We came across this fabulous B&B purely by chance and couldn't of been more impressed. We had drove down to Kinsale by way of Dublin without any reservations for the night. I quickly looked up places on tripadvisor and the Blue Horizon looked nice. We arrived pretty late after a short dirty road drive outside the town. Mary the proprietor... More

Sept. 2012: This was my first time trying a self catering apartment and it was wonderful! The apartment was clean, cozy, and there was plenty of room for my friend and I. The owner, Mary, and her son did some quick switching around to make it from a one bedroom to a two bedroom for us and we still had... More

Jimmy and Mary were wonderful hosts of this beautiful sea side bead and breakfast near The Old Head area of Kinsale. We had beautiful weather with sunny skies so we were able to take advantage of the spectacular Atlantic Ocean views from their place. Breakfast was in the pub each morning with Jimmy and Mary giving us great travel information... More

Oct 2012: This was by far the favorite of our two week stay, no comparison. The rooms were lovely, the beds are soft and sooo comfy. I was lucky enough to have a jacuzzi tub. I sunk right in and all the soreness of our long trip melted away. TIP: Do not empty the whole vile of bubble bath into... More

We had a room with a little patio looking over the pasture to the ocean. It was quite lovely. This place is removed from the bustle of Kinsale. If you want the quaintness of the town, don't stay here. If you want a lovely view and a GREAT beach a short walk downhill, this is the place. You can get... More

My husband and I stayed at the Blue Horizon during July 2012. We were delayed on our trip so arrived a bit late but Jim and his daughter Alice were there to give us a warm welcome. Mary and Jim made us feel at home and there was a lovely relaxed feel to the B&B, the breakfasts were delicious.The room... More

The best thing about the Blue Horizon is just that, the water close by fills the view, and it's location by the sea. It is a nice rural Irish place to stay on a B&B vacation trip. Friendly people running the place. Good food and bar on site, and other eating choices within a short drive.

We really enjoyed the B&B and the town of Kinsale. The best part was walking down to the end of the property to find beautiful cliffs. We walked along the cliffs in the evening ...was amazed to be the only people out there. The room was updated and had nice views of the ocean.
