John was a perfect host who made sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. He took the time to show us around Kinsale town, and made excellent recommendations for dinner. The breakfast was excellent, especially the salmon which was the best we have had anywhere! It was our first time in Ireland, and we would definitely stay at Rocklands.

This was our second stay at Rocklands and we will certainly return again soon. John is a wonderful host and his breakfasts are legendary! The house overlooks the beautiful harbour and you are just a short, healthy walk from the bustling town of Kinsale. We cannot recommend it more, you will be welcomed warmly here.

John Bateman gave us a really great experience of Irish hospitality and we enjoyed our four day stay there. The views from from Rocklands house and garden of the harbour were magnificent. We have fond memories of a really super place and would return to Kinsale and hope to stay again at Rocklands.

What a fabulous place to stay, far enough away from the bustle of Kinsale town centre, but within easy walking distance and a view that cannot be beaten. The garden is just delightful. John was an excellent host, nothing was too much trouble, even offering us a lift into town. Ths is a very well run operation, with much thought and experience to ensure a first class stay. Our room was lovely, clean and fesh, with a sensational view over the river and town. The large lounge/dining area was bright and airy and there was a wide selection of interesting books for guests to read. All in all a perfect stay, thank you John.
