Meet your host…

Chris & Claire Gotto

Chris and Claire inherited the house from his parents and are gradually making it their own. Chris ran the family farm next door until his son was ready to take over, while Claire has a background in history and is an avid gardener. You'll usually find her outdoors and him in the kitchen. They love having guests and will happily ply you with tea and coffee while they talk you through all County Cork has to offer.

Set in the lush rolling countryside this Georgian country house was built in 1791 and has distinct authentic charm. Willowhill House Bed & Breakfast is only 20 minutes from Cork Airport and 30 minutes from Kinsale along the Wild Atlantic Way.
Whether it’s golfing, sailing, kayaking, whale or bird watching, horse riding, photography, sightseeing, surfing, diving, archaeological tours, whiskey tasting or genealogy, Willowhill House Bed & Breakfast is an ideal base.

There is a selection of gastro pubs, which serve food within a 15 minute drive and Kinsale, the gourmet capital of Ireland, is a 30 minute drive away.

The walled garden beckons one to stroll around and explore its treasures, perennial beds, roses, fruit trees, vegetables, many birds and its old dove cote.

The sitting room and conservatory are available to plan the next adventure in the countryside or on the dramatic coastline. It is a place to bring books and unwind.

We had a wonderful stay with Claire and Chris. Just as other reviews mentioned all the helpful tips on traveling, wonderful breakfasts and a most beautiful location. It's everything you ever thought that Ireland would be.

Claire and Chris were wonderful hosts, always with great tips for sightseeing and restaurants, and they manage to get their guests talking to each other. The house itself is a magical place, the large garden so beautiful. In our tour of Ireland, this was the accommodation with the biggest wow effect. Thank you!!

Jolie maison de famille agrémentée d'un superbe jardin. Cadre calme. Nous avons logé au 2ème étage, sous les toits, dans une chambre un peu vieillotte dont les fenêtres ne fermaient pas et une salle d'eau très petite. Excepté ces légers désagréments, Claire et Chris sont de charmants hôtes, disponibles, ayant de bonnes adresses à vous indiquer. Le petit-déjeuner est très copieux. Il y a également du fromage français. Le pub situé à 2km est une bonne adresse. Une halte agréable pour visiter Cork, Cobh et Kingsale.

What a cosy and comfortable place. The historical country house with the antique furniture and paintings was so unique . Claire and Chris were the warmest hosts you can imagine. We loved the garden and the breakfast. A great start for our West Cork Trip. Anja & Anja
