A working dairy farm, the award-winning Ballindrum Farm sits amongst the lush countryside of Co. Kildare, offering bright rooms, beautiful views, and hearty farmhouse breakfasts. Guests can enjoy guided tours of the dairy farm, and Dublin is only an hour’s drive away.

Mary was a very welcoming host, with a lovely breakfast every morning. Superb value for money. Beautiful location, my bedroom was overlooking a field of cows. Easy to find also.

The host family was extremely kind and helpful. We arrived very late and they left everything ready for us so that we could go to sleep at once when we reached the house. And they surprised us with fresh eggs from their own chicken (they were delicious).

A Georgian farmhouse in the Kildare countryside, Moate Lodge near Athy provides individually designed rooms and a full breakfast menu. This dog-friendly guest house is around 1 hour’s drive from Dublin and offers free parking and Wi-Fi.

Mary and Raymond were the kindest people we've met so far during our Ireland trip. Check-in went smoothly, the room was clean with comfortable heated beds. Bathroom had towels, shampoo and shower gel and overall very pleasent experience. We had an irish breakfast with tea and coffee, which was delicious. If I ever visited Ireland again, I would definitelly stay at the Moate Lodge. Raymond also gave us a lot of tips and info about interesting locations near there. We recommend the Lodge 10/10!

Guests can enjoy a meal at the on-site family-friendly restaurant, which serves Irish cuisine and also offers vegan, dairy-free and gluten-free options.

For guests with children, the villa provides a baby safety gate. Guests at The Stable Yard House at Burtown House & Gardens can enjoy cycling and walking tours nearby, or make the most of the garden.

One of the most breathtaking properties I have stayed at. The history, gardens and the villa itself is a very special experience. Stylish, comfortable, generous in its amenities. Wonderful restaurant on the grounds too. Truly magical.

Situated in the countryside of County Kildare The Lodges at Kilkea Castle is set in 180 acres of its own woodland and gardens. A 12th-century castle, Kilkea Castle is one of the oldest inhabited castles in Ireland with a history dating back to 1180. Designated parking is available.

This is a very under rated property. When we made bookings in Ireland for our trip, we had limited availability in this property, else we would have stayed the entire week in Kilkea Castle. The place is magical & very well kept. The staff were very friendly &, helpful. The rooms were really big & our 2yr old thoroughly enjoyed the garden access from our room ! Living in a castle was always a dream, but this places makes it an experience to cherish forever.

    We were a family of 8 adults and 5 children aged 11 9 6 5 and 2. The farm was great for children there was a room with toys and games that suited all ages which was a bonus to keep them amused. Breakfast was amazing and Mary couldn't do enough for us. She went above and beyond.

    Mary is a wonderful host, she made sure we are comfortable and happy. House is fully equipped, we had really lovely stay. It was quite there, really nice view from the windows, my kids loved the cows and they saw wild rabbits 😉 We stayed in the lodge house, it was really clean, perfect for families or couples. Around are lots of attractions within 30-40 mins drive for kids but adults too. We need to book full week stay, because 3 nights were not enough 😉💗

    This was awful. We were so disappointed. It should not be on booking.com as a b&b. The house had long term tenants with small children.

    Perfect for us as a family of four with a toddler, was as exactly as described, very local and just a stones throw from anywhere you wanna walk, the river, the castles, museum, park and lidl and supervalue as well as lovely local shops. Was more comfortable than a big hotel as felt like a little home away from home. Breakfast is self service but was plenty to choose from.
