We visited Ballinwillin partly due to the recommendations on this site. We were two couples, us with a 15 month old baby.
We got such a warm welcome and all requests were met with a friendly ‘can do’ attitude. The rooms were clean and smartly furnished in a contemporary style and it was quiet and resting… perfect for the baby to toddle around too.
We had a lovely tour of the farm and as the sign inside the entrance read ‘arrived as strangers and left as friends.’
The food was fantastic too, simple… But what with having put the baby down, really convenient to be able to eat in. Ballinwillin’s venison and wine were superb too.
I would have no reservation in recommending BH to other families or couples.
Reviewed 17 August 2011Ballinwillin House is a most welcoming and relaxed place to stay. We were travelling to West Cork and this was a very good place to break the trip and very easy to find just off the Motorway. The room was very clean and tidy and had plenty of space.. in the morning-All you would expect of a good Irish breakfast and more. Mitchelstown was a quiet and interesting small town with some interesting walks which can be seen on the tourist boards in the main square.

Reviewed 5 August 2011This place is a gem! The hosts Patrick and Miriam are full of interesting ,funny stories and its more like staying with family than at a B&B. The room was lovely, we had full reign of the farm and of the house. Its the best few nights sleep i’d had in ages. The wine’s are lovely and the breakfast was everything you’d want.
I will most definitely be back!
Reviewed 6 June 2011What a gem! My husband and I stayed two nights with Patrick and Miriam, and wished we could have stayed more. The room was large, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The breakfasts are fantastic – almost everything sourced right there on the farm, so fresh. I hear the dinners are even better! Miriam and Patrick are lovely hosts and so interesting to talk to. Hopefully one day we will be back – we have already recommended Ballinwinnin House to ur Irish friends.
Stayed May 2011, travelled as a couple
