“Home-from-home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 May 2010

Situated in the middle of the little town of Bruff, this is a classy b+b. As a vegetarian, I was particularly impressed with the inclusion of pancakes on the breakfast menu - and they were delicious!

Miriam had prepared a bedroom at the front for me, but the windows didn't open and I prefer to sleep with open windows. When I asked, I was immediately relocated to a room at the back with an opening window and a pair of delightful courting house martens outside.

There was free access to an online computer so I was able to check in for my flight and print out the e-ticket. Top class!

“A delightful welcome”

The Old Bank and the town of Bruff are a highly recommended stop for anyone touring the West Coast and a great alternative to nearby Limerick.

Miriam could not be a more accommodating or charming host, providing us with everything we needed for a wonderful stay as well as some excellent tips for eating and drinking in her lovely home town.

The rooms are very generous in size and beautifully styled. Our ensuite also featured a jacuzzi. Fab! The beds are incredibly comfortable and the rooms quiet.

Breakfast was generous and fresh and we were sent on our way with a spring in our step.

Thanks Miriam!

“We felt extremely welcomed and taken care of!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 March 2010

We stayed at the Old Bank when our reserved B/B had heating problems. Miriam welcomed us so wonderfully. Our room was immaculate and so comfortable. We stayed two nights, not consecutively, but missed a night in between. She saved the same room for us and couldn't have done more to make our stay fabulous. Thank you Miriam!
