Our daughter and son-in-law had their wedding reception on 18/6/22 in Blairscove. Absolutely delightful is all I can say….the venue, the superb food, the wonderful staff but most of all the professionalism of Anne and Woody the owners. Anne and Woody had a wedding of an old friend the day before ours and you would not be aware of it because when we arrived they made us feel like ours was the most important wedding in the world. That’s what I call gold standard. The quality of the food is amazing for a wedding of 100 people and the venue just sells itself. Bride and groom and family stayed over and the accommodation is excellent. Breakfast was served in the apartment, also lovely food by a lovely member of staff who enjoys working with the blairscove team. Thank you Anne and Woody, we’ve done 4 Michelin star restaurant and accommodation and food in the Lake District a couple of times …you’re up there with the best in every aspect…

Our son and daughter-in-law were married @ Blairscove last month. They and several wedding party members stayed on site for a few days. The setting is breathtaking, the hospitality is extraordinary and warm, the food is unsurpassed. Even the weather was perfect - palm trees in Ireland!? Treat yourself to a most wonderful, relaxing, Ireland experience!!

Our stay was absolutely amazing. We had a lovely set of rooms in an utterly beautiful courtyard. Our first dinner was fabulous - the food out of this world, the setting beautiful and the staff so very lovely and helpful. The balance between chic and putting everyone at their ease was perfect. Dinner was so good that we begged for a table for our second night and we were not disappointed - utterly superb again. The setting on the edge of the bay was lovely and we loved both the Mizen head and Sheepshead Peninsulas. So utterly beautiful and unspoilt. A real highlight of our trip.

An absolute pleasure to stay here. The staff and location are absolutely top notch. The setting is beautiful and we actually got engaged here. We ate in the restaurant on site and both the menu and quality of food are exceptional. We will forever hold Blair’s cove in our hearts with the fondest of memories. Thank you to Ann , Woody and all the team who made our stay so special. Also extra points go to Gus the Bullmastiff on site who is the best boy ❤️

If I could I would live here! We stayed here for a wedding and the entire experience could not have been better. The room (the piggery) had everything you could want. Breakfast came to our door and everything down to the porridge was rich and delicious. Ann and Woody really make you feel like family and you want for nothing when you stay here. The wedding also went off without a hitch in their beautiful courtyard. The food was one of the best meals I have ever had, which is not something you usually say about food at a wedding. The setting was also gorgeous right on the water.

We loved Blairscove. Fabulous location, beautiful views, really gorgeous rooms. The restaurant wasn’t open when we were staying but have been there before and really cannot wait to go back and enjoy the fabulous food and service. And also mustn’t forget awesome cocktails. Really comfortable spaces, everything so well kitted out. If you wanted it it was there. We went bed and breakfast, but you can do self catering there. You really feel you have moved in to somewhere fabulous. Family,so welcoming too. Love the fireplaces...

I love this restaurant, you cannot fault the food, the location the set up. My only little niggle is the welcome from the tall lady I think her name is Ann. She is most unwelcoming and to be honest should be kept behind the scenes not dealing with the customers as she is not a people person

We stayed for two nights self catering. The accommodation was great and everyone was helpful. They seem to have thought of everything. The breakfast was delivered every morning which was a treat we looked forward to. We also enjoyed a fantastic meal in the restaurant especially the buffet starters and desserts. Can’t wait to visit again. There are many nice walks in the area and the Mizen peninsula is a nice trip also.

We enjoyed the best meal in 2021 at Blairs Cove last Saturday. We were fortunate that it was a beautiful evening so we could enjoy the stunning scenery. We will remember our lovely meal in beautiful surroundings for along time. We look forward to planning a return visit
