We spent 10 days driving the coast of Ireland, staying in B&B's. They were all terrific - that being said, this was our favorite! You can walk to any destination in town with no major climbing. The family that owns and operates this wonderful property are adorable, gracious and helpful. The breakfast was delectable, the best of our trip. We... More

We stayed in room 5 and were glad we did, even though you have to walk up all the stairs. The room looks out over the town roofs and all the way into the harbor. Proprietor was very helpful and the breakfast was excellent. My wife and I both liked Kinsale a lot. Very quaint and we met nice talkative... More

We were planning on staying somewhere else nearby, but when we walked by The Old Presbytery, we thought we'd look into it, since it was the only place around with off street parking. We spoke with Noreen, who showed us a lovely ground floor room (good for us as we have some walking/climbing challenges) at 95 Euro. We took it... More

Everything about this B&B is top notch. Noreen and Phillip are perfect hosts and go out of their way to assist you. We arrived very tired after an all night flight and the drive from Shannon to Kinsale. Our rooms were not quite ready so they told the girls to speed it up so we could get some rest. A... More

On a two-week trip through Ireland, The Old Presbytery was a definite highlight. My group of four was greeted by Noreen at the front desk, and she shared great information about recommended restaurants and pubs in Kinsale. Throughout our stay, Noreen and her husband were the perfect balance of charming/friendly without being overbearing. The care and detail that they put... More

We enjoyed our stay at the Kinsale Old Presbytery B & B so much that we decided to stay another night. The central location was just a 2 minute walk from charming old town Kinsale. Our first floor room was very roomy and comfortable. It was nicely decorated with antiques and art, but most important it had a very comfortable... More

Noreen is the best host at a B&B that we have ever experienced. Our room was spacious and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable and the breakfast was top notch. If you are travelling to Kinsale, this is the place to stay Michael and Vanessa

We arrived at the Old Presbytery on a particularly cold and rainy day and walking into the place warmed us up inside and out. Beautifully decorated with a lot of old timey treasures, the Old Presbytery shows all the signs of being well-loved and cared for. Our room was very large with a small sitting area opening to a porch... More
