⚠️⚠️ Please use Google Maps to find us! The postcode is T12 XAY7 ⚠️⚠️ The Coach House is a cosy two-bedroomed cottage situated within the grounds of a private residence, The Old Rectory. Having been lovingly restored in 2016 to the way it is presented now, the Coach House is an ideal spot to base yourself when visiting Cork. We are 15 minutes drive from Cork Airport and Cork City and we are a 5 minute walk into Douglas Village which has many amenities such as parks, shops, restaurants, shopping centres etc In 2019 we renovated the front of the Coach House so that guests now have their own front entrance and patio area. The courtyard between our home and the Coach House is no longer shared use. It is strictly private for our family use.
We have met some really lovely people since we opened the doors of The Coach House and we hope to welcome them back in the future.
The Coach House is in a great location for visiting Cork City and all it has to offer....The English Market, University College Cork, Blarney Castle, Cork City Gaol, Fota Wildlife Park, Saint Fin Barre's Cathedral, Blackrock Castle, The Crawford Art Gallery, to name a few. We are a 30 minute drive from Kinsale and all its bars, restaurants, beaches and Charles Fort.
