Marcella and John were great hosts! They were very helpful in recommending some of the best places to see, giving much-needed directions, and providing laundry service after long hours of ceili dancing! I appreciated their hospitality and friendly nature, and highly recommend them.

I am really happy of my stay in Marcella's home. She and her husband John are really welcoming, heulpful, wonderful people. Rooms, bathroom and a house are very clean and tidy and the house is located in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. They are really hepfull and very, very nice persons. Marcella is also a good cook. And through everyday communication with them I quickly improve my English language. Thank you for everything.
It was a very pleasant experience and I highly recommend Marcella and John if you looking for acommodation.June 2015
I was in Ireland for two months before I stayed with Marcella and her family. And I foolishly thought that I've seen all the Irish hospitality there is. This is my best experience so far. They were most welcoming and helpful, and the room was absolutely beautiful and clean. They showed genuine interest in me, and I only wish I could've talk with them more. I would absolutely recommend this host.
If you stay in Cork, make this your first homestay option, you certainly won't regret it.
Thank you Marcella, for everything! It was pleasure to meet you and your family, and I am deeply grateful for the experience.Slán agus beannacht leat!

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
