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.

    Beautiful Park
    Its a beautiful walk in Cork just outside Fitzgerald Park. Only downside is that there are no public toilets nearby. But other than that it’s magnificent.

    Great day solving clues in Midleton Cork
    Did the midleton mystery trail with family.took hr and half. 11 yr old daughter really enjoyed solving the clues. Great value at €12. Can take as long as you like doing it no pressure. Had enjoyable walk around midleton while doing it also. About 20 clues which could be varied up a notch as many related to years. Really good directions included so no need to be familiar with the area. Overall really enjoyed it and cracked the clue in the end. Something different for kids and elders. Would defo do in another town.

    I have always enjoyed this golf course with my friends and family. Beautifully laid out and scenic with plenty of nice holes to play. Well worth the visit and if you like something to eat and drink after very good bar and Restaurant upstairs.

    Nice trail and great views but trying to rip people off
    I have been shortchanged twice here and didn't bother making an issue as the place was busy. I wouldn't lower my standards. Also a colleague of mine paid for a monthly running pass for me which I never received. Nice trail but conveniently forgetting to hand out change?. People aren't fools. I wont support anymore.

    Amazing place !
    What a wonderful experience !!

    We were 2 adults and 2 kids (age 6 and 8) and were all complete beginners 🙈

    Zoë put us all at ease - particularly our 6 year old ! She kept Saoirse chatting for the whole trek and even managed to get her trotting on Oscar the pony despite her initially being terrified.

    She gave both girls rosettes at the end and even treated us to her homemade caramel slices 💕

    Absolutely must do activity if you’re in Kinsale !

    Great course
    Really enjoyed the round. For a municipal this is really well looked after and the greens were, on the whole, very true. Pleasant welcome in the pro shop and will definitely play there a few times while we are here.

    Great fun - for all
    Despite water levels being fairly low at the end of the summer, we were still able to have fund canoeing down the river and 7 sets of different size rapids.

    We had a group of varying abilities and they ensured that all were catered for with us all learning some new skills and having fun in the process.

    An amazing, beautiful, informative, funny, worryfree tour ! Kevin was an outstanding driver/tour guide .
    Our 4 day trip from Galway to Dublin- by way of Cliffs of Moher, Dingle, Kerry, Killarney, Cork, Kilkenny, etc was much more than we even anticipated. Ireland is an amazing country.
    Kevin was our tour guide that would recommend things to see/do each day and let us decide. He always had a smile, funny story, and lots of history. He knew many sights we had never even heard of. Outstanding vacation!
