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.

    We had the pleasure of experiencing the Clock Tower this evening as a family. Our kids are 5 & 7 and very lively ! I worried that they may be bored on this tour but I couldn’t have been more wrong. They were mesmerised by it. Dorthy, our tour guide, painted vivid images of life in the town and tower as we rose up through each floor. With each floor revealing itself with a new wonder. The 360 degree view at the top was gorgeous especially on a clear evening. What an amazing attraction. I recommend this tour so much. Don’t miss out. It’s worth it.

    The Boyle vault. We were in Doneraile Court and our guide Mags told us of how At Leger, Boyle, O Brien & Barry families were interrelated. We said we were going east and Mags said St Mary's in Youghal is a must.

    The Boardwalk in Youghal makes a very pleasant walk. It is 1.9 km long, so a walk down and back in 3.8 km, or about 2.4 miles. The boards are nice and springy underfoot, and with the beautiful view and sounds of the sea, it gives an enormous feeling of wellbeing.Highly recommend!

    'Please look after these walls before its too late.
    The Town Walls are in need of a lot of TLC. Appparently the person in charge doesn't think that clearing the huge stinking piles of garden rubbish dumped from nearby residents is worth shifting so the appearance of the Historic Listed walls is really bad. The rusty scaffolding and fencing with trees growing inside is also not a credit to the caretaker of the walls. The access gates through the Sally Walls were closed for 3 years until the person in charge was challenged about the decision to keep them closed. The steps up to the walls are in urgent need of repair at the bottom from Ashe Street and they also need cleaning because when wet the green moss makes them dangerous. Signposting to the walls is also missing at the top of the steps. Apart from that, they are pretty impressive but in parts in danger of collapse because of all the Russian Vine which has been allowed to climb over the wall unchecked.
