Patricia and Micheal met us at the house when we arrived and were so friendly and welcoming! It was so nice that they had some toys and books for our kids, and were so considerate to provide milk, yogurt, cereal, etc plus plenty of coffee supplies. Micheal kindly sent a long email after check-in with multiple recommendations for things in the area. The back garden is very nice and Timoleague is well situated to explore Kinsale and the nearby small villages. Tip: if you want to eat at Monk's Lane, make reservations ahead of time. We didn't and missed out.
