Reviews for Maranatha Country House
Review 1：We had nothing to complain about
Review 2：The hosts were exceptional, nothing was too much trouble, The service was 1st class, The room was as described and we will definitely be returning again. Highly recommended .
Review 3：The wi fi wasn't very strong but the hosts compensated for it in the bill. Otherwise, it was a great place to stay.
Review 4：We loved our location in a quiet setting very close to Blarney Castle. Our room was large, comfortable and had many amenities. The breakfast room and food were outstanding and Olwen and Dennis could not have been more hospitable; even forwarding a jacket on to a hotel when we forgot it. I would come back here and spend more time.
Review 5：A lovely location that suited our needs for travelling to visit family. The welcome was very warm and friendly. The rooms are fab! so large and so much character. We would definitely stay again in the future.
Review 6：Not a fault by any means but just to let people know that it isn't walking distance to Blarney village if anyone wanted to have a few drinks you'll need a taxi.
Review 7：We really enjoyed our stay, our hosts were absolutely lovely and very welcoming. We felt like royalty staying in the Regal Suite which had a huge jacuzzi bath in the room! Absolutely fabulous stay! We'll be back! :)
Review 8：Absolutely beautiful B&B! Host and Hostess were very warm and inviting. The room was spacious and had a walk out balcony to enjoy the evening as the day came to a close. Breakfast was fantastic in a nice sunroom and our Hostess ensured everything was to our liking. It's in a quiet setting at the edge of town, very close to the local attractions and Cork.
Review 9：The B&B is located in a beautiful setting handy to all amenities. The rooms are well laid out and very roomy .Breakfast was fabulous ,would certainly recommend .
Review 10：Dont judge the front of the house, one cant tell what a class is hidden inside.
Review 11：We liked absolutelly everything. From the very friendly staff, throughout the romantic and spatious room to the lovely breakfast room!
Review 12：small detail. Had a trampoline outside and the kids weren't allowed to use. They were disappointed. This does not detract from the amazing place. This hotel is a little difficult to get to but not too bad. Could have had better signs showing where the place was
Review 13：This is the most amazing place. the rooms were amazing, the food was amazing, the house was amazing, It was like staying in our own little castle. Each room is unique and AMAZING. The grounds were very nice,
Review 14：Unique and glamorous. A friendly welcome and introduction to a very special home. It was our honeymoon and we were treated to a room upgrade to the Royal Suite! It was wonderful.
Review 15：There was nothing we didn't like.
Review 16：Maranatha is set in farmland and has a country estate feel with beautiful lawns and gardens around it. Olwen is a gracious hostess who has decorated the house in a grand manner. Our room up the wide, carpeted staircase and at the top of the stairs was impressive and has a fabulous view of the garden. The room was comfortable and breakfast was taken in the delightfully decorated conservatory. We were given a gift of chocolate and snacks when we left.
Review 17：Wifi not working at time but did not matter as we had 3G, hot breakfast could be more varied
Review 18：The bedrooms were fantastically decorated, the house and grounds are immaculate and Olwen was a great host!
Review 19：Somtimes chilly in the rooms but bed was sufficiently warm.
Review 20：Beautiful house and rooms, nice garden, breakfast in Wintergarten (everymorning had Johann Strauß music from tape), Great hospitality, Land Lady gAve excellent suggestions for trips.
Review 21：I received a really warm welcome. The house is beautiful and set on gorgeous grounds. The room was huge, with a large comfortable bed, spacious bathroom and peaceful balcony. A great night's sleep and an excellent breakfast!
Review 22：If I have to say something it would just be the tv, there was a special sequence to turning it and the programs on and I just didn't know what it was. (Not that I needed to watch TV)
Review 23：The location, the comfort of the room and bed.
Review 24：Nothing at all.
Review 25：Everything we liked about this B&B. the accommadation was an A+. The breakfast was amazing. The host was great. From the beginning to the end of our stay our expections were exceeded. And we cannot leave out the friendly dog who sits guard at the door.
Review 26：The breakfast display was beautiful and everything was delicious except the boxed cereals which were out of keeping with the standard of the rest - they were own brand from a supermarket.
Review 27：The intriguing Top Hat bedroom, so spacious and with the large round bed and themed decor.
Review 28：I wish the mattresses were a little better. We loved our rooms, but the beds were a little old and could use some updating, though I know that is expensive and the room rates are so reasonable. The beds aren't bad enough to pass by this B&B, however! You'll be so enthralled with the place that the beds won't really matter. We'd go back in a second!!
Review 29：Oh, wow! The location of this bed and breakfast is incredible. The grounds are beautiful and the drive up and around the hill to the property is like traveling to another world! I wish that I would have planned a day just to spend there, enjoying the property. The home is gorgon and we lived every moment of being there!
Review 30：That we had to leave!!!
Review 31：Rooms were exquisite - each one is stunning and thoughtfully appointed. My mother and my children were equally comfortable and at home. My husband and I would consider it for a romantic weekend away, too! The quiet, the garden, the view were the break we needed. And a short taxi trip into Blarney Village.
Review 32：Everything, we liked the place, the amability if its owner, the room was very comfortable, the house it's placed in the countryside sourranded by nature, it's perfect to be desconnected about city stress and have a relaxing pause.
Review 33：a little bit difficult to find
Review 34：if you want a lodge like in a theatre, then it is right for you. really big room, big bath with a view to the garden. nice surrounding, a bit far away from the town. portentous but pleasant.
Review 35：Perfect location for me. A very special and unique place to stay. Definitely not your normal b&b. The owners and staff are great and very friendly and the breakfast was wonderful with plenty of choice. I would highly recommend this place for a romantic time away from it all, and it would be a wonderful place for dinner, if the owners ever decided to do evening meals. Well done everyone.involved.
Review 36：Spent one night with our family in a beautiful large Quad room with two King size beds. It was perfect. Beautiful estate country home takes you back to another time. Lovely grounds and only five minute drive from Blarney Castle. Wish we could have stayed longer. Lady of the house was gracious and we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast in the beautiful rose breakfast room. Thank-you Olwen.
Review 37：Olween & Doug made us feel like long-lost relatives, seeing to our every need and doing whatever it took to make us comfortable. Our room was enormous with plenty of space for two king size beds! Breakfast was as good as any we've had and served in a gorgeously open sun room. Easily the most enjoyable B&B experience we've had in our 10 day Ireland vacation.
Review 38：It is truly a country home of the last century, with very large rooms. The owners have continually updated it and decorated it. It's plain that they enjoy their vocation as hosts.
Review 39：Everything was excellent. I can't say enough good things about it! It was beautifully decorated with little touches that showed the owners care! I will stay at Maranatha Country House on every business trip I make to Cork!
Review 40：8:30 is a bit late for breakfast for travelers wanting to get on their way. Wi-fi problems (hopefully temporary) were a bit of an annoyance. Why give local coupons to guests as they leave, not when they arrive?
Review 41：Beautiful views off comfortable terrace. Very friendly owners and staff, and very apologetic for the wi-fi problems which they are attempting to remedy. Super quiet.
Review 42：Olwen and Douglas were warm and welcoming hosts who even made a dinner reservation for us at a wonderful local pub. We enjoyed talking with Olwen and Douglas who are quite charmimg. The carefully restored home is beautiful and in a nice quiet setting.
