Dave and Irene, Ballincard is such a special place to visit and you leave not only feeling freshened and relaxed but with a bit of history as well. Such a unique stay and a must if you love nature and animals! Walking through the property provided such serenity and learning about the places rich history was an added bonus to the stay. Dave and Irene are gracious hosts and really made us feel welcomed. We had ample fuel for our fire at night, a private little apartment in the beautiful Ballincard House, and we were close enough to the little town of Birr to walk the streets and grab a a great dinner at the Thatch and there were plenty of places to grab a pint as well. Will definitely be back and we are looking forward to it!
