Kinsale Coastal Cottages

A beautiful cottage right along the Atlantic. Close to coffee shops & pubs. Think relaxing as that is what it is.

Precioso apartamento cómodo muy bien equipado caminando a pie de playa

Locatiion. Amazing sheets. Loads of glasses, plates etc. Nice decor.

Nothing

Super süßes Häuschen direkt am Strand. Parkmöglichkeit vor der Tür. Wunderschöne Aussicht. Tolle Lage kurzer Weg nach Kinsale.

Cottage très bien équipé : lave-linge et lave vaisselle, 4 chambres et 3 salles de bain. Emplacement au calme à côté de la plage.

Les lits sont particulièrement inconfortables, les matelas sont assez récents mais les sommiers datent des années 80, donc l'ensemble de la literie est très mauvais dans toutes les chambres, c'est vraiment dommage car tout le reste était parfait dans le cottage.

Very comfortable house with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Perfect for a group of friends. Liam was very helpful and easy to communicate with. Very quiet and wonderful environment. Strong recommendations for the restaurant 'Stranded' (just a few steps away) as well as 'Hurley's' in Ballinspittle.'Specled Door' however, which we've know for more than 15 years as a wonderful place, was very disappointing foodwise.

House was very clean but for the stove and some kitchen utensils. More than 5 small spoons, a second pan and one or two kitchen bowls would have been wonderful. Easy to fix and nothing not to overcome :-) - did not spoil our vacation.

Outrageously expensive

House was clean, good location. Exactly as described

The heating isn’t ideal. Arrived late as mentioned to host beforehand. No heating on and the house was very cold. The rooms are all heated individually and no timers preset. The heating in the kitchen/living area is heated by panel heaters which cannot be set on a timer meaning it’s always cold on arrival back to the house.

Lovely comfortable spacious cottage. Perfect for a holiday- great location. Quiet and scenic.

The property was lovely - but with 8 adults more couch/ armchair seating would be better. You’ll need to bring your own set up if you want TV as the normal aerial input has no signal.

Closeness to the beach. Spacious, comfortable, spotlessly clean house.

Proximity to two beautiful beaches & hiking around Old Head of Kinsale

The property was great

We stayed for a week in October half-term. We loved the location, gorgeous beach and close to kinsale.

Great location, lovely cottage, very clean

We had a family of five going to the beach daily, resulting in many wet towels and swimsuits. However there was no clothes line outside and the washer dryer wasn’t sufficient to dry more than one towel in a few hours. I would definitely suggest that better laundry drying facilities be provided

We loved the location of the cottages. They were very comfortable and very clean.

Having five people staying in the cottage and going to the beach every day there was quite a lot of wet towels and swimsuits, etc. there was no clothesline to hang out our clothes and towels, and when it was raining, we had no way of drying anything. There was a washer tumble dryer that could dry one towel in three hours. I would suggest a proper tumble dryer would definitely add to the convenience of the property

Excellent location just steps from two great beaches, and 5 minutes' drive from Ballinspittle with your local shop, pub and restaurant. Magda made check-in and check-out seamless, and left us some basics in the fridge.

Fabulous stay at Kinsale cottages.. Great location, cosy, clean and comfortable..

Cleanliness, facilities

Aging furniture but completely useable

Very clean and very comfortable. Nicely set up and well equipped. Very peaceful location a stone's throw from the beach.

Would be nice to have the fire set for a fire for the first night.

Lovely and warn. Beautifully clean

Expensive for 2 people .

Near to beach and Kinsale town

Lots of issues like no showers working due to faulty electricity switch kept tripping and water at boiling point😱. Fire alarm faulty. No garden furniture on the premises fir family meals outside, although other houses had some. House was not inspected properly before our arrival as issues were in situ on arrival. They were seen to when phone call made but this cost us two days of our holiday. 6 adults and 4 children not good enough for the expensive price charged. ??outside garden needs to be cornered off for small children’s safety.

The hose was very comfortable and had a well equipped kitchen. The location was perfect.

It would have been nice to have a couple of chairs to sit in outdoors or to take to the beach.

Very clean and comfortable

All good except for the kitchen equipment- no bin liners or can opener- supplied the next day and no coffee plunger. Only a very small frying pan - not great given that it sleeps eight.

We had a brilliant stay in 6 Kinsale Coastal Cottages. The house was deceptively spacious, extremely clean and very well equipped. We particularly liked the two benches out the front which allowed us to sit and have a coffee/breakfast overlooking the lovely coast. Magda was excellent and dealt with our initial issue ref hot water promptly and courteously. It was perfectly located between two beaches and a 10 minute walk to lovely tapas/pizzeria Stranded. Bean and Berry Cafe also worth a visit- stunning views (15 mins walk up hill from the cottage). Cannot recommend this property and Magda enough!

