- Kevin (10/5): Fantastic place and lovely hosts. - Friendly welcome, very modern and clean. Nice room and big bed. Breakfast was exceptional.
- Kai (9/5): -
- Emma (10/5): Beautiful Bantry Stay - I booked this stay for my parents and they both loved their stay. Josephine was a fabulous hostess and everything was perfect. The room was beautiful with stunning views of Bantry Bay. Breakfast each morning was lovely with a fantastic selection.

- Sandra (10/5): Our stay at Edencrest was a joy! Josephine was the perfect host as was Barry who drove us to our restaurant when we coul - Our stay at Edencrest was a joy! Josephine was the perfect host as was Barry who drove us to our restaurant when we couldn’t get a taxi. We were made to feel very welcome, cleanliness was excellent, breakfast very tasty and plentiful.
- Yolande (10/5): Topplek met top gastvrouw. - Mooie uitzicht en het bubbelbad was heerlijk op de kamer. De gastvrouw was erg aardig en gezellig. We hadden keuzes voor het ontbijt en de scones waren ook heerlijk. Niks
- Perkins (10/5): Charming hosts and beautifully comfortable accommodation - perfection. - Josephine and Barry have a beautifully appointed home. They are the most charming of hosts and offer the warmest welcome imaginable.
They kindly offered us information and advice about local attractions which was solid gold
Their rooms are extremely comfortable, well appointed and the standard of cleanliness is exceptional. Nothing at all, even a bit of rain added to the atmosphere of South Western Ireland. They say the rain keeps Ireland "Green" and it seem to work...
- Eric (9/5): -
- Julia (10/5): Edencrest was more than anyone could hope for. - The welcome from Josephine was exceptionally friendly and set the scene for our stay. Barry recommended two trips to us, both of which were amazing. The room was spacious, well decorated and extremely comfortable, there was the bonus of the visitors lounge, which although we didn’t use, was good to know was there if we’d wanted to. Nothing, everything was good.
- Luuk (9/5): -
- Gerard (9/5): - Location and the host and hostess! Simply amazing
- Maureen (10/5): -
- Christine (10/5): - Sehr schöne Lage, mit toller Aussicht. Äußerst freundliche Gastgeber. Mit guten Tipps für Restaurants und Aktivitäten. Hervorragendes Frühstück. Haben uns außerordentlich wohl gefühlt. Zimmer sehr schön, Betten bequem und alles sauber. Sehr gerne wieder!
- Juliette Ducrot (7/5): Accueillant mais peu confortable - L'accueil très chaleureux de la propriétaire, le petit déjeuner Lit peu confortable, très bruyant, les serviettes de toilette
- vincent (9/5): Merci Joséphine et Gary bravo et encore merci « think you So much » - La gentillesse, l’accueil, la propreté, le petit déjeuner, l’emplacement, la vue, l’équipement de la chambre avec les attentions, le prix compétitif et attractif Rien vraiment
- Susan (8/5): For a one night stay, the accommodation was just what I needed, good facilities, excellent hosts. - I liked that the property was easy to find, close to the town and easy access for the festival. I find it too hot with a 15 tog duvet (I should remember to bring my travel one) and, with the window open, the constant barking of dogs from the nearby farm was annoying though I realise the owners can't be expected to do anything about it.
- Rebecca (10/5): A green jewel - Josephine and Barry were wonderful hosts and looked after us so well. There was a beautiful view of Bantry bay from our room and the resident's comfy lounge. The breakfasts were brilliant. Plenty of choice for vegetarian and beautifully cooked. Nothing
- Noëlle (10/5): Sehr charmante Gastgeber - Alleine für die Gastgeber würden wir ein weiteres Mal dort übernachten. Wir waren das erste Mal in einem B&B und der Aufenthalt dort hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Die Zimmer waren liebevoll eingerichtet und das Frühstück war sehr umfangreich. Es hat Parkplätze direkt bei der Unterkunft.
- Prue (10/5): Really nice play to stay - We loved our stay and we’re sorry it was only one night. Josephine and Barry were amazing hosts. Bed comfortable, big room, good shower, great views from our windows. Breakfast good. Nothing
- Mary (9/5): A very pleasant, restful, helpful stay. - Josephine and Barry were excellent hosts who went out of their way to make me feel welcome. Their kindness was much appreciated. Nothing.
- simone (9/5): -
- Marcus (9/5): - Comfortable appartment and welcoming host!
- André (10/5): Un B&B excellent à Bantry - Nous avons adoré la grande chambre avec son dressing.
Hôte très aimable qui s'est chargée de nous réserver l'excellent restaurant Dinemark West Restaurant à proximité.
Petit-déjeuner superbe avec du choix. Chauffe-eau individuel de la douche qui n'est pas très pratique
- Annelies (9/5): - De gastvrouw en gastheer waren zeer vriendelijk. Het ontbijt was super, vooral de zelfgemaakte scones. De kamer was picobello in orde.
- Elisabeth (8/5): - Copieux et excellent petit déjeuner !

