The staff were brilliant and very accommodating. I needed a slightly later checkout time which they accommodated for me, they were helpful, friendly and kind. We spent some time at the bar where we met the owners of the hotel. They were lovely and we enjoyed chatting with them and finding out the history of this family run hotel. We would definitely recommend staying here. We especially enjoyed the singing Barman who kept us entertained with Elvis songs whilst serving us our drinks. It is in a beautiful location and they made my friends wedding all the more enjoyable
A great hotel set in own gardens. A view across Clonakilty when you arrive and leave. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choice.
Would highly recommend Fernhill House. Have stayed here multiple times and the staff go above and beyond to accommodate you. The food is lovely and the hotel itself is beautiful.

Location was great. Free parking. Elegant surroundings… room and gardens. Breakfast was fabulous. Good choices at restaurant for dinner. Lots of history and art to observe during stay … enjoyed everything!
We loved this location. It was for our wedding weekend. Stayed 2 nights. Staff were exceptional to all guests, not just the bride & groom. Beautiful venue & Gardens.
Hotel was a bit too hot.
Combining homeliness with luxury and spacious reception areas, this heritage property is beautiful. Gardens are tiered and exciting, with good SW facing decks overlooking themThere's a generosity to food; the bread platter and dips served to every table is fabulous.Morris prints, botanicals, art works and plants dress the interior and a live fire welcomes.
I liked everything, Irish toiletries incl. plus their own well water.
Beautiful hotel in a gorgeous part of Ireland. I told the receptionist that it was my special birthday and I got a lovely box of chocolates. They also offered us a complimentary drink. Very nice.
Extraordinary Country Estate in the hearth of West Cork.The rooms are big and spotless clean with comfortable beds.Great breakfast selection in a lovely setting and excellent dinner in the main restaurant.Very friendly staff, I will definitely be back again.
Nothing, everything was perfect
The breakfast selection was fantastic with a lovely table by the window. The evening meal was excellent. Very comfortable room.
No complaints.
I had a very good evening meal. Would have liked more fish choices but the goats cheese starter and duck main were both very nice.
I had the eggs benedict for breakfast which was a bit disappointing and the coffee a bit tart.
A lovely hotel with very helpful and friendly staff. Excellent food at dinner and breakfast.
Very friendly, helpful staff throughout. Very calm. Spacious & lovely location.
slight musty smell
