Favorite B&Bs
 
Will be in Ireland May 22-June 3. Planning overnights in Doolin, Ennis, Killarney, Kilkenny, Ballyshannon, and Clifden. Any favorite B&Bs in those areas. All suggestions appreciated. Thanks.

We'll be there 22-31 May. Here are a couple of B&B that we considered staying in Killarney. Decided on Applecroft because it is in/near town.

We are staying in Kilrush our first night -- not far from Ennis, at this place.

Do a search on the towns and you will find lots of recommendations, I know for Doolin, Ennis, and Clifden. Just type the name of the city in the search engine. Enjoy your time in Ireland.

There are a lot of people going to Ireland in May. We are having an Ireland GTG on 27 May in the vicinity of Mizen Head. If you are interested and are going to be in the area, let us know. We are thinking lunch/dinner. ((b))

Thanks for the info Budman. Don't know where we will be on 27th but will definitely keep your offer in mind as we continue our planning.

I always stay at The Berry Lodge at Spanish Point!
Fabulous B.&.B and Rita Meade is the best cook in Ireland!
Don't miss this one!

Mystical Rose in Killarney, or Birchwood in Kilgarvan (Kilgarvan is 10 min. from Kenmare- around a half an hour from Killarney.) I loved Kenmare, and absolutely adored Birchwood and it's owners!

Our group of 10(family)stayed at Applecroft in Killarney in Sept. Kathy and her family can't do enough for you--we were even entertained by them on our last night there---we stayed 3 nights at the begining of our trip and didn't find any place to match hers the rest of the trip. Definitely suggest a stay there.

The Buttermilk Lodge in Clifton is nice and a 4 minute walk to the village. Breakfast is Irish but the also have more choices i.e. pancackes etc. It was much nicer than your average B&B. I think we paid 70-80 per night for 2.

The Dun Ri guesthouse in Clifden is a must! Great rooms and breakfast. Very nice! Good Price!

Stay away from the Rose House in Ennis.
