Short stay in south of Ireland
There is not much going on in Fermoy, but it is possible to drive to some major attractions such as the national park if you don’t mind a bit of a drive. The house is very tastefully decorated and well equipped, but it is very small and the beds are listed as queens. If you are coming from America, please note this means full. Not a lot of room for suitcases, but the listing clearly stated how small it was. Overall acute little place, but not really in a destination spot.

Feeling like home - manchmal zu sehr...
Das Haus war wie beschrieben, freundlich eingerichtet, die Küche gut ausgestattet, der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin wegen falschen WLAN-Schlüssels schnell und freundlich. Bei dem Titel "Wie zu Hause fühlen" haben wir uns jedoch gefragt, ob es bedeutet - sich wie zu Hause - um alle auftretenden Schwierigkeiten selbst kümmern zu müssen - z.B. weil die angekündigte Housekeeperin im Urlaub ist (zwar telefonisch erreichbar, aber nicht vor Ort) . Der Schlüsselsafe erwies sich als technisch fast unüberwindbar, nach 15 Minuten und erheblichem Gefummel waren wir drin. Die unterschiedlichen Schalter zum Aufheizen des Wassers und zum Heizen des Hauses wurden dank genauer Beschreibungen- teilweise auf Knien- gefunden. Auch auf Knien (ich bin 68) und mit nur mit einer Lupe in der Hand war der Heizkörper im Wohnraum jeden Abend in Gang zu setzen. Umständlich, aber ok - wir sind ökologisch bewusste Menschen und sparen auch gerne Energie! Die angekündigten Strafzahlungen beim Vergessen des Ausschaltens allerdings ließen eine Atmosphäre entstehen, die so gar nicht zum formulierten Anspruch "feeling like home" passt - sehr schade!

Short stay
We stayed for 5 days- it was very pleasant and comfortable. We didn’t have any towels for showering when we arrived and had to search for them. It was different to have to turn off the switches for outlets and having the water to heat up. Overall, the experience was good

Exceptionally clean and sanitized top-to-bottom. The furnishings were comfortable and well maintained. A great location in Fermoy, just a short distance to everything in town. The owners were very interactive and I found messages from them in my VRBO inbox as well as emails. I would only be able to rate this experience and property the highest possible.

Lovely property in a great location
This is a lovely home to stay in. The house has everything you need for your stay; everything has been thought about even the pitch and put clubs for the course across the road! The neighbourhood is really quiet and neighbours are very nice. Excellent location. If I was to suggest one thing, it would be to maybe have a washer/dryer instead of just the washing machine. It was a fantastic find for us and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others. Thanks ladies.

Extremely small space
The house is incredibly small - we actually debated renting somewhere else as soon as we arrived. The kitchen is tiny - virtually impossible to cook with two people - dining table is tiny too. We stayed in 4 different houses in Ireland this was our least favorite.

Fermoy review.
I know Fermoy well as I have family living in the town. It was nice to have our own base as it has been a busy time. The property provided the comfort and the privacy that we needed. We were able to walk in to the town from where we were. We also walked to my parents house in the Cork Rd.

Home away from home in friendly Fermoy!
Myself, Husband and Daughter are just back from this lovely stay, Contactless Check-in was smooth and straightforward, the Neighbours were so friendly and made the effort to say hi and welcome us. The house was so cozy with everything we needed for our stay and the location was great with Aldi and Iceland just a short stroll away. We would definitely come back again!

I was impressed with the property overall however it was a little chilly in the evening (late November). We were out most of the time so didn't want to light the fire later in the evening before bed. Possibly a convector/fan type heater would be useful in the winter months.The only other suggestion I would make is a net/voile curtain in the lounge so can open the curtains but still have some privacy in the day.
