Comfortable accommodations in Bantry

“The B&B is not only beautifully situated, it is also run with great care. Extremely comfortable beds, stylish furnishings and a modern bathroom ensure a wonderful night's sleep. There is also a great breakfast in the morning. The hosts help wherever possible - they also pick up hikers and take them to the next stage. We felt completely comfortable!”

“Exceptionally warm welcome with tea and scones after a long day of driving we were given our choice of rooms. One with a nice study desk and another with sea views to Beara Peninsula. The bed was comfy and the room spotless. Beautiful grounds with a number of outdoor tables and chairs. Breakfast the following morning was phenomenal. We really hope to visit again.”

“Today we went kayaking for three hours... It was a very nice experience! The staff is very kind and helps you getting well with the equipment. Thank you very much!!”

“Lovely cinema theatre with full screen, great sound and comfy seats.”

“A fantastic place to stay in a beautiful part of the world. Not too many places that have the Cork and Kerry mountains, quite literally, on your doorstep! Awesome!”

“We stayed here in order to be close to our grandparents who live down the hill and it was the most stunning stay! We could not believe the incredible views from the lodge. It was so warm and had all the facilities that we could need and more. The size was lovely, Nora was amazing. Thank you for having us! So beautiful and we hope to be back soon!”

“We had the most wonderful time at Westerly house with family in August. The house is beautiful, great space for everyone to come together and rooms to allow for some quiet time. We got great use out of the outdoor canadian hot tub, such a great facility to have! Equally the kayaks, we were out nearly twice a day on the kayaks... The children especially loved jumping off the pontoon into the bay. Al of the bedrooms are gorgeous but the Victorian White bedroom is a showstopper... Absolutely stunning... The gardens are also really well maintained.. we enjoyed exploring all the books and crannies.. Overall we would highly recommend Westerly house for an amazing stay in West Cork.. I only wish it was pet friendly so we could bring the canine family member too !”

“Mary is so incredibly patient and calm. She makes learning easy and will adapt her teaching to suit whatever type of learner you are. Recommended highly.”

“Just the most amazingly relaxing and splendidly beautiful place to stay to see the lovely area... hosts are great also ...”

“We've holidayed at Finn and Claire's superb holiday homes every year since 2018. They are wonderful hosts - friendly, helpful, genuine people. Both properties, The Loft and Masons, are perfectly located, you only have to step outside the front doors and you are on the spectacular Sheep's Head Way. The Loft is perfect for two/three people and has been lovingly restored. It is a home from home with a difference - its balcony affords beautiful views across Dunmanus Bay. This year, friends from France joined us so we stayed in Masons, which was also very comfortable and catered for all our needs - pristine, modern bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, fantastic Wifi and Sky TV, and most importantly, amazing views of the Bay through a large window in the sitting room. In these days of high fuel prices and if you enjoy hiking, once you arrive at either property, you don't need to drive again until you're leaving. However, if you do want a change from hiking, there are lots of places to go including Bantry, Schull, Skibbereen and Glengarriff.”

“Jennie was the perfect hostess. The breakfast offered is hearty! The rooms are clean with bright decor. Near a beautiful view of the ocean. The wifi is a little spotty but that should not be a problem if you are looking for a restful getaway.”

“Very dog friendly. Fantastic views. Mike and Julia were excellent hosts and made us very welcome including the dog. Access to kitchen at all times to make a coffee or tea was a bonus especially the jar of homemade flapjacks. Would definitely recommend”

“Just back from a great stay here. Siobhan is a brilliant host, so friendly and welcoming. We had a beautiful room with a great view of the bay, a view that changed so much morning to evening it was like staying in a different room. The bed was so comfortable and every detail was thought of, like providing wine glasses, bottled water and a coffee machine and selection of herbal teas in each room. The breakfast was fantastic, beautiful, locally sourced bacon and eggs and the bread was out of this world. I'd give it 6 stars if I could.”

“We stayed here for our most recent trip to Glengarriff parkrun, this b&b is in a superb location with half a mile from both the parkrun & pubs. The b&b is located on the river and there are kayaks available to use. The owner puts on a good breakfast and is very approachable and is just a wee dote. Well worth visiting.”

