    Had an awesome one-night stay in this cool converted grain silo. It was super cozy and clean, with a toilet, small kitchen, and a comfy bed. Loved the peaceful vibe, especially with the view, Perfect chill spot

    We had a fantastic stay at Chestnut View. The water tank has been wonderfully converted into a relaxing space that has everything you need to relax in the Irish countryside. The photos don't do it justice - we stayed for 1 night and our only regret was that we didn't book for longer! The shower was great. We loved looking out to the Chestnut tree and cows outside. The space was spotless and the hosts had left kindly homegrown strawbs and milk in the fridge for our arrival. It's located close to many attractions - the hosts had a list of local recommendations which was helpful for us exploring the area! Definitely recommend a stay of at least 2 nights here. Thanks once again for a fantastic stay.

    Very quiet remote location overlooking fields. Nice to have our own space after 2 weeks of BnB’s! Looks small from the outside but actually had everything you needed inside and didn’t feel cramped.

    Breakfast?? Was I supposed to get breakfast? I didn’t realise. There was tea and coffee and a pint of milk. Does that count? The place was very clean and nice to arrive at, though.

    Quirky but smart accommodation with everything one would need to have a restful stay. The only thing we couldn't figure out is how to turn on the hot plate. Tge owner is very responsive and tries to be helpful. The singing of the birds made my morning. Bucolic setting and nice views from the French door. We had a relaxing stay. Thank you

    There is nothing not to like. Of course it’s a bit out of the most touristic way but that adds to the charm.

    What a cool place this turned out to be: we were hesitant at first due to the non-traditional nature of the facility, but we were pleasantly surprised. A fantastic idea, with modern furniture. It is basically a spotlessly clean, fully equipped studio apartment in the middle of Cork green country.

    We had a great stay, the view is incredible and the tiny house is perfect for two. It was a change from the hostels we usually stay in ! It was pouring rain when we got there and the host kindly gave us a lift to the accomodation. Just perfect overall !!

    It rained heavily and because its roof was corrugated iron it kept us awake, it was very small, instructions on using hob would have been helpful and we arrived hungry! A can opener would have been helpful too. Didn’t see any staff which we prefer any communication was via message and good. Couldn’t get heater on so bit cold ! Would be concerned how hot it got in hot weather !

    Unusual little house looking out to cow fields made of corrugated iron.
