What guests think
At Lynwood house, travellers consistently praise the warm, hands-on hosts and the scenic, walkable setting with harbour views, while noting that the property is a work in progress with limited parking and no elevator to upper floors.
Rooms are often spacious and comfortable with modern bathrooms and standout views, though a few guests reported temperature or maintenance issues. Cleanliness is generally good but occasional lapses in common areas and bathrooms are mentioned. Breakfast feedback is inconsistent: some enjoyed excellent or tasty options, while others found no cooked breakfast or no breakfast offered at all. Expect a home-style guesthouse experience with charm and a few trade-offs.

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 !

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.

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!

Friendly hosts. Property is in a lovely position about a 10 minute scenic walk into Cobh. Room was spacious with a lovely bathroom however a few things could have improved it - hook or a towel rail in bathroom, proper bedside tables, stand for suitcases…the room is big enough. The property description did mention a breakfast was offered (we hadn’t chosen this option) & reviews also mentioned breakfast but when I asked about it I was told they didn’t do breakfast. Maybe this needs updating - we went out so not a huge problem. There is a beautiful garden for guests to use and as the weather was glorious we did make use of it…definitely not all negative, I hope constructive!

After seeing the place we left and didn’t stay. I don’t think the listing represents reality. You’re renting a room in someone’s house. It’s not a bed and breakfast type place. Everything needs to be fixed except the bathroom. And I mean everything. Total joke on us.

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.

It was nothing like it looked on website. Booked 2 rooms. There was no heat available in each room. Roof was leaking in one room. About the worst place that I have ever stayed. Oh. no hot water in one room. Sink wasn't working, so owner said to brush teeth in the shower.

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! 🇮🇪

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!

Bookers beware. We got a call the morning we were to check in that there were ‘plumbing problems’ and that we had been rebooked at a nearby hotel. When we arrived at said new hotel after hours of driving they had no room in our names and we called the owners of Lynwood for over an hour with no answer. Finally, we drove to the property to find the owners at home on property along with additional house guests. They called the rebooked hotel and found a reservation for us - when we returned, we learned that they had made that reservation days ago because they were ‘overbooked’… after hours of wasted time, didn’t appreciate the dishonesty. And there were no available rooms in Cobh, so we were seriously compromised in our travel plans. Ads to that I am traveling with my aging parents - 75 and 77 who had to ensure the long wait and changes in plan.

There is a beautiful garden for guests to use and as the weather was glorious we did make use of it…definitely not all negative, I hope constructive!
Friendly hosts. Property is in a lovely position about a 10 minute scenic walk into Cobh. Room was spacious with a lovely bathroom however a few things could have improved it - hook or a towel rail in bathroom, proper bedside tables, stand for suitcases…the room is big enough.

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 !

Décevant au regard du prix, surtout sans petit-déjeuner ! Accueil très sympathique, mais ce n'est pas ce à quoi je m'attendais. Logement chez l'habitant

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.

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! 🇮🇪

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Lynwood House. The owners couldn’t have been more helpful, the house and rooms are gorgeous and the breakfast tray in the morning was such a lovely touch. We hope to come back again soon!

Lynnwood House is a charming 200 year old house! Our room was spacious, with great sea views. The bed was incredibly comfortable. The bathroom was large, with a fantastic shower. Electric outlets were on both sides on the bed. We got a delicious breakfast of hot croissant and yogurt with homemade granola. This was a surprise, and a great way to start the day. Both Peter and Finn were lovely hosts. Always friendly and responsive and helpful! We hope to return!
