The pictures do not do it justice. The house is perched on a hillside overlooking Cork. The entire view side of the house is made of glass, upstairs and down, creating a stunning living space and giving you a panoramic view of Cork from the entire upstairs. The house was built from the ground up using quality materials and workmanship. The large modern kitchen has everything you need. The master bedroom is spacious with a hotel quality comfortable bed. The second bedroom is smaller but equally comfortable. Both bathrooms are completely modern with large showers and a large bath in the master.
That said, the highlight of our stay was the hospitality and responsiveness from the owner Kenneth. He responded nearly immediately each time I needed to contact him. When the coffee maker malfunctioned, he had us a new one that same day. He gave us several excellent recommendations for dining in and around the Cork area. In general we were treated as we would be in a first class hotel.
The only caveat is the house is close to the top of a steep hill. We walked up that hill daily, but if you have a disability or are fat and lazy (like myself), you'll need to consider a 7 euro taxi ride to get up the hill if you don't have a car.
