This is a beautiful house with lots of space. The kitchen is well appointed, with a washer and dryer in addition to a diswasher and large refrigeragor / freezer. The 4 bedrooms make it a great space for a larger family. It's a 15 - 20 minute walk to the city center, so it's close enough and yet far enough away to be quite and peaceful. We ended up arriving much later than we had originally expected, and really appreciated Carol's ability to meet us. The only "weird" thing about the house is having to pay for electricity usage - it was a bit unnerving wondering if the power was going to go out. We ended up topping off with 10 euro for the 4 of us for 2 days, and had no problems, although we did not run the heaters at all. We would definitely stay here again if we came back to Cork!
