We just returned from two weeks in Ireland that included two nights at Stanley House. Everything nice that reviewers say about Stanley House and Nancy Brosnan is true. The house has beautiful views looking out over nearby meadows and beyond to the harbor at Schull. Our room had a harbor view, and you should try to reserve that if you... more

We have just come back from a 3-night stay in Nancy Brosnan's Stanley House. Having been to many hotels, you cannot beat the genuine, warm personal reception from a proud owner. Everything I read in the reviews on Tripadvisor was true. Stanley House is in a great location, overlooking Schull Harbour, with peaceful surrounds and it really does feel like... more

From the moment I arrived to a very warm welcome by Nancy Brosnan I was made to feel at home. I was pleased to find ample safe and spacious parking on site. My en suite room was immaculately clean, warm and comfortable with a lovely view. Everything is thoughtfully arranged with the guest's comfort in mind. All the rooms at... more

Picture a beautiful bungalow on a hill overlooking a picturesque bay that belongs to a wonderful little fishing village with seafood to die for and several pubs that are absolute gems (An Tigin, Hacketts). Then picture inside the bungalow itself with the sunlight beaming in through the conservatory that overlooks a picturesque bay that belongs to a wonderful little fishing... more

We have just booked for our l3th visit to Stanley House, which is in itself the best recommendation. We have toured Southern Ireland extensively but every year we find something new in and around Schull. The view from Stanley House has its own magic with spectacular seascapes. Schull is a quaint and lively town with friendly people and some interesting... more

Clean as a whistle, with a wonderful host – Nancy Brosnan, beautiful grounds and delicious breakfast. Although there was a ‘No Vacancies’ sign hanging at the door, we rang the bell and asked for a room. She did not have any available, just a small one that apparently was used sometimes as a single, that had a trundle bad. She... more

I arrived much earlier than I had estimated and found Nancy cleaning blinds and doing laundry. She apologized for not hearing me come in and offered up tea and homemade soda bread straight away. Stanley House is up the road from the Planetarium in Schull and a short walk to town. I stayed in Room 5 on the first floor... more

This was a lovely place - immaculate, comfortable and every detail was covered. Nancy Brosnan fixed us tea when we arrived and her breakfast was wonderful the next morning. The view of the bay was very pleasant. more

After seeing the photos and reading the reviews, especially those about Nancy Brosnan's faultless service, we had to check it out. Everything was far better than expected, from the room, to the perfect patio, views, food, etc. Nancy was always prepared to help in any way. Her husband, Tom, who owns the grocery store in town, was most helpful, and... more
