Our visit to Rock Cottage was one of our Best experiences in Ireland! It is the most charming and well kept B & B's with a beautiful landscape. It is clear that Barbara, the Home owner takes pride and joy in her surroundings and accommodating her guest. More

My boyfriend and I stayed here in June 2008. The place is an old converted manor/farmhouse, and all of the cottages on the grounds have been restored. The accommodation itself is VERY reasonable, cheap as chips you might say. Unlike other reviewers, we loved the owner. Fair enough she was a little grouchy, but we put it down to her... More

A beautiful house in an amazing setting. I had read reviews so knew what to expect about the owner. Whilst she has lived in Ireland for many years she still had a rather fierce streak to her and a rather odd cork/German accent. However, the room was small but nicely furnished but the bed and pillows were so uncomfortable I... More

This German hostess may be talented when it comes to meals though we only chose to have the breakfast. Unfortunately her general abrupt attitude in all areas made our stay uncomfortable. Not at all welcoming, and we had to fit in with her rather than the other way around. The hotel was clean and tidy, however sleeping on a plastic... More

The reviewer seemed to have misunderstood that this is not a hotel, but a B&B. A hotel works with a pool of staff at breakfast time. In a B&B breakfast is prepared and served single handedly by the owner. There is no buffet, but each dish is prepared freshly to order. Most B&B's offer a wide range of fresh juices... More

The scenery is unbelievable....catch the sunset from the hill behind the house. Maxie the Sheep dog is adorable, the cats, the dogs, the donkey, and the horse were as welcoming as the hostess. The hostess is German and if you have never been around Germans you might find her a little stand offish, but we found her pleasant and accomadating.... More

We stayed at Rock Cottage in May, 2003. Overall, it was a good experience. However, having stayed at the Fortview a couple of miles down the road the day before, it seemed to be second class.One difficulty is the limited check-in time which is only 4-6 pm. We had originally planned to tour Sheep's head peninsula that afternoon, however had... More

The reviewer would have been most welcome to drop off luggage and collect their keys in the morning ( even though we wouldn't have the room ready until later)and would then have been free to return at any time preferred. Between Fortview and here we operate this quite frequently. You only had to ask either Violet or myself. A B&B... More
