Everything exceptional. Love the attention to detail of the property and service. The bedrooms were lovely and the property included beautiful common areas to enjoy. Breakfast inclusive and delicious.

Incredible stay ! Mossie's was an enchanting location: water view, surrounded by mossy forest & quiet. Matti is a wonderful host, who ensured we had a 5-star stay, and made us feel right at home. The house is meticulously curated, feeling both very chic and comfortable, the amenities are wonderful (sauna, library, drinks lounge, fire pit, etc). Breakfast is absolutely delicious too ! We had a lovely romantic night during our roadtrip, will be recommending !

There was nothing we didn’t like.

Mossie’s is incredible! Photos don’t do it justice—the grounds, views, rooms and peacefulness made for an unforgettable few days. Peaceful in every way.

Breakfast was so good and freshly cooked .Mattie was an excellent host. Beds were very comfortable and the place had a relaxing and peaceful ambience with a lovely garden and wooded area .If time had permitted we would have used the Sauna .

The only negative is that it is a little remote and the only dinner options are in Castletownbere or Glengarriff, which isn’t the end of world but worth knowing.

The perfect location for our babymoon in west cork. The house is absolutely stunning, with every detail well thought through. The host Mattie is super helpful and very quick to respond. The breakfast was delicious and super filling. The gardens are breathtakingly beautiful, both mornings there were rabbits playing on the grass. There is a pond around the back of the property that you can swim in.

Nothing - Mossie's is perfect

The room and food was incredible - I am a returning customer to Mossie's and I will be back again. This is a hidden gem!

One of the books in the living room of this beautiful b&b had the title 'The art of creating home'. That's exactly what Matti and Vanessa do. Every detail is well thought through: the candles and fire place upon arrival, handmade soap in the bedroom, free quality coffee and tea, classical music... The beautiful building, garden, sauna, wonderfull rooms and perfect beds, the delicious breakfast and evening plate (which is definitely enough as dinner), the hospitality of Matti and Vanessa: it all makes you feel completely welcome and relaxed. Thank you for everything!

All was great!

The cottage is a real gem, everything done to a detail and high spec. The locations is perfect for a ring of Beara, secluded yet actually super close to the main road. Mati is a great host!

Our stay at Mossie’s was absolutely delightful. The attention to detail in restoration and design as well as the careful curation of rooms and beautiful spaces was swoon worthy. The hospitality shown by Matti and Vanessa was impressively present without being overbearing. The breakfast and the evening ‘board’ were delicious and beautifully presented. The fresh flowers throughout, the lit fireplace, the gorgeous grounds- all made us so sad to leave but grateful for the memories.

Our stay was too short! Need 3 or 4 nights to enjoy and explore the area

Nothing - everything was fantastic!

We were met on arrival by Matti who was so friendly and made us feel so welcome, especially after a long day travelling. The location had fabulous views and the house was beautiful and spacious with plenty of common areas so you could mingle with the other guests if you wanted to or find a quiet space for yourselves. Food was exceptional and we had dinner and breakfast here so thanks to Vanessa for looking after us! Matti made some suggestions for our trip and we ended up following his ideas instead of our planned trip so thank you Matti, you really know your stuff!

Staying at Mossie's has spoiled us; nothing else has even come close in comparison. It doesn't hurt that this jewel is situated in one of the more wildly beautiful corners of the world but photos do not do this B&B justice. In addition to the gorgeously appointed interiors, the grounds are magnificent: amazing attention to detail everywhere you look, both inside and out. As well, the service was exceptional: every possible need anticipated, Matti would quietly appear with a smile, when needed, and disappear just as quickly. The breakfasts were five-star: incredibly delicious, and impeccably served, in a glassed-in conservatory. We stayed in the lovely French Room, with a view of the ocean and lush surroundings, and with bed linens that make me tear up at the memory: the highest quality I've ever experienced. Matti and Vanessa have worked hard to create this magical Eden on the Beara Peninsula, and we're fortunate to be the beneficiaries of their vision, dedication, and love. We will absolutely come back!

Matti and Vanessa are very accommodating. They always make sure that guests are comfortable. The location is perfect because it is on a secluded area plus a stunning view. And the breakfast, it's the best.

Our stay here was everything we wanted it to be. The thoughtful design, the effortless but incredible service, amazing breakfast, stunning setting. Wonderful!

Just perfect! Mattie and Vanessa run a lovely B&B in rural Ireland. As a young couple from the big city on a short trip through southwest Ireland, it was a wonderful—and truly beautiful—escape from the everyday hustle. Extra points for the delicious breakfast! The Ring of Beara is also spectacular to explore. Thank you! —Chris & Anna
