I only stayed one night but room was comfortable and clean enough. Bit old fasioned but what you would expect from a farmhouse. Would have appreciated more toiletrues in the room due to restructions in hand luggage on flights these days. Also i dudnt have time for breakfast as its not served till 8am and i needed to leave early for my drive back to dublin

Beautiful and quiet farm with the hills behind and a very short walk to the pub for a meal and a pint. Great breakfast but most amazing was the cows in pasture in the front on the property. Very friendly staff ( and cows) and beautiful comfortable room.

Solo trip in Ireland.

The location was great - walking distance to the restaurant and was very quiet. The owner let me check in early so I could do some work and gave some great tips on things to do. The bed was a bit uncomfortable and funky eggs for breakfast but overall a decent stay.

What a quaint little place. The location near the Ring of Kerry was convenient but definitely away from town (which we were fine with). Breakfast was nice and they were accommodating because we were hoping to get an early start. They were good about getting back to us through texting. It is an older B&B but just what we needed.
