Lovely old admirals home with tons of character
Peter was an excellent host, and the views from the harbor-facing rooms were absolutely gorgeous. We really enjoyed our time in Cobh. Thoroughly recommend the coffee shop near Supervalu in the middle of town.

Pete and Finn were fantastic hosts. They went above and beyond and helped us with travel plans and gave wonderful ideas of what to do in the area. I was looking for charming Irish countryside accommodations and this did not disappoint.

This was the best bed and breakfast we've ever been to and we've stayed in lots of them. Peter and his wife were amazing hosts! And the breakfast was the best one we had on our 8 day trip thru Ireland.. don't hesitate just book this one!

Nice location. Room was large and bed very comfortable. Bathrooms have been upgraded but needed a good cleaning of floors and walls I think. Had a nice view of the harbour. Host was very good and helpful.

Warm welcome, relaxing ambiance
If you enjoy a relaxing, homely ambiance Lynwood House is perfect. You will have a warm welcome, great advice about the locality and a lovely room in a Victorian House. Our room had a sea view with a settee facing the view. Perfect for watching the maritime traffic.
Thank you Peter and Finn for your warm welcome and great hospitality.

Updated historic building in a lovely town
Everything about the Lynwood House was wonderful! The room was beautiful, with a sitting area and a brand new on suite bathroom. There was a kettle for tea, a hair dryer, and a television. The bed was extremely comfortable and the views from the room are unmatched. Peter was so warm and welcoming, providing a bit of history and directing us to the best places in the town. We'd be glad to return on a future trip!

Perfect location. 10 minute walk into town. It’s an older property with nice views of the water.
Breakfast was nice with croissants and coffee or tea. The host Peter is very welcoming and is knowledgeable on things to do in the area.
Rooms are a bit cold but it is October and the weather was cold windy and rainy while we were there. I would recommend a stay.

If you don’t like dogs this is not the place for you as their huge dog was always around - even whilst we were having breakfast.
These premises are a recent purchase by the couple and are a ‘work in progress’ project.
There is no cooked breakfast option but the continental is ok and the fresh home baked soda bread was delicious !

My friend and I stayed in two rooms. Peter is a great host, full of helpful information and really friendly. The rooms were amazing and the beds were extremely comfortable. Each room having an ensuite is a bonus and doesn’t take away from the spaciousness of the room. There is also an elevator for guests with mobility issues, which is a huge bonus in guesthouses, especially if that age. If you’re a dog lover, the family dog is also a lovable gentle giant. We highly recommend this guesthouse.

The owners, Peter and Finn, were extremely hospitable and genuine. Peter was quick to respond to all of my messages and went above and beyond in assisting my daughter and I with our late check in.
Although the property is in transition and missing a few details, it's still quite satisfactory.
We would definitely stay again! Beautiful home and accommodations!
P.S. Junior the dog is a keeper!

Overall, we feel that our stay was good. The hosts were so helpful, kind and informative. The went above and beyond on service. The hosts were always available and very very helpful. A . The bed and shower in our room was very very good. It seems that they are starting in this Air BnB journey and will have it perfect one day. The common areas would benefit from a little cleaning and tiddying up. We enjory our stay here overall and would recommend it primarily for the host experience.

I can’t say enough good things about Peter & Fin at Lynwood! They are warm & gracious hosts. The property is cozy and clean. The furnishings are beautiful and the bathrooms are fully remodeled. It’s a short walk into town, which made our visit so easy. The coffee, tea and croissants each morning were delicious. Peter offered several suggestions on what to do locally. The Titanic Experience, the Irish Heritage Museum & St. Colman’s Cathedral were all well worth it! Loved chatting with Peter and Fin, too. HIGHLY recommend and well back on our next trip to Ireland! 🇮🇪

It's a former military quarters slowly being converted into a rooming house. A work in progress. There is no included breakfast at present and it's a km or so to town and cafés, restaurants. There is off street parking, but only for about 5 cars with a bit of Tetris to get in and out. With all 14 rooms booked, parking on the street would be required. Yvonne, who was looking after the place when we stayed, was lovely and helpful with suggestions for where to eat and what to do. She let us keep our beer cold in the kitchen fridge - no in room fridge - and even offered us some leftovers for dinner the night we arrived.