- Tsvetana (9/5): Such a cozy place and the most welcoming hosts you could ever meet, amazing experience - We got a specious room with a view over the Bantry bay. Very comfortable, spotlessly clean and charming. No words to express how friendly and welcoming and helpful our hosts were. Thank you both Josephine and Barry. All was wonderful - beautiful house and front garden, tasty breakfast and the most welcoming hosts. Free car park at the place, which was quite important for visitors. On the other hand, Bantry is a charming town and the perfect starting point to explore West Cork, the Sheep's Head loop (drive and walk to the lighthouse), as well as the ring of Beara. All these sights are just amazing, especially for nature-lovers - stunning views all around. We were extremely lucky with the weather, having perfect sunshine and blue skies most of the six days we spent there. Highly recommended to everyone, you will not be disappointed!!! The Eden Crest is now in our list of favorite places to stay at. One of the best we have ever been to, and we will be back for sure. Some more hangers in the wardrobe would be nice for longer stays as our
- Claudio Enrico (8/5): Buono ma molto caro - La collocazione e la gestione
- Kevin (10/5): Highly recommended a must see for travellers in this part of Ireland - The hostess was absolutely lovely and engaging. She was very helpful in assisting us finding places to go and eat, including the local sites of interest. I have never been to this part of Ireland before and the friendliness of the people and sites to see were extremely enjoyable. The choice of food for breakfast was excellent and I really enjoyed my time there. I do intend to go back again. Nothing of note
- Milena (9/5): Amazing! - La simpatia dei proprietari! Ottima la colazione, ricca . Tutto molto pulito, bagno con prodotti in omaggio in abbondanza. Mobili vintage ma funzionali. Mancava una tenda che oscurasse veramente bene la luce della finestra ! Per me fastidioso…
- 66Manu (9/5): - Posizione panoramica sulla baia. Struttura nuova, camere moderne e pulite. Proprietari molto gentili e disponibili.
- Constantin (9/5): - Very friendly and personal touch. Good breakfast!
- Paola (10/5): Accogliente e romantico, top per le coppie!! - Avevamo un miniappartamento con cabina armadio, bagno molto ampio con corridoio al piano superiore della casa con vista mare.
Colazione di qualità e ricca di dolce, salato e frutta.
Cortesia top della proprietaria. Lo consiglio a chi e’automunito, a piedi e’ un po’ fuori.
- Silvia (10/5): - Mi è piaciuto tutto! Proprietaria fantastica!
- Lena (10/5): Best Bed & Breakfast that we had in Ireland! - Very lovely room and host! Such a nice overall stay

- Annalisa (9/5): - Struttura molto pulita ed accogliente a conduzione familiare. I proprietari, la signora Josephine e il signor Barry, ci hanno accolto calorosamente e hanno dato utili suggerimenti e indicazioni per il nostro viaggio. Buona posizione. Abbiamo molto apprezzato di aver dormito in una camera con vista sulla baia di Bantry. Molto buona anche la colazione.
- Jan (10/5): Great 1 night stay with very friendly, accommodating hosts. - We enjoyed our stay here with very welcoming hosts.
This B&B is on a main through road, a little bit out of town, the place is set back from the road, so no road noise.
Our room was of a good size & had a sea view, it was very clean & comfortable with good facilities & a lovely shower room.
Breakfast was excellent. We would definitely recommend Edencrest.
- Denis (9/5): - Charming B&B in a nice location. The welcome was genuinely warm. Excellent nearby restaurants recommended by Josephine. The breakfast (I had the full Irish ;-) ) was generous and delicious. Spacious, very quiet room with extremely comfortable bedding. I recommend it wholeheartedly.
- Hilmar (10/5): Ein richtig schöner Aufenthalt. - Sehr freundliche und angenehme Besitzer. Sehr hilfsbereit und sie standen mit Rat und Tat immer zur Seite. Schöner Blick vom Zimmer zum Wasser. Tolles großes Zimmer im 1. OG, alles sehr sauber und neuwertig. Klasse irisches Frühstück, dazu Käse, Wurst, Obst, Joghurt. Hat großen Spaß in dem Haus gemacht.

