattress comfortable. Tea making facilities are in the room and the hosts ensure that fresh milk is available. Check in is welcoming.

All was good

Stanza molto bella e accogliente. Colazione ottima e parcheggio interno alla struttura. Con una passeggiata di dieci minuti si arriva alla spiaggia

We were extremely disappointed with this guest house and believe that the information on Booking.com is misleading to guests. First of all, the listing states that there is a barbecue area available. In reality, guests are not allowed to use it. The host explicitly told us that she does not permit barbecues because “students might see it and also want to use it.” In other words, the barbecue area exists only “for show,” but guests are left misled and frustrated. If a facility is not available, it should not be advertised! Secondly, the so-called “fridge” in the room is simply ridiculous. It is so tiny that not even a standard bottle of wine fits inside — only a single can of soda. On top of that, it barely cooled anything at all, so our products stayed warm and basically went to waste. We brought steaks and other food with us, expecting proper facilities as described, and ended up in a very unpleasant situation. To make matters worse, the sink in the bathroom was unbelievably small — about the size of an A4 sheet of paper. It was extremely inconvenient to use on a daily basis and only added to the frustration. Also, there is no proper restaurant on-site, even though the description makes it sound like dining would not be a problem. The host told us that there are restaurants in the nearby village, just a 5-minute walk away. That is true — there are several restaurants there — but when we arrived, all of them were fully booked. It turns out you need to make reservations in advance if you want to eat there, but we were never warned about this. In the end, we had no choice but to eat low-quality Chinese takeaway instead of enjoying a proper dinner. Very disappointing after a long journey. In the end, what was promised and what we actually got were completely different. This feels like false advertising and a very dishonest approach to hosting. We travel a lot, but this was the first time we encountered such a blatant mismatch between description and reality.

The owner was very welcoming and the room is impressive with a lot of care put in all details. Breakfast served in the morning is a treat!

La camera era molto luminosa, pulita e confortevole. Il bagno era situato proprio all'esterno della camera ed era fornito di tutto. Con 6 euro abbiamo ricevuto anche la colazione in camera (scones con confettura e panna, latte e succo di frutta). Comodo il parcheggio. Possibilità di rilassarsi nel giardino, cosa che però non abbiamo fatto per motivi di tempo. Tutta la cittadina è bellissima, tranquilla e accogliente.

La connessione wi-fi nella nostra camera era molto debole e quindi non abbiamo potuto utilizzarla.

Great location, a few mins walk from village. Very well run and added bonus of optional home baked scones and orange juice in the morning, which was a real treat.

Absolute perfection at its best 👌

Exceptional accommodation -design and decor. Fionnuala’s super scones each morning - there was nothing amiss. Highly recommend.

Everything about this accommodation is beautiful! The host is so helpful, nothing was a problem for her.

Wow, what an amazing house finished to the absolute best, tea and coffee and water in the room, sky TV, private bathroom across the hall finished exceptionally, host was such a nice woman and gave plenty of advice, a real warm home.

Nothing.

The house was beautiful with a lovely bathroom and bedroom. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and it’s only a short walk into Schull. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Lovely room and private bathroom with everything you need. The fresh baled scones are 100% worth adding on for the morning

Everything! The host thought of everything you’d need and it’s so incredibly clean and comfortable. The location is also perfect and close to the water. Highly recommend!!

Very welcoming. Spotless. Beautiful place. Everything was perfect. We'll come back.

Gorgeous house, beautiful finishes throughout, even had sky TV in the room, spotlessly Clean

Great host great location

Fab place. Modern, eco and beautifully done, friendly and helpful host. Lovely scones.

Wonderful Room with beautiful views and lovely added personal touches. Attention to detail was perfect. Delicious homemade scones for breakfast was great. And only a short walk into the town.

Nothing

Very clean, everything in the room you need. Very well stocked.

Bathroom was not en-suite

Nice Place. Friendly people. Creative wall decorations of Apple products. We sleep upstairs in a quiet room that could be very hot in the summer. But at the beginning of May, while the sun was shining the whole day it wasn't an issue at all. Only if you've difficulty climbing the narrow spiral stair, the host has no hesitation to help carry your luggage.

Not really. Be careful going down the stair.

Great location, a few minutes walk from the village. The room was as advertised and very clean. Fionnuala was very responsive to any requests.

Nothing. It's an ideal room for a short visit to a lovely village.

A lovely clean room with thoughtful little details. Fionualla was really nice, she recommended a place for dinner, got me extra water with peppermint leaves, I could even leave the car at the place until after the race; everything was just perfect and more. I felt at home straight away. The bed was super comfortable and I had a great night sleep before the race.

Easy access to town center and tourist area,beautiful scenery near the place

Very hospitable and welcoming host. Very clean and everything provided.

