In all my years I have never seen a more beautiful view than from the front of this house! Just wow! This is my first B&B in Ireland so I cannot compare but the accommodations were roomy, welcoming and wonderful!

This 5-star B&B is located 4 kilometers outside of Kinsale overlooking a beautiful inlet river. We stayed two nights and can't rave enough about it! The price of the room was very competitive, has American and European outlets for charging the technology, and was renovated a couple of years ago so the rooms are perfect including a bathtub/shower, and marble...

We just spent a perfect evening with Claire and Martin in the most amazing B&B. beautifully decorated throughout, spacious, immaculately clean and a wonderful breakfast. In their recent remodel, they really considered everything for their guests. There is even an American power outlet in each room -what a great touch! Kinsale is a great little village, but it's busy.

The room and bathroom were large, there was a nice view from the front of the house. Friendly hosts. Unfortunately cash only and not a safe walk to the town. Good Irish breakfast, but the porridge recipe can remain a secret. Make sure you eat dinner at Fishy Fishy at least once - you will need to book though.

We stayed two night with Claire at her beautiful Bed and Breakfast. Claire is such a gracious and pleasant hostess, making us feel right a t home the moment she opened the door. Nothing pretentious about Claire; open and friendly, as if we had known her for years. Rivermount is superbly decorated and the view out the front is fabulous.... More

Stayed 2 nights. Lovely home with wonderful breakfast. Had the pancakes both mornings. Very warm and inviting. You feel like your part of the family. They gave excellent suggestions as to how to spend our days to see the most of county cork. Came home both evenings to a nice warm fire. Hated to leave the view.

Two of my friends and I just had a wonderful weekend in Kinsale at Rivermount House. This B&B is very luxurious and is more akin to a hotel in my opinion. The interior design is gorgeous and the rooms were very warm and inviting on what was a cold and windy day outside. The owners are very welcoming and accommodating.The... More

My two friends and I recently stayed at this cute, fashionable B&B in Kinsale, and I'm so glad it turned out to be such a deal! The owners are darling, and the pancakes were delicious in the morning!

Rivermount House was an absolute favorite of ours in Ireland. The town of Kinsale is a great place to visit... and Rivermount the perfect place to stay. The property is immaculate. Rooms are very comfortable, large bathrooms with nice amenities, breakfast is spot on (cooked to order and all of the requisite continental items). Claire and her husband are wonderful... More

The location of Rivermount House is a bit outside of Kinsale, but it more than makes up for it with its view of the bay and surrounding countryside. Breakfast was delicious and the proprietors (though they were out when we arrived) were friendly and helpful in the morning. We really enjoyed our stay.
