As a summary, I can only say that the stay in Richards Airbnb was brilliant! If you are traveling in a group, this is where you want to stay while visiting county cork.
The House
The house is very large and fully equipped with absolutely everything you need. It has a front and a backyard, beds are super comfy, the kitchen is large enough for 8 people - and so is the living room. Everything from bedsheets to towels, shampoo, coffee, tea, dishes, toaster, huge fridge with freezer, dishwasher … you get the picture. Its like being at home! Besides being super clean upon arrival, the house is so large that parts of a group can sleep upstairs while the others can stay awake in the living room without any issue. Loved it!
Location
Situated in the heart of Kinsale, the house is the optimal spot to explore county cork. There’s space for two cars, the neighbourhood is quiet, yet you can walk into the town centre within 10 min to go shopping or have drinks. In other words, great location.
Communication
Richard is very responsive - he might be out of town, but he’ll still get back to you super fast and you will then communicate with the neighbour regarding keys and such.
Check in and out
As Richard was out of town, the neighbour waited for our late arrival and gave us the key - super convenient! Check out was also flexible as the place wasn’t booked right after we left - though this might be different for your trip. Still good to know that it’s an easy process, right?
Anything else
The neighbours are great and will be able to help you with anything you need if Richard is not there. Do yourself a favour - go to aldi, grab a “postman’s leg” and give it to them! They’ll tell you a story and you can have a laugh :)
Many thanks to Richard and the neighbours for making our stay so lovely! Whenever there’s another opportunity, we will certainly book this place again.
