A Remarkable Wsy To Experience Medieval Ireland
Hard to imagine a more unique and exciting way to experience Ireland than in this amazing VRBO. The castle has an unsurpassed 360 degree views of the water and farmland. Inside, it has the modern conveniences you need while maintaining a rustic atmosphere. The stairs can be a challenge yet the views from the modern upstairs bedroom is worth the risk. Everything was clean, warm and comfortable. Good directions and easy to find on the map. Excellent Wifi throughout. Highly recommend for a once-in-a-lifetime lodging experience.

Absolutely wonderful stay
Staying in the lovely place may not be for everyone, it is an older place, keep that in mind. Seeing that however, the home and property are absolutely gorgeous and worth the stay. I definitely recommend this stay for anyone looking to make a good memory.

An experience in a beautiful area
It is an experience worth having. Our 3 teenagers thought it was very cool and it was a nice way to work some history into our holiday. There are few things that need attention: The light in the upstairs room doesn't appear to be fully secured into the ceiling, one of the lights in the upstairs bathroom needs to be touched a certain way to work and the drain system in the shower should be looked at. But that aside this is really more of an experience than a 4 star hotel (so if you are looking for luxury this may not be for you but if you are looking a unique experience we recommend it).

Even better than we expected!
It has been a dream of my husband's to live in a castle, and we got to do that for three nights with our two young adult sons. The view when you approach the castle on the road is amazing, but those from the top floor as you look out over the bay are truly spectacular. We shopped for food and firewood in Skibbereen, then really didn't need to leave again. With temperatures outside in the low 50s during the day, we absolutely needed a fire to stay warm in the main room. But the beds had plenty of comforters at night to keep us toasty. The hot water for the shower needed a good 30 minutes to heat up, but that was our biggest inconvenience. Cocktail hour up on the top floor each afternoon as the sun set was a highlight.

Amazing Castle Experience
We loved everything about our stay in the Rincolisky Castle. It was the perfect base location for our travels around Ireland. Made our 30th wedding anniversary very special.

Magical retreat
We were so happy to spend 4 incredible nights at the Castle, celebrating a 70th and a 59th birthday (2 couples). Even though the weather was mostly rainy and cold, the castle was warm, charming and dramatic. True, the stairs are not for the faint of heart, and the limestone breaths so everything has a slightly damp feel to it, but this only added to the charm. We explored the region, including the excellent Skibereen Farms Market and the Ring of Beara, as well as an epic day driving the Healy Pass. Cooking at the castle was easy, as the kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed. Yoga in the little shed was restorative. The views from the upstairs unit were so magnificent that it made leaving the room a difficult task! Stephanie is an excellent communicator, everything was as listed. Bucket-list item accomplished!

A Truly Unique Experience
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! If you are looking for a truly unique property and experience, Rincolisky Castle is an excellent choice. It truly is a once in a lifetime experience. The beauty, history and charm of the Castle is unbeatable. Stephanie has kept the original castle intact, but carefully updated it enough, but not enough to lose its character and charm. It is obviously the result of a labor of love. If you are looking for Disneyland Castle, this is not the place for you. This is the real deal.

Beautiful location
We absolutely loved our stay here! The stairs are definitely not for the faint of heart, but this was a once in a lifetime experience and we loved every second of it! The bay is absolutely stunning and you just can’t beat the views. The castle is just outside of town, far enough away to feel remote but close enough that we could go grab lunch and explore the cute shops! Highly suggest a stay here, just remember it’s a 500 year old building, not a fancy hotel.

A magical place to reset
My partner and I stayed here for three nights. Gwen and Stephanie were nothing but accommodating. A gael storm came through while we were there and they came by to just make sure we were ok. We loved the storm and found it to be the best place to be to witness mother nature’s power. We even felt extremely safe knowing the castle has been there for hundreds of years! We cooked dinner every night and had no issues. The place was surprisingly warm even with the colder winds and rain outside. A great getaway and absolutely magical scenery. Highly recommend!
