Pubs & Houses







The people in Kinsale are the nicest, kindest and friendliest people you will find anywhere. There is always a warm welcome where ever you go and enquires of where you have been, come from & are going to. Advice of what you may have missed or need to go back for is always welcome and given freely.
The streets of Kinsale are mainly small & wind though the town, they are packed with pretty houses interesting shops & wall to wall pubs. You can walk up & down the same street many times and still see a shop or pub or poster that you have previously missed, and that is nothing to do with the drink!
One thing that I will say both Ian & I were astounded at how expensive everything was. I am sure that you could eat a lot cheaper than we did but most restaurants seemed to be pitched about the same price range. You need to book in advance in most of the restaurants and some of them 4-6 weeks ahead. Check your budget before you go! It’s not for the feint hearted!!
We hired a car but you can get a bus from the airport directly into Kinsale & return. It takes about ½ an hour. The same bus goes to Cork so if you fancy some time there it is easy to get to. You would be hard pushed to get bored just in Kinsale in 3-4 days.
