I cannot sing high enough praises for Cloughjordan House!!! I broke my ankle while on holiday, and…read morewhen I finally made it out to the wedding, they made my life so much easier. Not only did they lend me better crutches with padding, they also allowed me to use the golf buggy to get myself around the property. On top of that, one of their cooks, Chelle, is also a nurse and she bandaged up my hand a couple times during my stay. Broken ankle aside, Cloughjordan House is absolutely stunning! The grounds were incredible and the lodgings were adorable. The minute you enter the gates, your breath will be taken away by the beautiful scenery; and the minute you leave, you'll miss the serenity of the surroundings. I will 100% be returning, hopefully with two working ankles this time.

Olive is an extremely welcoming person, getting us settled on arrival with a pot of tea and some…read morebiscuits. So appreciated after a full day of travel from Canada. Once settled her restaurant, pub and sightseeing tips were first rate. Bed was very comfortable and house was quiet (although we were travelling during the off season). Having your own bathroom and shower is great as well. The breakfasts were top notch and ample, a light lunch at most was needed between breakfast and dinner. Central location also makes it attractive to those who like their amenities close by. Should we ever get back to Cork we would return here to stay.

I found Auburn House in Lonely Planet's Ireland book and I'm so glad we did! Olive and Kieran were…read moreby far our favorite B&B hosts throughout our tour of Ireland. Upon arriving, Olive was warm, welcoming, and took care of us with a pot of tea and chocolates and a friendly disposition that made us feel as if we were her old friends just popping by for a visit rather than strangers meeting for the first time. She had plenty of stories to share and wisdom on where to go and what to see while in Cork (and the appropriate maps to guide us in the right direction). Our room was cozy with a reasonably sized bathroom (by Irish standards) and a sweeping view over the city. The breakfast was prompt and piping hot - my husband raved about the black and white pudding, while I stuck to scrambled eggs, beans, and toast. Plus, the B&B is located a comfortable walking distance from the bus terminal and train station. I'd recommend Auburn House to any out of town visitors looking for the full B&B experience.

Wonderful wonderful home with superb service and home-cooked breakfast!

Our amazing hosts then packaged it up (along with a book we left behind) and shipped it off to another BnB on our itinerary no questions asked! I will stay there again if I'm ever near Cork again. Thanks for being so great at what you do!
