Kells Country House  

Very friendly, lovely room and great house. Location handy just off M18. Much nicer experience than a hotel and not owned by NAMA!! Very much luxury B&B with all the positives of same.

More visible signage at entrance

Everything

We had a fantastic time in ireland... The owners ron and pauline went out of there way to ensure we were comfortable and they also gave us tips and and directions for the remainder of our trip.... They were exceptional hosts.... We loved ruby as well!!!

Pauline and Ron were excellent hosts. Ron told us all about his family lineage (he's a direct decedent of Brian Boru) and even drove us around the area to see Dromoland Castle and a few other sites in the area. The property and the house are absolutely beautiful. (The house looks like a mini castle.) Our room was very large and extremely comfortable. We also enjoyed meeting Ruby, the extremely friendly dog who roams the grounds (outdoors only) and her sidekick Bugsby. Highly recommended if you're in the area. It was our first stop after arriving at Shannon airport; we didn't want to drive too far after an overnight flight and it was only about 15 minutes away.

No complaints at all about Kells Country House. The only thing worth noting is that there is not a lot to do in the immediate area. The B&B is definitely in the countryside--which is lovely--but you'll have to drive to go out to dinner, etc.

We found kells to be welcoming homely with great views and excellent food.

Ron and Pauline were very friendly and helpful. They always asked if there was anything else that they could do for us. The breakfast was delicious, especially Ron's omlette.

I did not like the surprise of having to pay in cash as requested as they were having problems with their bank.

The hosts were fantastic and the House/Castle was amazing. Breakfast was the best I had in Ireland.

beautiful, spacious home in gorgeous countryside, postcard perfect views over green hills and river with horses grazing in the foreground, large, lovely room with upscale linens, delicious breakfast at dining room table allowing for interesting conversation with other guests BUT the very best part of Kells Country House is the astonishing warmth and welcome we received from the owners. Ron and Pauline set the highest standard for B&B ownership. While in their home, we were not customers, clients, or guests. We were their friends. The result is that they now have an open invitation to stay with us at our US vacation home any time they come "across the pond."

There is nothing not to like. Oh, upon our departure they declined to part with their wonderful dog, Ruby, who reclined on her back in the driveway with paws pedaling in the air, waiting to be scratched. We promised to treat her well and send them photos with regular updates, but negotiations stalled at that point! (If you're reading this, Ron and Pauline, give Ruby a good scratch from us!) : )

Everything was 5star!! Ron collected us to show the way and took us for a bite and a pint in the evening as part of 'the service' . The breakfast was delicious and the room very large and comfy. The view across the lawn towards the river was awesome! A real country retreat! Thanks Pauline and Ron for a great stay in your lovely home!

Not even one thing to mention here! We recommend everyone to stay here!

Pauline and Ron are the most cordial helpful and fun hosts. The rooms are beautiful. The linens and puffs on the bed are wonderful. The food is very good. The house itself and the area are superb.

The peace and tranquility of this stunning and beautiful hotel. It has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It was a wonderful experience and would highly recommend to everyone.

Pauline was very warm and welcoming into her house. The views around the property are wonderful! The rooms are very clean and updated. And, the location to the airport was terrific. A wonderful experience.

The excellent: Atmosphere created by the owners; Breakfast; Spacious and clean bedrooms/bathroom. (Powered shower was great); Setting/location; Value for money.

I loved the look of the place and location. Stunning home and amazing views. The breakfast was fantastic as well!

Very good i will come again the dogs are very friendly the wi fi must be better in the room

Friendly, helpful, excellent breakfast, very comfortable

Proprietors Ron and Pauline are exceptional in their professional service to their guests. Attention to detail is of the highest order and nothing is left to chance. All rooms are exquisitely finished with one room, particularly welcoming and rewarding. Ron was very accommodating in offering to drive us to different venues and offering to collect us later. If you have reason to stay in this area of the Burren and explore Dromoland and Bunratty Castle and the Bunratty Folk Park , don't miss out on the opportunity to sojourn here. You will find it, if you count twenty houses on your right after the Trading Post . It has Kells written on a black plint.

Fine attention to detail and staff who will go the extra mile to ensure your stay is the best it can be, wonderful house and surroundings perfect for a stay away from the rat race, fanastic breakfast.

This place deserves it's high rating. - 10.0 This was, by far, the nicest b&b we stayed at in our 2 weeks in Ireland.

Extremly warm and friendly host's, a beautifull building set in wonderfull quiet grounds with immaculate rooms, my wife and I spent just one evening in the Kells but discovered a hidden gem in Ireland, we shall return!!.

Ron and Pauline are wonderful hosts and very entertaining! They are so welcoming and inviting and made us feel at home. We hope to see them again someday.

Quiet, great hosts, close to Shannon airport.

Well, of course the owners were great. They gave us very good information on day trips around County Claire. Their home was very unique and very comfortable. The view from the house was amazing. Even though The Kells house seemed a little remote at first, it was very close to the main motor way.

We liked everything about it.

Everything! Traveling with our three grown children and son-in-law to Ireland for a week, we definitely wanted to stay at a bed and breakfast to experience life in the Irish countryside. Ron and Paulline were so accommodating and such wonderful people. They assisted us with finding our way to Cliffs of Moher and Galway, gave recommendations for eating establishments, as well as made reservations for our sons to play golf at Dromoland. The rooms were very nice and the showers were amazing!! We enjoyed having an 'Irish home' at the the end of the long day where we could kick back, play cards and enjoy the other guests. Each morning we had a breakfast selection to jump start our day. We booked Kells Country House hoping it would be a nice place to stay, and we were completely satisfied with our experience. We would definitely recommend it and would like to visit again!

Our stay at Kells Country House was perfect. The owners Ron and Pauline were gracious hosts that made us feel welcome in their home. Ron went out of his way to show us his home and entertain our 13 year old son. We walked the grounds of their property (w/ great views) with their friendly dog Ruby. Would definitely recommend this place to friends!

The only negative part was finding the house. It is set behind another house on the main road, just look out for a small, black & white sign post marked "Kells."
