Help! B&B around Kinsale
 
Our B&B hostess (Cephas House)just informed us that she can not accomodate us for 2 nights in late April as promised. We will spending the night before in Kenmare, had wanted 2 nights in/around Kinsale before heading to Kilkenny. Any suggestions on other B&B's in Kinsale or perhaps more quaint/less touristy areas in Cork?? Thanks!

Kilcaw House just outside of Kinsale is very nice. Hosts are hospitable; pretty scenery.

It was recommended to us by the Heatons who run a great guest house in Dingle.

Here's a second vote for Kilcaw House!
Henry and Christina are wonderful hosts.
The house is a little too far for walking (not good walking roads either) but just a 2 minute drive into Kinsale.

We stayed at a place in Kinsale called The Presbytere and liked it.

I liked Kilcaw House too!

O'Donovan's is super-comfy and right in the middle of town. Across the street is Mama Mia's pizza run by a nutty Italian immigrant name Pasquale. Two doors down is the Tap Tavern. Ghost Walk tours leave from their most nights -- a light, funny experience. Don Herlihy has an outstanding must-do historical walking tour of Kinsale.

I have stayed with the Mitchells at Kilcaw house and would recommend it to anyone.
