The owner was very kind, attentive and hospitable. She gave us the names of some restaurants in the area to try for dinner and the one we picked was excellent. The breakfast was very good and she was flexible with the time that we asked for. The rooms were clean and comfortable.

Our one night stay for our group of 9 was great. The rooms were clean and the owner could not have been more helpful. We had a nice night's rest and were treated to a delicious breakfast in the morning. Don't miss this place if you are looking for a place to stay!

Very helpful with any needs. The full Irish breakfast was very yummy and perfect for the start of a day. The beds were warm and inviting. Wonderful first night in Ireland. Carmel offered us the choice of rooms too!

I was in a group of 9 people and we all loved this place! The owners were great and extremely nice and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and there was plenty of food. They also recommended a place for dinner and we all liked it. A great start to our vacation, and I would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I took a trip to Ireland in mid-april of 2013. We had the immense pleasure of staying at the Ballingowan House with Ms. Carmel being the host. She was ever so helpful. The breakfast was amazing, and she really made us feel welcome by going out of her way for everything. I enjoyed taking photos of her... More

We stayed at Ballingowan House for five days in April, 2013, while visiting our long-lost cousins recently proven by DNA testing. My great grandfather emigrated to America from Castlemahon about 1850. Our hosts, Carmel and Charlie O'Brian, were outstanding! Carmel, a nurse by profession, made sure the room was spotless. She served an Irish breakfast every morning and was a... More

There were 12 of us traveling in our group and 10 of us stayed at this cute B&B. The other 2 were added later to our group so they stayed at another B&B, but Charlie and Carmel said there was room for them too, but plans were already made elsewhere. Charlie and Carmel were great hosts and so very friendly.... More

This little gem is a perfect place to stay and visit the cliff's of Moher. We traveled from Dublin and hit up the cliff's and than settled in for the night in this little place in Limerick. It was perfect. WE all were about done driving so we were happy it wasn't too far from the cliff's. We had a... More

Our stay at the "Pink House" B&B was magical. We were in search of family records in the area of Newcastle West. Carmel could not have been kinder, and because of her care and efforts we were able to find family. The accommodations were comfortable and the excellent breakfast was served in a lovely dining room. One of the nicest... More

My fiance stayed here 14 - 18 Sept, he works for Olehausens and was working at the Taste of Westfest. When he remarked how fabulously friendly Carmel & Charlie were I had to experience it myself and joined him on the Monday. Not only had they made him feel so welcome they were extremely generous & drove him to the... More
