Fernhill never lets us down. Very friendly & helpful staff. Hotel excellent & very well kept, huge variety of foods for breakfast Goegeous garden & location quiet. Early booking essential with lots of wedding receptions held there.
Staff were amazing, very helpful and friendly. Hotel was beautiful. Everything was very clean and tastefully decorated. Breakfast which came with our room was out of this world! Everything you could want and more! Sitting areas were beautiful, as was the bar lounge area. Large parking area. Overall, just a very relaxing stay.
I would definitely recommend and would stay again if I travel to Ireland in the future!
Really lovely hotel - the best on our trip to Ireland. Beautiful grounds, friendly, helpful staff and delicious food. Dinner was excellent as was breakfast. I highly recommend and would happily visit again. Thank you to everyone at Fernhill!

Lovely cosy atmosphere in the hotel. Very friendly attentive staff. The most delicious food for breakfast and dinner. All around great break in Fernhill House Hotel.
A really lovely hotel and a very relaxing stay. Plenty of space to sit with a drink or book and obviously beautiful gardens to explore. Food was delicious! Staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing.
Fernhill House Hotel & Gardens was a real surprise. I did not expect this level of experience. I booked the stay due to location and availability, but I would book again due to how lovely it was.
Every part of the stay was ideal. The welcome, the room, the food in the restaurant and at breakfast, the service, the setting and surroundings, the decor and their commitment to sustainability.
Nothing was left to chance. The owners and their team have worked hard and given a lot of thought to how they present the property and the service they provide.
Two day business trip, Cork was booked up but so glad we found the Fernhill and Clonakilty. Beautiful Hotel with the best breakfast ever shame Clonakilty called for the evening as I’m sure the restaurant would have been lovely. Very friendly and helpful staff, will be back

Wonderful Hotel!
Amazing! Our stay was perfect from check in, to complimentary drinks, to a clean & comfortable room, to a delicious full breakfast, to the wonderful garden tour. Everyone was genuinely pleasant, kind, & courteous. So far, this was our favorite hotel on our trip to Ireland. Thank you!
My sister and I have just spent 2 most enjoyable 2 nights at the Fernhill Hotel in Clonakilty. Everything was amazing from the warm welcome at Reception, the comfortable bedroom and exceptional food. The breakfast was fabulous and dinner most enjoyable.
The hotel is lovely but the staff are fabulous - everyone was so pleasant and helpful and cheerful. Enormous thank you to you all
Our 2 night stay at Fernhill was fabulous. All the staff were super nice and friendly, The room was clean, spacious and we were welcome with a couple of lovely gifts (chocolate and free drink). The garden is well worth a visit, enjoyed seeing the lights, the plants and all the bees. We also had a drink at the bar and ate of an evening, this was very good and so was the breakfast. Probably our nicest stay away ever. Thanks to all who made it happen at Fernhill.
Beautiful hotel, lovely overnight Summer stay. Room was absolutely gorgeous.. Huge with big bathroom and huge bathtub.
Gardens are stunning, a lovely place for a wedding I would say. Great staff and lots of them around, especially at dinner time. Quick and efficient.
Located just outside the town but on a hill with stunning country views.
Some building work happening at present but I can see the need for extra rooms as it is a stunning location for weddings.. It didn't disrupt our stay.
We will be back to stay again. Lovely hotel.