Fabulous stay stones throw from schull, exceptionally clean and very comfortable, lovely scones too ! Many thanks Fionnuala

Gorgeous guest house, spotlessly clean, and great location, we could walk in and out to the village in minutes. Lovey host Fionnuala made fresh scones with jam and cream in the mornings. The room and bathroom were spotless too.

Elm Grove is a modern and immaculately clean and comfortable property. Fionnuala and her husband are the most welcoming hosts. They were so helpful in helping me work out what to see over my 3 day stay. A particular highlight was the Night time Kayaking experience at Lough Inagh. I couldn't have made this happen without their guidance. The house was a lovely place to relax after a busy day exploring. They are very kind and attentive and will make every effort to make sure you have what you need for your stay. There is a lovely exterior patio to sit outside. The B and B is 1 mins walk from great restaurants and pubs, craft shops and galleries in Schull. There is a lovely harbour walk and a nice loop overlooking Schull at the back of their house. I would love to stay with Fionnula again as there is great comfort in the house and you are in the heart of Schull too.

It was all perfect including the weather.

Lovely airy room. Great choice of hot drinks. Lovely little details like chocolate on the pilow, sleep mask, little fridge, wee bottle of milk. Great shower. The view was perfect 👌

A very clean room, which is close to the centre of Schull. The host was very helpful.

Filling in this field, just for the sake of filling it.

Absolutely beautiful Accomodation - best we have stayed in on our holiday

We enjoyed our stay, it was all perfect. Very kind host, bedroom en patio were we had our scones in the morning

Just perfect in every way

Nothing to dislike

Fantastic accommodation within a short walk to Schull. Room was clean and lovely decorated. The scones in the morning were fresh and delicious. Free parking

N/A

So so clean and beautiful

Location comfort and clean

Comfortable, pristine accomodationFive minute walk from the centre of Schull. Scones with real cream on the sundrenched patio in the morning was a bonus.

We had the annex room which has some advantages and disadvantages: it has large windows with a view of the sea and feels private. You reach it via a narrow spiral staircase which might be tricky if you are less mobile or have a large suitcase. We liked the location - a short walk from the centre of the village down a quiet street. The garden has lovely patio with table and chairs. Easy parking.

In the annex room, the blinds don't cover the upper section of the windows so you'll need blindfolds (provided) to sleep past sunrise. No breakfast, but Fionnuala will bring you some scones and cream if you tell her the day before - these were great.

It was a lovel stay, a lovely house and a very spacious bathroom!

The room was amazing, it was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Fionnuala is lovely and made us delicious scones. The view from the room was stunning. We will defo go back.

No breakfast- hosts very helpful - location great for town and restaurants

Double bed was comfortable but would have preferred king size

The room was stunning and the scones were lovely

Very beautiful, clean and comfortable room close to Schull village owned by a very friendly host

Very comfortable stay in a lovely guest house. Nice stroll to get a bite to eat in town. Really glad we chose to stay here!

We had a great stay, no complaints!

It was all the little touches that made this place so nice, from fresh baked scones on our first morning to coming back to fresh bottles of water while we were gone during the day. Beautiful view from the annex room too!

Lovely house and location

The room we stayed i.e. the sea facing attic room was very well kept and constructed thoughtfully . Great facilities provided . I loved staying here.

I had a wonderful stay at Elm Grove! The location is fantastic, being just a short walk from the village, which made it really convenient for exploring. The owner, a lovely lady, was incredibly welcoming and attentive. She went out of her way to ensure that we felt comfortable and at home, making the experience even more special. I truly felt like I was staying in a second home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a cozy, friendly, and well-located spot!

Honestly, everything was great! There’s nothing I didn't like. The stay was comfortable, the location was perfect, and the hospitality was top-notch.

Elm Grove was an easy stroll to the centre of Schull. Fionnula was a great host and very quick to respond to my messages when I had questions The small touches like the bottles of water, fresh every day was just lovely to get. The room was so clean and didn't have the heavy smell that some cleaning products have which made me feel like extra care was taken to ensure quality products were used. The annex while being attached to someone's home felt like it was away on its own. Really enjoyed my stay. Honestly I couldn't fault the place at all

Location good, just ma ten minute walk from the small town, where there are plenty of pubs and restaurants. Welcoming hostess, comfortable room.

No TV remote, which didn;t bother me I could have askedif I waned one

Spotless!

I liked everything

This is a stunning property in an amazing location. The host was so warm and welcoming but also respectful of boundaries. The bed was so comfortable and the decor and little touches were so lovely. It really is amazing value.

Although you could not find a better bathroom, exceptional shower and fluffy towels with a top of the range demisting system, it was a bit awkward having to leave the room to use it, but in all it was a minor thing and it was advised before we arrived.
