The additional costs added for electricity and heating are excessive and came as a shock at the end of our week.. warnings should be made to future renters.

We had a great holiday at Steepes Place.. Its the kind of authentic old cottage we love but beautifully clean and with everything you would need. Betty & her husband were amazing hosts & even brought down a mattress, from their own home, to put on the sofa bed so that my dad could sleep downstairs ! The bedrooms upstairs were lovely & the beds were so comfortable. It is in a great location for visiting lots of attractions but so peaceful if you just want some quiet time. Would definitely go back in the future. Betty keep up the good work as you are doing a great job.

Kept clean and overall a comfortable stay.. The one issue is with the bathroom - It's about as far from the bedroom as you can get, not ideal for those nighttime trips! The shower is a disappointing trickle. Kitchen facilities are good with everything you need and in good condition.

We liked the scenery, the peacefulness and the proximity to trails. It was very relaxing and in an excellent 'full Irish' historical setting. A wonderful experience!

A cosy, time warped property,in a lovely location. The housekeeper is a lovely lady, who couldn't have been kinder or more helpful.

The house is a traditional cottage with low ceilings and thick walls. A very well equipped kitchen and modern bathroom have been added to the ground floor. There are some nice views and woodland walks while the road network gives ready access to other locations. The village is nicely placed to access various attractions

The cottage is immaculate and represents absolute value for money. I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage to anyone.

The reception at our cottage was just perfect. The owner was very helpful and informative, you just needed to ask. The cottage is located very centrally with easy access to most attractions in South Ireland.

A fantastic place to stay in beautiful surroundings. It was in a really peaceful and traditional Irish village and everyone was friendly and helpful. The cottage had a lovely atmosphere and it made us all feel like we were staying with relatives. We will definitely be wanting to come back. A great place to go if you want some peace and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of life.

We arrived exhausted from a long journey. Betty met us, showed us around, lit the fire and made us feel at home. The property and garden/yard were spotlessly clean. Everything is in working order and well maintained. The scenery was stunning. Beautiful walks in the mountains. An ideal location as a base for exploring Ireland. Our Jack Russel loved it. Local villages: Ballyorgan and Ardpatrick. Local towns: Kilmallock, Mallow, Charleville, Kildorrery, Limerick. Places to go: Cashel, Cork, Ballyhoura mountain walks and bike trails. Ballyhoura way. I have returned to the UK very relaxed and totally satisfied with the holiday and the excellent hospitality of the people of the Republic of Ireland.

A beautiful cottage with a large farmyard. A hidden heaven for dog and dog owner. Ease back into natures amazing therapy. Clean and comfortable. Come home to a real fire - added country feeling. Soft spoken, friendly and genuine country people.

The area is surrounded by wood trails and mountains; fantastic walks. Whole area - Glenosheen/Kilmallock/Kilfinane steeped in history. The caretaker - absolutely lovely lady, could not have been more helpful. Nothing too much - charming and courteous! Garden = disused farm yard but very good

We were welcomed by a lovely neighbour to the property who took us round the cottage and clearly explained everything and that, if we needed anything at all, she was just a short walk or phone call away. The welcome pack was a very nice and unexpected touch. The charming 300 year old cottage, which was very well-equipped with all the modern amenities, was clean and very homely, still containing personal items of the lady that had once lived for most of her life. The owner also paid a pleasant courtesy call to see that we had everything we needed. Just 5 minutes drive from Ardpatrick or 10 minutes from the larger Kildorrerey and situated approximately halfway between Limerick and Cork, this is an isolated location with little or no nightlife but rich in beauty, peace and tranquility. A perfect medicine for the stressed-out city dweller! I have only one issue - anyone over 5'4" will have to do some head-ducking when moving around the bedrooms but that comes with the charm and age of the cottage. All in all, a memorable experience which we are likely to repeat.

We were made to feel very welcome by the owner, they could not have done enough for us. This property is highly recommended for a peaceful holiday.
