Thomastown Treasure

Review of Ballyduff House
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 23 Oct 2023
Ballyduff House is a treasure! Brede Thomas is a gracious hostess and no detail was overlooked. The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and comfortable. The food is delicious and the conversation...wonderful. Our two night stay was the perfect ending to our travels in Ireland. Highly recommend!

    What a lovely place to stay and spend some time! My only regret is that we arrived late in the afternoon, and left soon after breakfast, so we were not able to enjoy the house and grounds as much as we had hoped. Brede was wonderful--fantastic host, and also gave us some recommendations for cities to stay in later in our trip. We had the room that you see on the main page--it sleeps three, although my daughter and I were only two. HUGE room, very comfortable and cozy bed, SO QUIET and peaceful at night. You really are out in the country with sheep and the river and beautiful lawns and flowers.
    The breakfast was phenomenal--she had something for everyone, and it was the best Irish breakfast that I had on my trip! Be aware that you ARE sharing a bathroom--I don't know why, but I thought that we had an ensuite, but I was mistaken. There is a sink in the room, and there weren't any other guests staying the night that we were there, but just be aware if that's not your thing.
    I hope that I can visit again, and I would stay at least two nights there to enjoy the peace!

    Had booked 2 night stay for a family wedding. The hosts daughter rang and cancelled our booking less than 24 hours before our stay. Had to book very expensive alternative accommodation as there was nothing available at such late notice. No apology.

    Stayed for several days and toured around the area. Brid was an amazing host. Each morning started with a full Irish breakfast, a warm croissant and hot coffee. Rooms were comfortable and welcoming and a great nights rest was had in the plush bed. Did not say goodbye, only til next time as I would gladly come back and stay again.

    Ballyduff house is such a treat. Breda is an amazing host so welcoming and a breakfast to die for. It was hard to leave :-)
    This beautiful house is like stepping back into a Jane Austen novel, the library is so inviting and comfortable to relax for the evening. The bedrooms are spotless and it is so cosy and warm too.
