We had a brilliant time, four adults, a toddler, a pre-teen and three teenagers. The house accommodated us all easily and its location is ideal. The house itself feels not like a holiday rental but a home. We cooked every night in the spacious and well equipped kitchen. Evenings in front of the fire were the perfect wind down from a hectic christmas. We will be back! P.S. We cant't sign off without mentioning that Nora, who manages the property, was the perfect hostess, we felt welcome and looked after prior to our arrival and during.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children.
Owner response: Thank you for your gracious review. We are lucky to have Nora to keep the home warm and alive while we are away. Come back soon!

We visited Ireland for the first time at the beginning of august 2012. With two childrens and one baby Rosscarberry and Kenny Gronningsater' house were a very good choice! The house is clean and confortable according to the description. The location is very well to visit the south of cork County (Mizeen head, cork...). For kids, it takes two minutes to go the beach. Restaurants and shops are close. Owner living in NY, the local manager, Nora, is very welcoming and help us for installation. Do not hesitate to come here! Everything is done for wonderful and unforgetable hollidays!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, families with young children.
Owner response: Dear Laurent, Many thanks for your review and we especially appreciate that your kids were safe and engaged so you could relax! Best, Kenny Gronningsater Sile Carroll

My 12th year in a row coming to Rosscarbery, but our first visit to the beautiful house. Just spend a wonderful week in this beautiful property with a party of 11 family members. The house was amazing, plenty of room for all of us, great location and fantastic help from Nora, the lady who can do anything!!!!!! I would highly recommend this house for larger family groups, loads of space, fantastically well equiped kitchen, which will impress the most experienced chefs. A fabulous location in the most beautiful part of West Cork. I would highly recommend this property.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children.
Owner response: Thank you, Jackie, for your review and we are thrilled you enjoyed the house as much as we do. We hope you visit again. All the best, Kenny Gronningsater Sile Carroll

The house was wonderful. Bright, open and everything was in great condition. No problems with anything. Very peaceful and quiet. Great view! The caretaker was a real asset. Helped us find a lot of sites not listed in the guidebook. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and I would recommend this house to anyone. It was a great place to come back to every night. I'm just sorry we didn't have more time to spend there. There were 5 people in our group and there was plenty of room for all of us.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, families with young children.