Location was lovely for a restful holiday beside the beach. Bonus to find one bedroom was en suite and there was another shower room in addition to advertised bathroom. Downstairs bedrooms suited older family members. Info for sorting litter and recycling it in bins would be good

Maybe a table outside to eat al fresco weather permitting but no complaints with what was provided already

Proximity to beautiful beach was awesome Really works with kids

Shops/restaurants are a short drive away. The restaurant within walking distance rarely had availability

Position number of bedrooms number of bathrooms facilities cleanliness

Happy with everything

Wonderful all round. Great location. Nice host--just great.

Not a thing.

Location is perfect for a gateway near beach. Not very far from the closet village if you have a car

Coffee machine needed. Checkout time 10am is a bit early considering we had small children. If the check-in time is 4pm then checkout time should be around 11 am

Right beside beach. House was recently renovated and very clean, very spacious and well equipped.

Great location by the beach. Good for exploring the coastline

Location is pleasant. Nice Walks.

Warm place and nice views

Everything was OK and will come back whit pleasure

We had a fantastic stay, the host Magda was super accomodating. Nothing was too much trouble and we were alllowed to check out later which really helped with our flights. The rooms were super clean, the cottage is big and bright, The views are breath taking. We will definitely be back again.

Nothing it was super!!!

Location and comfort

Instructions for the storage/dimplex heating and hot water would have been helpful

Cozy quiet house across from the beach

Needs updating. Shower curtain in main bath kept falling off. Another shower broken Need a coffeemaker

Excellent location-Right next to the blue flag beach and another blue flag beach 5 mins walk away. Only 15 min drive to kinsale and approx 30mins to Clonakilty and Inchydoney. The house provided lots of space for our family and 3 bathrooms. The open fire was a lovely addition to this cosy cottage. The host leaving us t-bags, milk, biscuits and fruit on arrival was much appreciated

The cottage could do with a revamp but the host said it will be done for next year 2024. One of the bedroom windows was broken which unfortunately was during wet and stormy weather 😕

location, size, cleanliness.

The only thing to make our stay better would have been a coffee maker.

the location and view. it was quiet and rooms were sufficient size with enough bathrooms.

would have been nice to have a filter coffee machine.

the location is spectacular and the cottage was very comfortable

There was milk, tea and all the basics left for us, the property was clean and warm when we arrived . The area is lovely and a very short drive to Ballinspittle and Kinsale. we stayed two nights and the location and size of the property was ideal.

House was spotlessly clean, well appointed and comfortable beds. Nice touches like fresh flowers fresh milk and biscuits on arrival.

very little, i was impressed with the house overall.

Location is just amazing, wonderful area. Nice and quiet.

Garden not fenced and therefore full of excrements...from dogs from other houses nearby.

It was warm clean and comfortable and Magda and the cleaner were very friendly.

The 10 am leaving time was a little early. The actual site was not clearly signposted and we did get lost trying to find it as it was dark.

The cottage (we had No. 6) is located about 2 minutes away from the beach, the coast and beach are stunning. The cottage has a lot of space, for 8 people no problem. Also very quiet around. Bed clothes, towels and baths were clean. Equipment in kitchen was all working.

There were a lot of pet hairs around, not nice for people with allergies. Only small investment would increase feeling comfortable, e.g. new TV remote and the shower curtain upstairs was awkward. It would be nice to have chairs for sitting outside at the backside of the cottage.

The location was very convenient for the beach (had hoped to go swimming but it was rather cold and windy) and for coastal walks - we enjoyed our walk out to the signal station on Old Head. We also enjoyed our meal at The Speckled Door pub nearby. There was plenty of space in the house and it was well provided with kitchen equipment. The beds were comfortable.

We arrived late at night and it was dark, so we had difficulty finding the property. It would be helpful if the sign was by the road, rather than up the drive. Our TomTom couldn't find the postcode - should have used Google maps on my phone! The electric storage heaters in the living room and hall didn't really warm up so, if you were out all day and it wasn't worth lighting the open fire, the living room was rather cool in the mornings and evenings.

Cute little house in a fab location! Right next to the beach and coastal walks, and not too far from Kinsale and even Cork. House is great value for money and a great size for 8 people, deceivingly big!

This didn't affect our stay but just an observation, the house is quite dated so could probably do with an uplift, still has old storage heaters and hot water heater (which wasn't enough for 8 ladies washing their hair!), although I'm not sure whether this is due to regulations. Although this is also probably reflected in great price!
