This a beautiful Guesthouse in a fantastic stunning location over looking Caragh Lake near killlorglin. this really is a country retreat where you can get away from it all. The food here is to die for and that manner in which it is presented is just wonderful. Breakfast is the same. The owners are very hands on and very warm... More

Incredibly lovely! Owners are your hosts. Great value as we had massages, dinners and breakfasts included. There is no bar/tap so you must travel for your pint. There are cocktails, wine and canned beer available but not a pub to hang out. More

Frank is a star. He is on hand from the excellent breafast served in a dining room that has superb vista over the lake until the excellent dinner (served in the same dining room) is over. It is an excellent centre from which to exp[lore the Rings of Kerry/Skellig and Beara knowing that there is a welcome glass of wine... More

Our room was comfortable, the hosts were pleasant and very helpful, and the food was fine. A really special place to stay when traveling in Ireland. More

The personal touch provided by Frank and Mary was so welcome compared to the so called 5 star hotels. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about this establishment - it's more than a hotel! Keep up the goodl work Frank and Mary. Up the Kingdom! More

Stayed for a long weekend in the hotel which is nestled beside Caragh Lake. Frank, the owner and Mary his wife as well as their magnificent panoply of staff made this a memorable visit. Of particular note is the cooking in the dining room. Superb. Also the staff were extremely solicitous of specific dietary requirements. The bedrooms facing the lake... More

A warm welcome, the secluded setting, the sense of tranquility and quiet comfort pervading the whole property - right away we felt like wanting to stay longer. The attention by the owners and staff is very personal without ever being intrusive. The rooms are generous and well appointed and provide a spectacular view of the adjacent lake. And the restaurant... More

An interesting country house with a number of comfortable reception lounges, well-stocked with books and a stunning setting, over-looking a beautiful lake, close to the main route around the Ring of Kerry. Persuaded by some rave reviews we booked a two night BB package with dinner one night. Our expectations were knocked with the so-called superior room we had paid... More

Exceeding all expectations (but not without a bit of the upstairs/downstairs maneuvering common the “Country Hotels”), the Carrig House is a gem, accentuated by an owner/manager who more than cares. Located down a country lane (of Irish narrowness), it’s not a place for visitors without cars, but is super convenient to both of the area’s prime tourist attractions, the Ring... More
