About this house rental
An elegant period house, on the waterfront in Monkstown, Cork. 20 minutes drive from Cork City and airport. Not quite "Sitting at the Dock of the Bay" but close. Chillax or not, that is the question ? Lovely leisurely local walks, on the Greenway old rail line, throw your canoe or paddle board over the wall (tidal). Perfect base for nearby attractions and activities, Fota Wildlife Park / House/ Adventure, Spike Island/ Fort Camden, Funkytown, cross river ferry to Cobh heritage town.
Built in 1842 retaining many original features.
Bright and airy, large rooms, high ceilings. The kitchen/ living room is in the basement with atmospheric log burning stove, lower ceiling here, access to split level back yard/garden/ back lane parking space.

William was a wonderful host. We arrived early and he accommodated us with no problems. One of the most impressive things about our host was how friendly and interested he was in us having a wonderful visit to Ireland. He supplied us with milk, bread, eggs, butter, coffee, and fruit. His rationale; “I know the last thing you want to have to do is shop for food for breakfast when you arrive. William was an exemplary host. Our experience wouldn’t have been as good without him.

William was terrific! He’s a very accommodating host! The house is beautiful and very comfortable. Easy access to Cork and Cobh. The Boson Restaurant down the street from the house is a great please for lunch and dinner, the staff are very friendly and the food delicious.

We had a great stay at Williams. We met William upon our arrival and he was welcoming and gave us great ideas for our stay. It was clean and well stocked to start our stay!! Great place to stay and convenient to get to to all the sites.

Beautiful period house. Just charming. be prepared for stairs over 4 levels. William was thoughtful and informative host. Only drawback (if there was one) was not much in walking distance-1 restaurant which had good food. Many things to do in nearby area. Recommend Fota Nature park , just exceptional "zoo"
