    You can't ask for a more gracious and lovely hostess. What a gem! The rooms were amazing with private bathrooms - the views were lovely - quiet and peaceful - and a full Irish breakfast with tea, coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice, and hot chocolate with real whipped cream - just divine!

    The owners and the staff were very welcoming, the place was beautiful and comfortable. The breakfast was tasty. The attention to detail in the rooms was spot on. Trish who helped at the property was a breath of fresh air, so helpful and just lovely to interact with.

    The Maratha House is beautiful with a lovely property you can take a nice walk around. Marantha was delightful and such a great host. The home is just wonderful. We stayed in the Regal suite and it was amazing. Her breakfast was amazing, fruits with fresh cream, yogurts and all types of granolas, with bacon and eggs. She goes all out. Locations is very close to the Blarney castle.

    Thank you, Olwen, for your wonderful hospitality! We loved our stay in the spacious family room, charmingly decorated with hats and dancing-themed touches. It was peaceful and quiet, and the beautiful hall and staircase leading to the second floor are truly stunning. The house is full of character and history — a real treasure!

    Nothing to improve on.. Perfect as it is.

    Beautiful house and garden. House is a mansion by most standards. Paintings and decorations look like they belong in a museum. Breakfast was top notch, plenty of choices. Beautiful property, very quiet, but close to Blarney castle

    I was honestly so charmed by the property that I didn’t even focus on any flaws. Everything about the stay felt special and full of character. One small thing I noticed was that the kettle had a very short lead, so I had to place it on the floor to boil water. But really, that was just a minor detail and didn’t take away from the overall experience at all.

    I arrived after 10pm due to late hours at work, and the kind gentleman Douglas was there waiting for me. He warmly welcomed me and showed me to the beautiful room. I have to say, the whole experience was an amazing surprise. The rate was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of the stay. The decor is kept in a well-preserved Victorian style, full of charm and character—it’s always a real treat to stay in a property like this. The service and staff were exceptionally nice—so kind and thoughtful. Nothing was ever too much trouble. They anticipated my needs before I even had to ask. For example, they refilled my water bottle for me without me saying a word, even though I was happy to do it myself. It’s just a pity I couldn’t stay longer and explore more of the house and garden. I’ll definitely be back!

    Everything was great, no issues.

    Exceptional hosts and great location, with Blarney Castle just up the road, and Cork a short drive away. The breakfast was exceptional with a great assortment of delicacies. Definitely the best B&B breakfast we experienced in Ireland.
