to get started.

Brian was a friendly host who made us a great breakfast, and we had fun playing fetch with the dog. The town is a short walk with a lovely horse pasture on the way.

Lovely people,,,clean and comfortable place to stay....

Seamus

A very comfortable B&B with a large family room that accommodated us very nicely. Being in the village of Shannonbridge it is an easy drive to the very historical site of Clonmacnoise, founded by St. Ciaran (Kieran).

Randall

United States of America

The house is very bright and airy and clean. The breakfast was delicious and had plenty of options. Brian (our host ) was very friendly, and finally a few great puns are within. A five minute walk.

Kimberly

United States of America

Our airline lost our luggage. We needed to stay an extra day to ensure that we would get the pieces. Staff was amazing at accommodating us. Then we locked our keys in the car and struggled to use our phone to contact AA. Staff used their personal mobile phone to call and make accommodations. So amazing. They were absolutely amazing and great hosts. Can't say enough. Food was great too. Rooms were awesome.

Brian

United States of America

Very clean and friendly hosts. Unfortunately, we couldn’t stay for breakfast as we needed to be off early

Esther

United States of America

The house was a fantastic property, very clean, very comfortable and a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The owner was fantastic and very helpful and had no problem with an early breakfast as my wife was competing in a marathon that day and also had no issue with a late arrival (Due to travel after work). Overall, a very very enjoyable stay. I would recommend Ely House to anyone.

Great location, within walking distance to Killeens and Lukers Bar (must see the “old pub”). Staff was friendly and accommodating. Rooms were cozy and breakfast was delicious! Would highly recommend staying here!

Everything was great!
Loved everything! Owners and staff were very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. Accommodations were very comfortable and clean and included a private bathroom. Food was top notch and there was a great selection! Since a "continental" breakfast was included, we expected only tea/coffee and a baked good of some kind but were also served bacon and eggs if we wanted them. The owners and staff were a great help to us in finding the locations we wanted to visit and had lots of other helpful advice. They took phone calls for us and helped us get in touch with people who were knowledgeable about the area. A wonderful home away from home centrally located in a quiet and traditional small village in the midlands. Great option for family or friends traveling together as several rooms had multiple beds.

You can hear other guests if talking loudly but not an issue at night, we were able to sleep peacefully all night.
The house is beautiful, cozy, warm and spacious. Hosts are super welcoming and friendly. Breakfast is generous. Close to the Clonmacnoise site, one of Ireland's most interesting historical landmark. Strongly recommend staying here.

This is an excellent B and B. We have stayed there on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed. Top class and friendly host. Very convenient to significant midland attractions, be it the river or places of historical interest. The premises are on the edge of the village of Shannonbridge, and this is most convenient if one wishes to have a few drinks in the local pups.
