Just returned to the UK after 4 great nights at Ardmore Court House. The house is beautifully decorated with great rooms and an amazing garden. Chris is a fabulous host... read more who made our stay so enjoyable with her hospitality, local knowledge and great sense of humour. We enjoyed amazing breakfasts every morning. The local area too has so much to offer to walkers cyclists and traditional music lovers. Loved it,

  The owner is helpful and kind. This is not the place to come if you expect luxury and a grand abbey or manor. The home is well kept, the food... read more is good, and the home is in a convenient location. We stayed one night.
Pros:
Price
Location
Comfortable sleep
Food
Cons:
She's a stickler for 4:00 arrival, sent us away at 3:42 pm, and told us to return at 4:00 pm. We had been traveling for 4 hours at that point. So, arrive after 4:00 to be sure.
Bathrooms and showers are small
No hot water upon arrival, then we had no water during the husband's shower the next day

  I think like a lot of people in Ireland we had forgotten about the charm of bed and breakfasts for breaks in Ireland. After a very disappointing stay in a... read more notable nearby hotel we decamped to this wonderful guesthouse. What we had probably forgotten was the human touch, from the scones and coffee and tea on our early arrival to the local knowledge and directions that saved us many a detour. It’s a beautiful setting apparently the house was built by the former Lords of what is now called Kinnitty Castle for their GP. Beautiful gardens, beautiful view and a wonderful tasty breakfast in a room with a view. Chris was an excellent hostess, book with confidence. More

  House was lovely. Very clean and beautifully restored. However, the host was a bit cranky. From our first interaction with unnecessary comments about the luggage to knocking on our door... read more in the morning and scolding us for being 2 minutes late to breakfast, interactions with the host were disappointing. Breakfast times were dictated to our group rather than offered. For being a hospitality professional, the warmth and welcome was lacking.

  I stayed here overnight for an adventure race in the village. I had a warm Irish welcome on arrival with a cup of tea and a wee cake. ... read more Christina was a font of knowledge for the local area and suggested a local place to eat. My room was spotlessly clean and I had a great peaceful nights sleep. Breakfast was included and all freshly cooked. I had the porridge which was fab. Ardmore Country House is a perfect base for those wishing to explore the local area and I’d be delighted to have the opportunity to return and stay here again. Thanks Christina !

  I had a wonderful stay here for a friend's wedding at nearby Kinnitty Castle. Chris made me feel very welcome and my room was super clean, comfortable and quiet. The... read more shower was absolutely amazing - as was the breakfast!

  My husband and I loved our stay at the Ardmore. Chris was an amazing hostess! She greeted us warmly and had a fire waiting for us in the sitting room.... read more She also helped us with our dinner plans. She even walked down to the local pubs and called the nearby castle on our behalf. Our room was clean and comfortable with a peaceful view. We enjoyed dinner at the castle and met wonderful people in the pub a short walk from the home. Chris made us a tasty breakfast the following morning that we enjoyed with a view of the garden. The Ardmore is a beautiful home! Our stay with Chris was by far our favorite during our time in Ireland. We will definitely be back! More

  Myself and 2 friends stayed 6 days in this lovely home. We were impressed the moment we arrived. Our room was roomy, even with 3 beds, lovely antiques, beds and... read more pillows were super comfy, and I am picky! The host, Chris,is so welcoming and agreeable, and a wonderful cook. Breakfast was delightful, homemade scones, bread, jams and each dish we tried was perfect. An easy walk to Catholic Church, Post offce, pub, just a lovely village. Chris is very knowledgeable about the area and made great recommendations for us. We used this as a base and drove all over Ireland from here each day. We felt it was a great central location. We will definitely stay here again when we go to Ireland next time. We were upstairs with beautiful views of the mountains in this lovely rural setting. Thanks again to Chris for our memorable first stay in Ireland!!

  Fabulous spot in the heart of Kinnitty. Loved our bright spacious and comfortable bedroom. Chris is a first class host with lots of tips and info on walks and sights... read more in the Slieve Blooms.
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..

  From the start Chris was very welcoming and helpful. She made us tea and rang a local restaurant for us as it was near closing time. There was a sitting... read more room where we could relax to watch TV. Throughout she gave us plenty of tips about what to see and do and made sure we had everything we needed. A very pleasant welcoming stay in a gorgeous house and surroundings.

This is a perfect location to go hiking, biking and drives around the mountains. Birr is just a short 15 min drive away. I'd highly recommend the Riverside restaurant for dinner.

  This was our fourth and final B & B and by far the best! Chris is the definition of a hostess. She welcomes you into her home and offers you... read more tea or coffee. She shows you your room and tells you she will light a fire downstairs so you can drink your wine by it.
The bedroom was a giant hug! The fluffy bed smelled slightly of lavender Her breakfast is fresh off the farm or at least it tastes like it is. I could fan girl all day about this place.
Thank you, Chris! More

  First of all, Chris our hostess was awesome!
She steered us in the right direction for sights we would be interested in and not too far away. The breakfasts are... read more HUGE and delicious!! The cheese scones are a must!
I highly recommend the B&B! We were there for 3 nights and had a wonderful visit.

  Recently stayed with Chris in her beautiful b&b while attending a nearby wedding. So friendly & accommodating. House and rooms were beautiful, bed very comfortable and water pressure in shower... read more was amazing. Excellent breakfast also.

  Ardmore house is a beautiful old country house. Chris, the landlady was an excellent host. Lovely fresh cooked breakfast. A stones throw from the pubs and cafes in Kinnity village.... read more Great walking trails in the Slieve Bloom mountains- a hidden gem.
