Guest reviews
Heart of Kinsale averages 4.5 out of 5 across 18 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
We shared this house as a family of 5, and it was perfect!! It was three stories. Had great heating, WiFi, parking, a great view a well appointed kitchen, washer & dryer(!), and most importantly just so much space, multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. Walking distance to everything in Kinsale (it's pretty small). Walked to dinner at Dino's Seafood and it was delicious. The host was timely, friendly, and helpful.
The bedroom on the ground floor was soooo bad that we had to move to a nearby b & b. I can not understand anybody giving this property 5 stars! We ended up having to pay twice for our three days in Kinsale!!👎👎👎