- John (9/5): - Jo was an excellent host. Long walk to town and very few places to eat.
- Ciara (9/5): Best Bed and Breakfast we have ever stayed at. - This is a beautiful comfortable bed and breakfast. We were made to feel welcome from the moment of our arrival. The room is just like if not better than a hotel room standard. We drive a fully electric car and we were able to charge our car at this bed and breakfast which was a wonderful added extra.
- antoinette (8/5): Clean comfortable & good location - Super friendly host
- CHRISTINA (9/5): Fabulous b&b in a great setting - A delightful house in a beautiful setting.
The hostess was cheerful and helpful.
Everything was as we expected from the write up.
It was comfortable and clean. Nothing really, the drive was a bit steep, not a complaint just an observation for anyone who has a mobility problem.
- John (10/5): Quite exceptional B&B - Warm greeting and host learnt and remembered our names. Everywhere immaculate.
Room spacious with everything you needed available. USB plug adapter provided. Very large and comfortable bed. Toiletries provided.
Wonderful breakfast with fresh fruit, cereals and cooked breakfast to follow if you wanted.
Probably the best B&B we’ve ever stayed in over many years. Better than a lot of hotels. Nothing to dislike

- Morag (10/5): Homely stay in quiet location but very near town. - Josephine was really lovely and she made our stay very comfortable. Breakfast was glorious. Lots of fresh produce and the poached eggs were perfect. Honey was a nice surprise - the first time it had been offered during our stay in Ireland. The house was very cosy and the bed was extremely comfortable. We asked Josephine to recommend a restaurant which she did and we were not disappointed. We liked everything.
- MICHELA (8/5): Un soggiorno piacevole - Una bella casa sulla collina con vista sulla baia. Una camera accogliente e un bagno molto grande. Letto comodo e quartiere silenzioso. Molto buona la colazione. La mancanza di miscelatore doccia mobile.
- James (9/5): - Clean, comfortable, friendly. Barries breakfast was outstanding. Josephine is a lovely host.
Short drive into Bantry. Nothing to not like.
- Murielle (9/5): -
- Constance (7/5): -
- Ludo & Marina (10/5): Prachtige B&B op wandelafstand van Bantry. - Prachtige B&B, met heel vriendelijke en aangename gastvrouw. Alles was perfect in orde en het was de enige plek tijdens ons verblijf in Ierland waar we nog een 'full Irish breakfast' en andere variëteiten konden bestellen als ontbijt. Wij hadden 2 ruime kamers en op één van de kamers was het bed extra ruim. We hadden spijt dat we hier maar 1 nacht verbleven hebben. -
- John (10/5): A perfect stay! - Lovely hosts, beautifully cared for accomodation and excellent breakfast with the very best of Irish products served. We were especially delighted after a long journey there, to be able to charge our EV on the premises at a normal domestic rate and not to have to pay almost double that rate at a commercial charging station. It was fantastic to have a 100% charge on the car in the morning when we were heading back in the road.
- Alistair (10/5): Very kind,welcoming and helpful.Very well appointed accommodation and excellent breakfasts -
- Phiniju (10/5): Un endroit plein de charme et de tranquillité - Un très beau B & B. L'accueil de Josephine est superbe. Son B&B a beaucoup de charme et jouit d'une vue magnifique sur la mer. Il y règne beaucoup de calme et sérénité. Le petit déjeuner est d'une excellente qualité et très raffiné. Vous pouvez rayonner sur tout le Kerry à partir de cet emplacement. Rien

- Christine (9/5): Loved it - Excellent with a fabulous view!! Nothing
