When I first reserved my 1-night booking with Declan and Marie, Declan noted that most visitors end up wishing they had spent more time in Cork. I can confirm that we lamented leaving after just one night. This is in no small part to the warmth and hospitality of Declan and Marie. My mom & I loved our too short stay in their beautiful home—from waking up to the soothing sound of rain falling on the rooftop and snuggling back to sleep in the comfortable bed, to enjoying a stroll in their beautiful gardens, to my immense relief that we could drive to their home on the outskirts of town and avoid city traffic and parking. Marie's baked goods were fantastic and Declan kindly drove us into town twice during our stay. We were so grateful for the hospitality and envy the travelers who have yet to visit Cork and stay with these lovely people.
