Living in an island house was an unforgettable experience! At the entrance to the island, there's a medieval castle, and the bridge that leads onto the island is surrounded by water—at high tide, it feels truly magical! We were greeted near the house by the friendly dog, Roxy. The homeowners were exceptionally welcoming and attentive. For breakfast, we were invited to the dining room, where the tables were elegantly set. We were impressed by the beautiful china set and delicious homemade Irish breakfast. We hope to return on this charming island, where the delightful Roxy will be there to welcome us again.

For me was the location with a view of a ruined castle a short walk away which to my surprise had been made safe and you could climb the stairs 6 floors for a great view of the area. The host was a very friendly man who made sure you had a comfortable stay. the room was large with onsuite with everything you needed and a lovely view. A superb breakfast in the morning and I felt very welcome all the time. The only regret was that it was a one night stay as I was touring the whole of Ireland definitely a place for a long stay. I'm rating this as high as I can 10 out 10 plus first class accommodation and very good value.

Setting was superb. 4 course (set) meal was offered for an additional fee, which we took advantage of avoiding having to leave the property with its beautiful surroundings. Enjoyed walking (minutes) to the other side of the island to the Shannon. Sat out in the family garden next to the pond enjoying (own) drink, as did other guests through the course of the evening. Enjoyed company of the cattle who you were the quietest known. Visited the castle ruin in the morning (10am-4pm secured and free) which was lovely before driving on.

N/a - homely and friendly which was perfect for us. Would stay again.

The location was very beautiful and it was great to be able to step outside and take a walk in such a post-card setting. The castle ruins next door were not open during our stay, but it's another nice amenity. Our host was absolutely great and gave us some excellent advice on a route for our day trip that turned out to be one of the high points of our vacation.

We like to be able to walk to our evening meal and it was a fifteen minute drive to find a restaurant, but hey, you can rarely have natural settings and restaurants in the same space.

The house is in a peaceful and stunning location about two miles from Ballylongford. The hosts are very friendly and have run their business for thirty years. The home is not as modern as some other b+bs, but my bed was very comfortable, and I thoroughly enjoyed my breakfast.

No real issues for me. I do like a kettle in my room to make drinks, but I have been staying at a number of other b+bs with no kettle too.

Breakfast was very good. We chose the full Irish breakfast and it was delicious. The castle ruins near the house were amazing. Great fun to explore and it was truly incredible to see them before and after high tide. Unfortunately, This site could only support a picture of the staircase inside the castle ruin, but it is truly sight to see. Garret and Patricia are delightful hosts who strive to make your stay a pleasure. And as the official greeter, Roxy does her best to welcome every guest. That little tail never stops wagging. She is so sweet!

The owners were wonderful and made the stay very enjoyable. Lovely wee dog, too, Roxie. Breakfasts were good, with the option of cereals & yoghurt as well as the full fry. No view to speak of from my room at the rear of the house, but the immediate vicinity is fantastic and the causeway approach adds to the sense of welcome isolation. I really enjoyed the walks around the island, and visiting the nearby Abbey outside of Ballylongford, as well as Listowel, Ballybunion Beach, etc.

The decor could do with a bit of updating but this really isn't a priority for me.

Garrett, Patricia and Sam were great hosts who rang extra miles to make our stay worthwhile. Loved the food and coffee. Great views. Good facilities. The village is remote, exactly what we wanted to have a chilled relax time away from busy roads and crowds. You hardly see any vehicles or even people. Great to see so chilled and pleasant the villagers who live simple lives. Anyway in overall it's a great stay and we hope to visit again. Thanks very much for great hospitality ❤️

Our hosts Patricia and Garret were very kind, welcoming, polite and hard working to make us feel home. The bedroom was spotless clean, comfortable, and with a breathtaking view of the castle. We had dinner at the property, if you have the chance, do have it too. Simple homemade food, very fresh and off course delicious. Breakfast was like the cherry on top, traditional and really good. It keeped us for most of the day. This place is a hidden gem.

Nothing. Would definitely stay over again when travelling to North Kerry.

This is a lovely place to spend the night! The host is super friendly and made us a delicious Irish breakfast with fresh orange juice, he even let us choose the time we wanted it served. The funny little dog (who put his nose in the dirt and didn't want it to be cleaned) followed us around the island during our morning walk while we watched the beautiful sunrise. Only one word is needed to describe this place: Grand!
