About this property

Our house in the middle of the street

Our house has recently gone through a complete transformation and yet maintaining all original features. Recently refurbished to high standard, our house now has the "Waouh" factor and you will enjoy a great stay not only in the house, but also enjoying the views to the harbour and the cathedral. In the early mornings and late afternoons , you can enjoy the liners arriving and departing from the port below, while you enjoy your morning coffee or in the evening perhaps a glass of wine.
Situated in the middle of this picturesque street, West View, is one of the 23 houses built in the late 1850's and designed by Queen Victoria's Architect.
The house is on 3 levels and features:
- 4 bedrooms including one on the ground floor;
- Two traditional style bathrooms with a stand-alone bath, a separate shower, a wash basin and toilets;
- A very spacious and full of light modern kitchen with a large table;
- A separate dining room/ living-room;
- A downstairs shower-room with wash-basin, shower and toilets;
The house has everything you wish for a relaxing stay and has all the equipment to make your stay even more comfortable: tea & coffee provided washing machine, bed linen and towels, and high speed WiFi.

Spending 4-5 nights or a full week in the house is ideal as not only will you enjoy fully the house and relax there, but also you will make the most of what Cobh and the area has to offer to you. You can easily spend one day in Cobh, visiting the Cathedral, the Heritage Centre, the Titanic Museum and walking the Titanic trail. On another day, you can visit Cork city, just 25mn away by train (the train station is situated less than 10mn walk from the house), or in Fota Island (The Gardens, the Zoo or a day at the golf!). From Cobh, you can also have day-trips to Ballycotton (walking along the cliffs, visiting the Stephen Pearce Pottery (and having a nice piece of cake from their cafe), visiting the Jameson factory in Midleton, kissing the Blarney stone in Blarney Castle, and you can also in a day drive to Killarney and come back to the house!

There is so much to do in the area, and don’t forget to enjoy the great food and atmosphere in the local restaurants, and of course enjoying a nice pint in one of the local pubs!

The house was in a brilliant location, we had a wedding locally, however the accommodation was not up to standard. One bedroom was actually the front room divided by a curtain. The downstairs shower fluctuated from burning to freezing. We wish we took our own towels and bedding. Master bedroom bed sunk in the middle. Cheap nylon curtains. No wardrobes to put clothes away or bedside cabinets. Carpet on the stairs was stapled. GO TO IKEA! Over all very disappointing and could easily be so much nicer.

Great location
The house was ideally located in the picturesque Cobh with stunning views and there was a great buzz around the place. I would 100% recommend a stay here for location and accommodation.

Great stay - delighted we booked this place!
If you are looking to stay in Victorian surroundings, it doesn’t get much better than this! Beautiful views to the harbour, moments away from where the Titanic once docked, we had the most comfortable sleep as we take it the beds were brand new along with the mattresses! Great to stay in a place for a large group such as ours, as we had access to 2 fully equipped bathrooms (great walk-in shower facilities). Wished we had stayed longer to enjoy the bath! The photos of the kitchen demonstrate exactly what it is: beautiful, great for dining! Thank you again Carole for your communication, c’est la vie!

Everything we imagined!
And more! What a beautiful and fantastic Victorian renovation! This house is indeed a credit to the host. As a party of 6 people, we had more than enough space in the huge double bedrooms and the main bathroom to die for on the first floor. Most of our socialising was done in the most tasteful kitchen that one could wish to dine in. We have to say Thank you, especially for the goodies on arrival! As the song title goes, if we ever pass this way again xxx

Why they chose this property

We have put a lot of energy and heart in the renovation of this property. We have tried to keep a great balance between the traditional features (fireplaces, high ceilings, architraves, original timber floor) and modern living. We are especially proud of the bathroom with its stand-alone bath, the kitchen with the velux and modern equipment!
We hope you will enjoy it too!

What makes this property unique

We believe the combination of original features and modern design is what makes the house unique. Indeed, because it is in the middle of the hill, you get a lot of sunlight, and you have a great views of the Harbour and of the Cathedral from nearly every windows!
