We stayed here for two nights. The home is tucked away on the hillside with wonderful views from some of the rooms. Kinsale is a charming town, not to be missed on a tour of Ireland. We took more photos there than anywhere else on our three-week trip. The B&B was a little too far out for us to walk... More

My wife and daughters and I had a wonderful stay at the Rocklands house in mid-July. Both rooms had beautiful views of the river and surrounding hills. It was a only a 10-15 minute walk from Kinsale center, yet the Inn is definitely in the peaceful countryside. The Innkeeper, John is a true gentleman and went out of his way... More

We loved staying at Rocklands House Bed and Breakfast during our visit to Kinsale. The charming home overlooks the harbor and is clean and beautiful. The hosts were very hospitable, the food was delicious, the rooms were clean, views were spectacular, and it was very quiet. The home is a slight distance from the town of Kinsale but not far...

Nice rooms: ours was quiet, small triple with very nice view. Great location & property. 10 minute walk to town with beautiful views of Kinsale Harbor and the Forts along the way. Good breakfast with wonderful view. We'd go back in a heartbeat. More

My wife and I had stumbled across the Rocklands House through a simple google search and so glad that we did. We had a room with a king size bed and a balcony overlooking the river and surrounding hills. It was a 10 minute walk from the town's center and a perfect location to mix the liveliness of a quaint... More

John was wonderful and the food was great. The bed and pillows make me want to go back. One from our party was sick and John even made an appointment for us at the local clinic. I would recomend this to anyone. More

Had a wonderful stay at this B&B. The drive up the hill was a bit challenging at first, but the view was well worth it. Hosts and breakfasts were wonderful. The rooms were very clean and well decorated. Comfortable beds, and a great shower! The golden retreivers were also a great touch that made us feel right at home. This... More

We had a lovely stay at the Rocklands House. It was a bit tricky to get to - especially on our first day of navigating the roads of Ireland. Clean, roomy, great breakfast, friendly hosts. More

Lovely house, but a bit difficult to find - high up on a hill just above the town of Kinsale. Make sure to follow the directions exactly or you'll end up driving out the other side of town by mistake, or going up the wrong hill and having no way to turn around! The driveway is sort of long and... More
