Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great little town. Hurleys Pub a gem. Understated with great food , freshly cooked and it showed. Great value and worth a stop. Local supermarket had Prosecco 30% cheaper than Kinsale.

Lovely little town which we spent a weekend in. Very close to beautiful beaches. Great base for exploring the wild Atlantic way.

I stumbled across this lovely little place while there was a fund raiser in progress for Ukraine. I believe this place exemplifies the best of small towns.

Very well maintained Grotto to Our Lady and an informative plaque explaining the unusual events which took place here. Parking available close to the site.

Lovely village spoiled by cars . They’d park on your head if they could even though the ‘car park’ is located a short distance away. New plaza is neither a footpath or car park and the confusion will lead to an accident. Such a shame that the village can’t reach its potential with its location on the Wild Atlantic Way. I’ve no doubt the businesses would increase their turn over ten fold if the plaza was used for the purpose it was designed for.

The grotto is in a lovely, peaceful setting despite being on the side of the road. There are places to park very close to it and seats and benches available. The statue of Our Lady is supposed to move as she breathes. We didn't see it on this occasion but we did enjoy sitting quietly and looking at the surrounding setting.

Grotto located on the outskirts of Ballinspittle that drew thousands of people to this quiet community in the eighties when locals claimed to have seen the grotto statue move. Statue and Grotto well maintained to this day .

We visited here to try and find any records of my family ,after a cuppa in a small cafe we were directed to a church yard where we found a grave of a Martin, we were also informed there was a Martin family in nearby Garretstown but we did not have time to track down , certainly these small places offer a better experience of the real Ireland.

Hallo, ich komme erst heute zu Beantwortung der Frage.
Aus meiner Sicht ist es sehr weit von Kinsale nach Ballinspittle(ca.15 Autominuten)
Die Straße ist sehr eng und wegen dem Autoverkehr nicht empfehlenswert. Hohe Unfallgefahr für alle Beteiligten(Fußgänger in erster Linie. Ich rate von einer Fußwanderung ab.
