ACCOMMODATION REVIEW
Perryville House Hotel is a Victorian Manor House that overlooks the famous Marina of Kinsale. Known as the Gourmet Capital of Ireland, Kinsale is a medieval fishing port with its narrow streets and quays providing a picturesque location for the hotel. Combining the essence of a Victorian Manor with a delightful interior, Perryville House is lavishly furnished with designer fabrics, Irish antique furniture, paintings and fresh garden flowers throughout.
Lovely large beds and luxurious bathrooms afford you the perfect setting for sleepy good nights and happy mornings, while the town's unique setting, with meandering narrow streets and quaint houses, captivate all visitors to Kinsale. This historical town offers many activities including sailing, yachting, fishing, diving, watersports, windsurfing and horse riding. It is also a haven for the shopper, boasting many specialist shops and a wine museum.
Along the coast of Kinsale are many fine spots for fishing, while the deep harbour allows access at all stages of the tide. Visitors can explore the nearby Charles Fort and James Fort, both fine examples of 17th century fortresses. Located in the centre of the town, Desmond Castle dates from around 1500 and now houses a historical display relating to the castle and town. A new wine museum gives the history of the "Wine Geese" - the Irish families who became involved in the wine trade overseas.
