Our room was clean and overlooked the pasture area. Was very quiet and there were restaurants within walking distance. Nice views. Staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good.

Quirky farmhouse in the country. Convenient to both Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula. Not for someone who wants modern look.

Breakfast was delicious and a great start to our day! It was nice to talk to the proprietor about what to take in on our visit and helped to hear the local perspective. As a result, we made a detour to our plans to see the Dingle peninsula instead of Blarney castle and it ended up being my favorite part of the whole vacation! We also thoroughly enjoyed the short walk to the Anvil for dinner and a pint each night!

Very well appointed! 2 night stands with lights, 2 luggage racks, little closet to hang clothing, and counter space in bathroom for toiletries. It was a very comfortable stay! And there was a little heater in the room that worked well to take the chill off. Good food, and friendly proprietor.

The family that runs this lovely establishment went above and beyond to see to my mom's comfort.

The place is quiet and nice. The hosts are friendly and the breakfast was great!

Great breakfast. Friendly staff. Ample parking. Beautiful and quiet setting.

Breakfast was outstanding. Everything at the house was wonderful. Very friendly and attentive to our needs.

Location was cool. Bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was good.

Everything was wonderful! This was the softest and most comfortable bed I slept in on our entire trip! The breakfast was delicious and very filling! Everyone was lovely and very helpful! We took a nice walk up the street to see the animals in the field.

the property is in the family for generations, there has been ongoing renovations since 2013. It is a working farm, it is situated at the foot of sleeve mish mountain
I have been doing bed& breakfast for over 40 years, I have seen a lot of changes in the industry since then,.i like meeting people
we are in a quiet area, there is a new hill walk just by our house, it is called "uphill/downhill" one can walk down by the quay and walk along the edge of the river, then a lovely walk up to slieve mish mountain and down by the house, really nice
