Mary and family were great hosts, extremely friendly and offering many tips and ideas for nearby adventures. Their home was in an area close to everything and very clean and peaceful. I highly recommend the BallyRobin and I am looking forward in staying when I visit Ireland again. The hosts get 10 stars.
New Castle West was about 3 miles down with restaurants, pubs, markets, shops and even a Castle. The hotel in town has great food and very reasonable. The town of Adare was very nice as well. Lots to see and do there. A picture paradise.
