United States of AmericaGreat breakfast ... maybe a choice of way eggs cooked could be added.
IrelandGreat stay, lovely accommodating staff. Great breakfast, would recommend to anyone.
IrelandThe B&B far outwayed the price we paid. The location was very central for day trips out. Bridgit & johnny were the best hosts very friendly and helpfull. We would go back again and have already told all our friends and family that it is an excellent place to stay.
IrelandA beautiful B&B run by a lovely couple John and Bridgid in a great location for the town and all its amenities...very comfortable and highly recommended....5☆
IrelandI couldn't recommend this place enough. The owners are so accommodating; I knew I would be arriving early, so Brigid said that my room would be ready, even though it was before check in time. I was staying for a funeral, and on the day of the funeral, Brigid's husband even gave me a lift to where I needed to be. They also allowed me to leave my bags with them until it was time for my flight as it was later in the afternoon. The breakfast was lovely and Brigid cooked whatever I requested and served it at a time that was suitabkle for me. The room was lovely; the bed was very comfortable and the room was cosy - much like you are staying with friends in their house! It was lovely. It is only a short walk into the town where there are lots of shops to have a browse and there are some lovely riverside / woodland country walks as well. Great location.
United KingdomLovely B&B. Brigid & John very accommodating. Brigid even dropped us into town. Breakfast was very good.
United KingdomThe en suite was very spacious. I had a fridge and microwave which was an added bonus. The breakfast was really tasty. My room was outside of the main house so I didn't feel I was disturbing anyone when I came in late.
IrelandVery friendly hosts, could not do enough to please me. Great communications, friendly relaxed atmosphere, great breakfasts, quiet, peaceful and comfortable bed, overall, a great stay.
United KingdomThe owner was so welcoming, offered us tea or coffee on arrival, we asked for taxi number & Bridget the owner drove us to town. Breakfast was fantastic. I highly recommend Jonnys B&B.
