If you’re looking for 5* luxury in Cork city centre then look no further. Kenneth’s place is amazing - it is spacious, impeccably decorated, spotless, very central yet quiet and peaceful, and fully stocked with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. A bottle of rioja and fresh brown bread on arrival are an added bonus best enjoyed on the sunny terrace with panoramic views of Cork city. Cafes, pubs, local shops, the Everyman theatre and excellent restaurants - Isaac’s, Greene’s, the cask, son of a bun - are literally within a 5 minute walk of the front door.
Two things to keep in mind: on street parking is free overnight but a disc system is in place during the day (all day car park is just down the street though). Also, the house is up a very steep hill - a feature of Cork’s north side. While I found it reasonable to go up pushing a large buggy and my in-laws (both in their late 60s) were able for it a couple of times a day, someone with more limited mobility may struggle.
Overall, this place is nothing short of perfect and we will not consider anywhere else for our next visit to the rebel county.
