We offer a warm welcome to our lovely residence, with a cup of coffee or tea in the dining room.
Mostly we enjoy our patio on the back of the house with beautiful and relaxing view. We care very much about comfort so we are always improving facilities and rooms
Location is spot on! From Patrick Street turn left into Grand Parade and then right into Washington Street. Go straight ahead along Lancaster Quay and Western Road. Walking distance from the city centre is 12 minutes. University Cork College is across the street and few restaurants and bars are very close. Popular places to visit within walking distance are St Fin Barre's Cathedral, Elisabeth Fort and The English Market.
