I needed a place to stay for a night somewhere near Cork and Denis' home was just perfect. I arrived late at night so I can't comment about the local amenities around town but there is a Centre and a pharmacy just directly opposite the house if you need emergency supplies.
The home is lovely and so was Denis who made our trip very memorable with his excellent hospitality and good humour. He has animals around the house but they're all well behaved and so adorable. He has a very nice garden as well with plenty of roses for you to smell and see.
I would say if you are a family of 3, doing a roadtrip around Ireland and need a place to stay around Cork, Denis is your man.
