This beautiful elegant property was built in the 19th Century as a private residence by a wealthy merchant family.
During the 1920's Christian Brothers resided here for more than 40 years. Since the brothers departed in the 1960's it has been used exclusively as a Guest House / Bed & Breakfast.

With its elevated position, Gabriel House looks out over Cork’s cathedral spires and the harbour. A 5-minute walk from the centre, the house is surrounded by landscaped gardens, offering en suite rooms and free WiFi.

Most rooms at Gabriel House Guesthouse boast stunning views of the garden and countryside. Rooms all feature TVs. All guests have access to filtered water and fresh ice available from reception.

Dating from the early 1900s, Gabriel House features 10-feet-high ceilings, a characteristic staircase and many original features. Guests can relax in the garden and patio to the rear of the property, while helpful staff can provide city maps and recommendations for trips or restaurants.

Guests can pick out freshly laid eggs for breakfast each morning from the house’s own resident hens. A traditional Irish breakfast is served daily and made from local ingredients, while breads, biscuits scones are freshly home-baked every day.

Kent Train Station is 200 metres from the bed and breakfast and Cork Airport is a 15-minute drive. The Blarney Stone is just 5 miles away, and Kinsale is 30 minutes’ drive away.
