"Claragh B&B is a charming country home ideally situated in a scenic, rural setting just outside the town of Blarney in County Cork. A short drive from the town centre and the famed Blarney Castle, home of the legendary Blarney Stone, this B&B is a veritable gateway to many of the area’s most striking sights. Guests will receive a warm welcome from their host who is more than happy to share her knowledge and love of the area she deems “magical.” This lovely, non-smoking home features spacious ensuite guestrooms with TV, complimentary WiFi Internet access, electric blankets, and tea and/or coffee making facilities. All rooms are ground level, allowing guests easy access to both the guest lounge and dining area. A private car park and garden are available for guest use, and upon arrival, visitors will be treated to a complimentary hospitality tray that features delicious home-baked delicacies. This B&B offers guests close access to nearby Cork City, the Gaol Heritage Centre, Fota Wildlife Park, and the charming seaport town of Cobh as well. The countryside surrounding Claragh B&B is ideal for both short and long strolls, and visitors will find much to entertain themselves in and around the immediate area. The town of Blarney is well-known for its many and varied pubs and restaurants, most of which are only a short drive from the B&B. In addition, guests can pass the time in the famous Blarney Woollen Mills, a 30,000 square foot retail store housed in one of Ireland’s oldest and most authentic woollen mills."
