I was welcomed with a lovely chat over tea and a scone by the innkeeper Rosaleen O'Leary! I really appreciated her taking time to get to know me and share her thoughts on Irish history and culture. My room was good sized, appealing and a great value. Showers were hot with good water pressure. The gardens on the property were just gorgeous - imagine Secret Garden type plantings. My stay included a complete hot Irish breakfast with lots of coffee, eggs and Irish bacon - similar to a fried ham. Mmmm. I enjoyed a morning walk down the road to Ross Castle, which I highly recommend. Who knew the advancements in medieval architecture and defense? Ross Castle Lodge B&B is adjacent to the Killarney National Park, and one may walk through the park to get to the 'town' of Killarney where you'll find lots of restaurants, pubs & shops. Booking was easy via email. Walkable distance to town and the train station - but a cab is easier for arrivals!

They gave us great recommendations and also drove us to the bus station when we had to leave. Killarney was amazing! It was our favorite city in Ireland and we would love to go back.

Enough to accommodate for three adults. All the rooms are en suite with its own toilet and shower. The wifi works throughout the house and very well in the guest rooms. The breakfast was delicious and I feel that I left satisfied. Props on the coffee. It was really really good. It is in a well placed central location just as the website promises. It is also a stones throw away from a pub and a Lidl.

A young man, Robert, owns the B&B and does an excellent job making it and you feel at home. The room we had was nice and clean, with its own bathroom, and the bed was very comfortable. The location is great, walking distance to everything (though Dingle is not a very large town). On the second day we were there, while my husband was golfing and I was trying to decide what to do, Robert made up a pot of coffee with cookies and pastries and sat with me for a bit just to chat and relax. He also helped us with which pubs were "authentic" and gave us some recommendations on restaurants. The breakfast was fantastic, though I cannot finish a full Irish breakfast to save my life, and the coffee was perfect. We intend to return to Dingle (as it was our favorite place in Ireland) and will definitely stay at this B&B again.

It's just outside the small village of Banteer, and around 17km west of the town of Mallow in north Co. Cork. Agherton Lodge is a 2-storey detached house in a very striking setting, so much so that you feel like you're the lord or lady of the manner staying in this environment, in a pleasant ranch-like way. A really nice lady who was originally from the north welcomed us the early evening we arrived, and she very kindly laid us out tea, coffee & biscuits in the open plan front room, which was much appreciated. There were spacious solid wood floors throughout, (good for my asthma), it all looked both spotlessly clean & new, as well as warm & inviting. There were 4 of us, 1 woman, 3 blokes, staying in 3 rooms. Our 'boss' and only girl each had spacious double rooms to themselves, I shared an equally spacious twin room with the other guy. It was €35 each, which I felt was very good for this standard of accommodation. The bedrooms were fantastic, bright, breezy & cheerful, all with ensuite. The doubles have a lovely indulgent looking bath. Jo was so impressed she photographed hers! The beds, even the singles were blissfully comfortable. My room had a superb south facing view of fields, trees & rolling hills in the background and horses,(very frisky horses), in the foreground, with big french windows that opened onto a balcony. It was just so lovely & peaceful standing on the balcony & watching the horses frolic around, on a lovely mild evening in October, and relaxed me completely before a show I was doing at the nearby Glen Theatre. After a bit of a drink with the generous guys at The Glen, the B&B was equally welcoming at night. It was quiet season I should stress, and it was just us 4 in residence, but bearing in that the mind the couple running it had a son, & a very friendly dog, we were given loads of space, and truly felt it was ours! Breakfast next morning was to an equally high standard, and generous. I always love places that don't seem like guesthouses but places that you feel, well at home in, and we all definitely felt at home here. Real 5 star quality, and a lovely place to base yourself if you want to explore Cork & Kerry by car.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

The lodge was sparkling clean, nicely furnished, quiet, and in a very convenient location, just off of the main city centre (just a couple minutes away). And breakfast was SUPERB!!! Definitely the best breakfast we had while in Ireland, we traveled all over. The staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome and make sure we had what we needed, even taking care of our laundry. Our stay was comfortable, homey, and pampered, and I would definitely stay here again!!! We were on our honeymoon, but I think this would be a great place for families to stay, too.

They truly made you feel comfortable and right at home. Frank was even kind enough to drive us to the center of town one evening. The house is beautiful, located right on the Kenmare Golf Course with a great patio you can sit out and enjoy on sunny days. Our room was perfect-spacious, bed comfy and bathroom meticulously clean. Breakfast was delicious and coffee nice & strong(the way I like!). The location of the B&B is ideal- a quick 10-15 minute walk to the center of town where there are ample delicious restaurants/good pubs. Staying in Kenmare is also a great spot to visit the Ring of Kerry and the Beara Peninsula- of which we visited both during our stay. I cannot say enough great things about The Old Church B&B and would stay here again in a heartbeat. It was one of my favorite B&B's during our two week Wild Atlantic Way road trip.

Upon arrival, we were greeted with coffee and tea (and with puppy snuggles from Roma!); Mary was also quick to give us a short orientation of where we were located, recommended hikes in the national park and more. She was also incredibly helpful in helping us get reservations for our grandmother's 80th birthday. (Including recommendations on where to get a cake and balloons in town!) The location itself is fantastic - you can walk to a few short hikes - and you're only a short drive from some of the more popular hikes in Killarney National park. Then, you're only five or so minutes from downtown Killarney and a variety of restaurants, pubs, and entertainment. The rooms were clean and large! I don't know what sheets they use, but they were so comfortable and soft. They cleaned the rooms once a day. The breakfast was absolutely delicious! First, there is always a cold buffet - with granola, cereal, various fruits and pastries. The scones and jam were my absolute favorite! Then, there is also a hot menu to order from, which includes a full Irish breakfast, crepes, banana fritters, and more. We were the only people staying, so they didn't have an issue with us monopolizing the sitting room late at night, playing games and enjoying drinks. Overall, fantastic service, an adorable place, and a wonderful stay!

John took the time to tell us about all of our options while in Killarney, and his suggestion for the day trip to Gap of Dunloe ended up being my favorite part of our trip! Breakfast was delicious, and Bridget, the waitress, was very helpful in providing us directions. The location is a little off the beaten path, not really walking distance to bars and restaurants but only a 5 min drive. I personally loved how quiet it was, and the views are amazing! My only small complaint is that the room felt a little damp, probably because of the weather.

The minute you swing open the heavy wooden door, and step into the dramatic entryway, you are practically transported to Ireland in the1800's. We arrived to meet our charming host Eileen, an absolute sweetheart who bent over backwards to make our stay inviting and memorable! Our room was perfect: clean, cozy, and homey. There was a hair drier, coffee and tea service in the room, and wi-fi (though somewhat spotty and slow reception). The parlor down stairs is stunning to behold: richly upholstered chairs and couches, antique curios, old paintings on an elegant backdrop of period wallpapering. It is an absolutely classic Victorian Irish home. The b&b is only a brisk 10 minute walk to the breathtaking Kilarney National Park and a small bike rental shop, and a quick cab ride away from the downtown area. Unfortunately, our train was rather early in the morning, and while Eileen did her best to get us a little breakfast (mind you, while waiting on 5 other tables in her fabulous dining room) we simply did not have enough time to enjoy her full Irish breakfast. She efficiently brought out our coffee (one pot caffeinated, one decaffeinated for my cousin) Irish porridge, toast and rolls, and delicious berry pancakes before we were whisked aware by our taxi.
