About Us

 

• Our History

The Blarney Stone is one of Ireland’s most historic places to visit. But a stay in the Blarney Stone Guesthouse in the heart of Cork city is memorable.
This meticulously timeless Victorian residence built in the 18th century, in which it’s original character has been carefully maintained, is tastefully decorated with Waterford Crystal chandeliers, antique fireplaces, furniture and pictures would be an intriguing place to stay. Attention to detail is second to none.
