We stayed here for two nights and wished we could have stayed longer. Chris was a fantastic host, offering us tea and homemade scones on arrival. She went above... read more and beyond for us on our trip. The room was very spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. The breakfast was huge and very tasty! Chris has a wealth of knowledge about walks etc to do in the area. I'd highly recommend staying here and using it as a base to explore Kinnity and the many hikes and bike routes around here in the Slieve Bloom Mountains.
However: cleanliness in parts was not the best - shower flooded due to the amount of hair in the drain and the water bottle lid was covered in black mould.
The room was very good in terms of value, but (and I say this hesitantly given the rather cutting replies to any critical reviews), our welcome was not particularly warm. We had emailed the host prior to booking to confirm that we would be arriving half an hour later than the 7pm check in cutoff and were assured it was fine; however we received a phone call asking for our ETA (not sure if this email had been forgotten as sent several months prior). However upon arrival the host seemed quite hassled with us.
We were also pressured several times to pay in cash which we were not comfortable with. We were chastised as the card payment app “takes a percentage” and told to drive to Birr (a 30 minute round-trip) to get cash out. We refused and felt this put a dampener on the trip.
One more thing (which may be personal preference) but we locked our bedroom, and whilst we were out, someone came in to make the bed. I think it would be a nice touch to check before entering a locked bedroom (eg in hotels you can put a housekeeping request on the doorknob).
I’d say for the price paid the venue was fine, but I did not feel particularly welcome during my stay. More
A highlight was tea and scones served on the lawn on arrival and a warm welcome from Chris. Home-cooked breakfast was delicious especially the homemade brown bread - all much better than mass-produced hotel fare.
Probably the best B&B we've stayed in so we will definitely be back, hopefully for longer next time..
