We had a wonderful experience. The structure is amazing and the views are spectacular.Be prepared with all your provisions before you arrive and be prepared to climb some "delightfully precarious" stairs to the bedroom.This is a once in a lifetime vacation spot and we will always remember it fondly.

Four of us (all adults) stayed here for a week in June/July and it was a very special experience. Stephanie's renovation and design work on the property is impressive, and with the exception of a full-sized oven and laundry facilities, you have everything you need there to be comfortable. The castle is beautifully situated high above Roaringwater Bay, and it's an easy drive to all sorts of wonderful West Cork sites. The stairs are tricky, so it's not really a place for kids or anyone with physical challenges, but otherwise I would very highly recommend this to any adventurous travellers looking for a unique stay.

Host was easy to communicate with and property was very unique. Surrounding area was beautiful and the ocean views were spectacular. Only note was that the hot tub mentioned in the listing is no longer available.

Very cool place to stay. Nicely renovated. So unique! The interior stairs were original, and somewhat of a challenge as they are very steep and each step is very tall, but that is the nature of a castle, and we made do. Location is lovely and we are very glad we were able to experience this remarkable castle.

A once in lifetime opportunity to stay in a restored tower! The views were incredible and it was an experience we will never forget. Must be good at navigating steep and numerous stairs. We were comfortable and warm considering it's a stone castle, as the floor heating was nice.

My family and friends loved loved loved our 8 day stay at this 500 year old castle. It’s not a place for everyone but if you like getting the feel for what life was like back in the day, then this is the place for you. The view is magnificent and luckily the weather was gorgeous our whole time so we could enjoy the views.Yes, it’s a little less than sparkling clean but where else can one hear birds roosting in the walls? It’s rustic and the stairs up to the top stretch one’s legs.Stephanie our hostess was great and responded immediately with a couple of our questions.County Cork and the local Irish were part of this great experience and vacation of course.A

Living even for a short time in a castle is a unique experience. It is just rustic enough to get a feel for castle life and just modern enough to make it comfortable. The grounds are lush and the area is quiet. Otters were on the rocks down by the water at the bottom of the stairs at waters edge. The top floor has an amazing view with lots of glass and a sheltered patio. We had some concerns, but Stephanie was quick to respond. My only criticism would be the bed on middle floor was uncomfortable, it is a futon and I’m sure furnishing a castle must be a challenge. The wifi was perfect.

Absolutely wonderful stay

Staying in the lovely place may not be for everyone, it is an older place, keep that in mind. Seeing that however, the home and property are absolutely gorgeous and worth the stay. I definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking to make a good memory.

Amazing Castle Experience

We loved everything about our stay in the Rincolisky Castle. It was the perfect base location for our travels around Ireland. Made our 30th wedding anniversary very special.

Amazing castle of your own

This was an amazing property! It was amazing to travel to Ireland and be able to stay in a castle and enjoy the history while enjoying the modern touches. It was everything we wished for and more. The added touches of a link with directions as well as the firewood to burn a fire at night was magical! We will definitely stay here again!

Cool experience in a castle.

We enjoyed our stay a lot. Beautiful area to explore. Would recommend this rental in the summer for sure. There is barely any heating so we spent a ton of money on firewood and we were still cold. Otherwise a good experience and loved the sauna.

Beautiful location

We absolutely loved our stay here! The stairs are definitely not for the faint of heart, but this was a once in a lifetime experience and we loved every second of it! The bay is absolutely stunning and you just can’t beat the views. The castle is just outside of town, far enough away to feel remote but close enough that we could go grab lunch and explore the cute shops! Highly suggest a stay here, just remember it’s a 500 year old building, not a fancy hotel.

Amazing views and great rustic experience

We had such a great time staying at this amazing historical site. Stephanie was very communicative and helpful with instructions and recommendations. This castle really immerses you in the history of the location. I picked this location for the amazing views and the unique experience. If you want history and beauty this is your place. If you want 5 star hotel with fancy accommodations this is not your place. But it definitely got 5 stars from me.
