We loved our stay at West Cork. We stayed there our first 2 nights in Ireland. Our room had a balcony where we could look out at the town and the river. Breakfast was so good. Not only was there a cold buffet but we could order off the menu. This was included in the price of our room, which was a reasonable price. The absolute best part was the staff. They were all incredibly nice, but I want to especially mention Csaba at the front desk. He greeted us when we first arrived, and was very helpful. I want to also mention Paul Cheung in the bar. Our first night in Ireland, we were tired and very hungry and didn't want to go anywhere. Paul had dinner brought to us in the bar, and I have to say it was some of the best food we had during our trip. Absolutely delicious! Both of these men as well as the breakfast staff and other staff at the front desk were all very warm yet professional and so kind. Thank you!

Absolutely gorgeous, met and exceeded my expectations. Easy to find just off the Wild Atlantic Way, Bebhinn & Brian gave excellent instructions and even had the bed made before I arrived. Got in fairly late in the afternoon so I didn't see Bebhinn & Brian then but managed to catch Bebhinn before I left in the morning.

Very nice location. The lady owner was very friendly and made a fabulous breakfast. The room for 3 is very small but the beds are comfortable and the bedding was beautiful. Thiny bathroom but very clean.
This family-run hotel has a quiet location, looking out over the harbor and the mouth of the River Ilen. It has free parking, a traditional Irish pub and an award-winning seafood restaurant.

Casey’s of Baltimore is quaint and cozy, with kind staff. We had a great nights sleep in the quiet environment and all the food at the restaurant and the breakfast was fabulous.
Overlooking a beautiful bay on Ireland’s south coast, Channel View offers peaceful accommodations with free Wi-Fi. A delicious breakfast with home-baking and local produce is served every morning.

We had a lovely stay at Channel View...the view is truly spectacular. Margaret was very welcoming and the room was spotless.
It was great. But unless you have "sat-nav", booking.com directions won't get you there. We were using an Eirecode finder on my phone but as we got close, internet service suddenly quit. We had to telephone.

Do visit the art centre and the heritage centre, which has a largeish display about the famine, though it rather conceals the background reasons for why people were so impoverished -- ie, hundreds of years of oppression of Catholics by England. But we both learned a lot. Lough Hyne, by comparison, is not such a big deal. It may be a marine reserve, but there's very little wildlife there. A good place for swimming, however. The Church restaurant is fairly good, but very expensive, like so many restaurants in Ireland (ie, compared with London)

Skibbereen is a surprising pleasure. lovely small but varied high street, worth a wander, with variety of shops. Local Fields worth dropping in for the local produce and cakes. Lovely dinner at The Church Restaurant. Famine museum was definitely worth a visit too. Nicely done- lots of info and presented in a style where you leave sobered but not depressed!

People are very helpful and friendly, lovely shops, great farmers market with a great variety of stalls. Lots of cafes and we loved the Church Restaurant. Close proximity to coastal villages of Baltimore, Glandore, Union Hall and Castletownsend. Steeped in rich history and beautiful scenery! Loved the West Cork Hotel, we had such a peaceful and relaxing few days.

We loved the social life and made the most of the local pubs and restaurants. We especially liked the Church Restaurant and also had a couple of evenings in the Corner Pub.
The Saturday morning Farmers' Market was excellent, as was the range of cafes and boutique shops.
We enjoyed the Heritage Centre and the helpful genealogist helped me locate my living relatives in the town!
Within close proximity of the town are some lovely walks too.

Skibbereen town itself was okay, not many cafe options or restaurants. Grand place to pop into for a few bits. Wouldn't be a place I would stay for a break too busy. Eldon Hotel not up to Covid standards for restaurant service, no face masks or face shields on any staff, sanitizing rushed using same cloth for tables half wiped. Staff on top of each other & customers. Getting around Skibbereen a bit confusing as a lot of one way systems. Not much activity.
The B&B was lovely and clean with handy fridge out on landing.
The breakfasts were absolutely beautiful.
The location is great, fantastic base for traveling around West Cork ;Castletownshend 5 minute drive, Skibbereen 10 minutes drive, Baltimore 25 minutes, Bantry 35 minutes, Glandore 20 minutes.
There’s a gorgeous beach 5 minute walk from the B&B.
The hosts Kathleen and John could not have been more welcoming and helpful during our stay!
Would definitely recommend ⭐️
We will be back no doubt to revisit!
Christine and Ken (and the kids) embody the authentic warm Irish welcome experience. I’m from the area and have been away for 30 years. To come back and stay in their apartment and be welcomed into their home for a proper Irish breakfast and chat was heart filling and a wonderful way to introduce my partner and son to the Irish way of life. For as long as they offer this bed and breakfast, I will be a repeat customer. 5 stars
Christine and her lovely family were the best hosts we could imagine. We will definitely come back the next time we come to Ireland. The cottage was very convenient and cosy. The area is absolutely beautiful and offers many opportunities for hiking, running and water sports nearby. We loved Heir Island, Cape Clear and Lough Hyne. We wish we could have stayed longer.
Great B&B, easy to find in a quiet location only a short drive from the centre of Skibbereen. The room was very comfy and had everything I need for my stay. Breakfast was lovely, there is a choice of cereal, fruit as well as a cooked breakfast. Marguerite is a lovely lady and a great host very welcoming and helpful.
I would definitely stay here again.
Ann and Séamus were fantastic hosts- Really friendly and accommodating- The room was very clean, the house was beautiful and the breakfast was excellent- They were so kind and even gave me a lift to a nearby venue that I was attending for a wedding- I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a stay around the Skibereen and South West Cork area
It is a very beautiful remote house, just outside of Skibbereen. The neighborhood is quiet and it’s generally a good place to stay. Pat and Kaithleen were very accommodating and helpful, quite pleasant people. Pat is very positive and talkative and want to learn a lot of stuff about his visitors and their country.
We stayed in Annie Mays for two nights and had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. We ate there both nights and the meals were delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would recommend this b&b - location is right in the centre of Skibbereen. Large parking area across the road
Marguerite was our favorite hostess during our trip. She was thoughtful, gave good suggestions for our time in the area, and the breakfast was delicious. She was very flexible when we changed our arrival time at the last minute to accommodate some schedule changes.
We had a wonderful time at Atlantic House. Kathleen is a marvelous host and makes every effort to make her guests feel comfortable and welcome - she is also a wealth of information about the beautiful area she lives in
Beautiful hotel in fantastic location. All the staff made us feel welcome from the minute we arrived. Our room was superb and the bed really comfortable. Food in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast was excellent.
The apartment was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location was great, both for visiting Skibbereen and as a base for exploring West Cork. Frank was very welcoming and helpful which we really appreciated!
All buildings were very nice with a mix of classic and cheeky decor. Wonderful staff, view, rooms, lounging areas, and grounds. Dinner and breakfast were great.
