My family & I traveled throughout the southern part of Ireland this last summer. We had a wouderful experience in all the B&B's in which we stayed but by far the best was this gem. A beautiful family run house with a spectacular setting and ease of access to other destinations. They were very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. We are... More

Carriglea House is a great place to be. The Rooms are extremely comfortable and the look over the lake is amazing. It is near to all the main attractions and a good starting point for daily journeys. Eileen is very courteous and has always a good tip were to go. Horse, donkey, dog and rabbits make this farm complete.

We stopped here so we could see Muckross house the next day as it was so close. The setting was charming and one of the most welcoming places we stayed. Breakfast was great and the view lovely. I loved that I could walk by the lake that evening. I would highly recommend.

We stumbled on this little gem late one night after driving around endlessly looking for a a place with availability. Eileen was so hospitable and welcoming! She was full of fun stories and helpful tips. The house & rooms were amazing. Large rooms with equally impressive bathrooms. The location is perfectly situated. We enjoyed our view out the front door... More

Carriglea House is a wonderful working farm and family B & B. The location is beautiful with a view of the lake and countryside. It is a great base to explore the Ring of Kerry and Killarney Area. We were a group of six and had the carriage house to ourselves. Our rooms were spacious as were the bathrooms (a... More

The Carriglea house is just what I envisioned a beautiful b&b to look like. The rooms were clean and extremely comfortable. The horse and donkey on the farm added charm. Beautiful grounds with a lake view ideally located next to many local attractions. Eileen is a true Irish gem who made our stay the best!

Wow. This was by far the best b&b we stayed at in Ireland. Eileen is great. The house is wonderful. We used it as a base for trips to Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula and Gap of Dunloe. The breakfasts were quite tasty and Eileen's bread is divine. Eileen was very helpful in lining up a trip to Skellig Michael... More

The Carriglea House B&B is highly recommended. Eileen is gracious and charming. The house and rooms are beautifully decorated with antiques. The location is excellent for visiting local attractions. By far one of the best places that we have ever stayed at.

The Carriglea House B&B is the ideal place to take a break from the modern world. The rooms are well kept, spacious and with good sized showers. John and Eileen are wonderful hosts and the breakfasts are delicious. If you need anything, just ask and someone will get it for you. This working farm is very "green" (environmentally friendly) and... More

We recently had the pleasure to stay at this wonderful establishment. My mother had stayed her 40 years previously and wrote in her journal that it was a "must do" if we ever got to Ireland. She would be so proud...we made the trip and the place was more than we could have hoped for. Eileen was absolutely wonderful to... More
