Located in the fishing village of Baltimore amid spectacular scenery and unspoiled nature, Rolfs Country House overlooks Roaringwaterbay with magnificent views of Carbery’s hundred isles. Situated along the most southern west cork coast, Rolfs lies amid some of Ireland’s most spectacular scenery.

The almost subtropical climate of the region is due to the effect of the Gulf-stream sweeping in from the Atlantic, influencing plant and marine life making this a paradise for gardeners and water sports enthusiasts alike.  We look forward to welcoming you, your family and friends!

Rolfs Country House & Restaurant

The private dining room at Rolfs is available for that special occasion.   Located on the mezzanine level, it is the perfect location for an intimate evening with friends & family or to host your own private function.  Set menus are available on request and there is also the option of our full a la carte menu.
