Amazing - ideal location & scenery.
This is an amazing little b&b set in the most wonderful countryside. The personalised service is outstanding and no problem is too big or small. The room was very comfortable with all the expected amenities. Thank you - I will definitely stay again.

We felt the room was only suitable as a single we would not have been able to bring in our suitcases in luckily we were only staying overnight and were able to manage. Also the bedside lamp nearest the door had no light bulb something I only found out when I was ready for bed.

Poor Housekeeping
The first day there was no heat and we were unable to find anyone to turn it on. The entire building was cold including our room. Our sheets were not changed the entire time we were there eventhoug they needed it. The bathroom was not cleaned the entire stay. All that was done as far as houskeeping is to make the bed and replenish coffee cups.

Lovely place within walking distance of the beautiful village of Kerry, yet also remote enough to feel as if you're completely awY from humanity. Used as a base for walking and visiting landmarks it was perfect. Paul is a great host and I'd recommend the breakfasts.

A nice country hotel. We stayed in a four poster bed room which was very comfortable. Breakfast was a bit expensive for what it was, but it was tasty. Service was fine.

A nice property in a peaceful place
This property has been refurbished in recent times but it has not lost its charm. We had a beautiful room with two windows looking out on a lawn and gardens. You would need a car to get to this property as it is up a mile long avenue. They do not serve evening meals so Michelle suggested a nearby pub. There was a tennis court for any one who is interested and a pool table. We enjoyed our stay in this quiet surroundings and you woukd no,t be disappointed.
