Mark's cottage is so lovely I wish I could take it home with me, view included! He has done a wonderful job making it feel very cozy and comfy and adding his own personal touches. The floor plan also allowed for privacy between our adult son's bedroom & bathroom and ours. Mark sent a very detailed message regarding check-in. He was there to meet us when we arrived and explained everything we needed to know. There were delicious scones and beautiful fresh flowers awaiting us. Two highly-rated restaurants are a 1-minute walk from the cottage. Mark provides free parking for tenants, a big plus. We were able to walk into town every day - a quick 7 minutes. We also did the Scilly Walk, a beautiful rolling path along the harbor and a nice way to reach the impressive Charles Fort (that part is a bit steeper). We rarely stay in the same place twice but if we return to Kinsale, we will definitely be staying at Mark's cottage!

Friendly host Mark greeted us, so welcoming. Scones were a lovely treat that we very much enjoyed. Accommodations were spotless and had every amenity and more for our stay. Location was perfect! A stones throw to the amazing Spaniard Inn and pub (such fun, amazing food and drinks) and an enjoyable short stroll to everything. Highly recommend this property, we will be back!

Mark and Diane have created a very warm, friendly and inviting home to enjoy while you are travelling and exploring. Everything is clean and tidy and fully stocked for your comfort and enjoyment. Nice and central to the town. A cozy pub (Spaniard) and a gourmet restaurant (Man Friday) is walking distance. We would stay there again.
