This house was perfect for two couples. It was in a nice quiet residential area and central to every place we wanted to venture to. Blarney castle right down the road. Had a rainy afternoon and decided to stay in, cook a meal, and relax with the TV. Grocery store right nearby, and highly recommend The Barn Gastropub for a meal. Won't be disappointed!

The place had a king and a double ,not comfortable for 2 couples. There was cooking oven available, no oven mitts? Towels but not towel bars? No dishcloth to wipe in the kitchen. No where to hang anything, coats or clothes. If the price point was lower it would have seemed reasonable, as is not so.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 June 2026
Thank you for your feedback. However, we feel it's important to address a number of inaccuracies in this review. The bed configuration — one king and one double — is clearly and explicitly stated in our listing. This was available to read prior to booking. Clothes rails were provided for hanging items, and dishcloths were stocked in the kitchen. These were present throughout your stay. Oven mitts have never been raised as a concern by any previous guest, and towel bars are not something that affects the functionality of the property. We maintain a consistently high standard at this property, as evidenced by our reviews. We're sorry this stay didn't meet your expectations, but we do feel that several of the points raised do not accurately reflect what was provided.

Overall this was a great place to stay. The entrance to the property is slightly difficult to navigate and the hot water does not heat the upstairs showers, but other than that it was clean, comfortable and safe.

Hi Amber, Thanks for your nice review. Hot in showers both upstairs and downstairs works as it is the one heating system. If you had contacted me I would have resolved whatever issue you had. Enjoy the rest of your holiday. Regards Jeremy.

The inside of the house was clean. The outside could use some sprucing up. The grass was overgrown and the outside furniture was in rough shape and overturned. The description of the property advertises a shower/tub in the downstairs bathroom. This is not accurate. The downstairs tub had a handheld sprayer. There was no curtain rod or shower curtain . I do not consider this a shower. Because of this set up, the four of us had to shower upstairs. When we arrived we followed the instructions and turned on the heat which also controls the water heater. The heat remained on the entire time during our stay. We had to stagger taking showers. Two of us showered in the evening, two in the morning. Unfortunately the second person would end up with cold water. The heat was on the entire time. There was another guest who had a similar complaint in a previous review so I am guessing this is an ongoing issue. I explained this to Jeremy and he just asked if the heat was on. Additionally the 2nd night of our stay the internet was freezing up and going in and out. My son had some online College classes he had to complete assignments for and was unable to due to this issue. We decided to leave a day early because of the issues. I did request a refund for the one night which we did not get. I have used VRBO many times and I can say this is the first time I was disappointed in a property.

**Exterior presentation** • Noted. We will ensure this is maintained to a higher standard between bookings. **Downstairs bathroom** • The listing clearly states a shower ensuite upstairs and a bathroom downstairs. It has never been advertised as a shower. **Hot water / heating** • Full operating instructions are provided in our Welcome Guide on the VRBO app. • A member of your party switched off the main heating pump, which directly caused the loss of hot water. This was not a system fault and was outside our control. • Had the system been used as instructed, hot water would have been available throughout. **Broadband** • The connection was tested via speed test following your complaint and was found to be fully operational. The issue was not on our end. **Early departure** • Unfortunately, you did not contact us during your stay to allow us to address any of these concerns. We received a late text that morning simply announcing you were checking out — giving us no opportunity to help. **Refund** • As the main issues raised were caused by guest action or a misreading of the listing, and as we were given no chance to resolve anything during the stay, we were unable to issue a refund for the unused night.

Great little spot just outside of Cork

The only two improvements that I would suggest would be 1) a cutting board and 2) new pillows. The ones that were there were very flat.

Quick Stay in Cork

We had a quick stay here during our honeymoon. The location was perfect for when we went to the St Patrick’s Day Parade, only 10 minute drive! The house was the perfect size and provided all the amenities we needed. After staying in multiple hotels, it was nice to have a whole house to utilize, even if just for a short period. The check in/check out process was an absolute breeze!
