    first of all the view on the harbor during sunset is amazing -- the armchair was very comfy and I've spend quite some time sitting there and reading; the provided tea (coffee was also available) and real milk AND cookies made my evening...

    The owner was very welcoming and kind. Rathmore House is situated in one of my favourite parts of Ireland, with beautiful scenery around. I have visited Baltimore before but we stayed elsewhere but this was a very pleasant stay this time.
