We've traveled with my wife for a whole week in Donegal and were on our way back to Dublin. We decided to visit Clonmacnoise at our last day and just stay somewhere for a night. We've just drived in a yard of the B&B and knocked the door to get a bed and some rest before the last drive. Instead... More

We had no idea what a treat we were in for when we signed up for the evening meal at Kajon. John spent 30 years owning and running fine restaurants and loves to show off his skills, to his guests delight. No exaggeration to say that we would drive there just for the meal. This is not to in any... More

It's a good thing we didn't stay at John and Kate's place the first night of our trip, because we would have stayed the whole week!!!! Thank you for all the laughter, the nice and generous treats, the wonderful meals and the lovely room with a great bed. If you're planning to visit Clonmacnoise this is the place to stay!... More

It's nice to be greeted by such friendly people, with a wonderful sense of humor. We were welcomed with homemade cake and coffee. After being shown how to avoid another "tourist trap" we were served the best lamb chop dinner, which was prepared with love. We had a nice night in good beds, and woke up to a lovely breakfast....

We stayed 19 April - 20 April 2013. All of the previous reviews are dead on - these are two amazing people who have a B&B in a wonderful location. The welcome was fantastic (we even arrived several hours early) and we felt so welcome that by the end of our quick visit we left wishing we had more time... More

I was there with my father in April 2013 and it was reall wonderful. Kate and John are so friendly and they gave us a really great welcome with fresh scones and tea and coffee. In the evening they cooked a delicious meal and the room was very beautiful and perfectly clean. Also, das ganze auch gerne noch auf deutsch:... More

Kajon House is close to the Clonmacnoise Abbey site. The hosts Catherine & John provided a very homely environment. We were welcomed with scones and coffee & departed with a gift of Catherine' superb home made scones. The room was well appointed and the bathroom quite adequate, although a little constrained. The Irish breakfast was excellent and very well presented.... More

We spent only one night at Kajonhouse, but even if so short, our stay was unforgettable! Our hosts were the kindest hosts ever, the room was very comfortable, with a magnificent bed heated by an electrical blanket (a blessing indeed after a day spent outside, in the cold), and the breakfast we had the day after was... unbelievable! Best breakfast... More

There are few places as compelling in Irish monastic history then the site at Clonmacnoise that sits in the midlands of Ireland on the bank of the Shannon River. This special place is just .6 kilometers walk from Kajon House B&B. Kajon House B+B is the perfect location to set out to tour the midlands, Clonmacnoise and other monastic sites,... More

Best of all: All of the 'excellent' reviews are TRUE. PLUS: they have a very good internet connection FOR FREE! It blew our mind that this was not mentioned anywhere: internet connection is very good. We almost dropped it from our list, but were very happy to find such warm, hospitable hosts that enjoy having people stay with them. They... More