“Amazing place to stay, our host was very kind and helpful, everything was just perfect, the room,breakfast, the view,amazingly clean. Would come back for sure, recommend 10/10”

“I booked a pitch in Goats Path Farm for myself, my husband and two kids for two nights. This was our first real experience camping and it was just amazing. The place was so well kept and clean. There is outside sinks, showers and toilets that are cleaned very regularly. There is a playground for the kids and a fairy forest and the children loved every minute. It is so safe. Chris , his wife and children are so so helpful. Very professional and friendly. We loved it so much that we booked the following week. This is Chris' first year opened. The standard was so high for his first year, I can't imagine what the future holds for him. You would think he was doing it for years. Can't wait to come back next year.”

“Very friendly hosts. Rooms were clean, beds were comfortable :) we had a great stay. Thank you very much :)”

“Gorgeous view - on the water overlooking of Bere Island. The B and B is spotless and the room extremely comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was delicious, fresh and healthy. Best of all was the warm welcome and lovely conversation with the owners. We’d love to stay again.”

“We stayed here for 2 nights as we were starting the Béara Way trek from Glengarrif. Imelda was such a warm and welcoming host. The B&B is spotless, breakfast was delicious - the best we have had in any B&B in Ireland! Rooms clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend this as a place to stay. Really close to village and beside Eccles hotel. Caters for vegans!!!! Imelda also let us leave our car free of charge for the week while we went hiking.”

“We stayed in the barn at grove house on a Monday and Tuesda in late November. This place is amazing. The Private outdoor hot tub is a fantastic addition to this perfect building. Despite the cooler temperatures we made great use of it, and if the weather had gotten in the way, the double Jacuzzi bath would have made a great substitute. We are already looking at dates for a return trip here. I highly recommend this little peice of heaven in west cork.”

“Honestly, the best b&b I have ever stayed in and there has been alot, firstly the view from the room of bantry bay was out of this world, the room was big, comfy and spotlessly clean. The breakfast every morning was perfect and what can I say about the owners, the lady of the house was such a great host and a great laugh, and her husband was so knowledgeable about the area and great to chat to.i couldn't recommend it more!!”

“I've had the pleasure of using Hagal Farm for hosting massage workshops and they really took such fantastic care of our group that I would not hesitate to recommend it on and it will be my first choice in future. The energy of this valley is magic, and a walk from the farm is both meditative and restoring. The gardens are tended with care, and beautiful herbs and veggies grown on site find their way to the kitchen for wholesome, nourishing meals made with love. Try their refreshing homemade herbal teas! We had the use of several workshop spaces which was fantastic to be able to set up different areas for different uses during the few days. Super hosts were incredibly helpful, I cannot recommend highly enough.”

“My favourite shoe shop. I always find something that I like here”

“Beautiful estate would recomend anyone to try it for a week lovley gardens surrounding the property and the staff were very nice too.”

“Budget hostel. Nice kitchen. Warm and cozy common room. Bedrooms below average. Very basic. Plenty of shared bathrooms. Bring your own shower gel and shampoo. Not provided here. Host is very friendly and nice. Enjoyed our stay.”

“Wow! Been to Glengarrif so many times but never took this ferry to Garnish Island before. Don't know why l waited. Highly recommend.”

“Once you open door you are greeted by very friendly staff who see to your needs immediately”

“We discovered this gem this year, and have eaten there many times over the summer. There is always a warm welcome and the quality of food is top class. It is also wheelchair accessible. Highly recommend it.”

“The owner and the staff we very welcoming. It is a family run buisness which has been passed down through the yrs. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Will definetly go back there.”

“After a car breakdown we needed a B&B to stay in so took a shot that they would have a room, we could not have had a better experience. When we arrived we were stressed and tired but that changed in minutes with a lovely cup of tea and ginger bread in the garden. Everyone was just so lovely and the room and B&B were fabulous (they even gave us a incredibly generous gift of a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate our honeymoon). I cannot recommend Doire Liath highly enough.”
