    Birr is a lovely town - we visited family and friends and spent some time exploring the town. We visited Birr Castle and gardens, which are spectacular. We were however disappointed that we could not visit the castle itself as it is a private residence. The town is very tidy and people are friendly.

    We visited the castle grounds which were excellent and much better than we expected. Town centre has everything and reasonable cafes. Lots of pubs but then it was Ireland! Restaurants a little harder to find. Walks and good quiet cycling on your doorstep or a short drive.

    Birr is a beautiful town. It's steeped in history. The period houses all around are stunning. Castle tour is highly recommended. Lot's to see and do there. Nolan's pub was very welcoming and a great pint to be had. Kelly's bar is great for food and old fashioned Irish atmosphere and pint of Guinness.

    Birr Castle was an enjoyable venue for a day visit.

    Birr Castle was an enjoyable venue for a day visit. We had dinner in a local bar/restaurant where the food was good and the staff were friendly. Birr is quite a small town and it can be visited over a two day period. It is also relatively close to the Slieve Blooms which is a good base for walking.

    Birr is a nice small town with a lovely small park and river walk and a fabulous castle and grounds. Kinnity castle is a short drive away and the Slieve Bloom walking trails are worth a visit if you like hiking .

    Our stay at Townsend House was wonderful! The room was beautiful- we stayed in the family suite which was spacious and very comfortable. The location was just perfect for exploring the small village of Birr- walking distance to the castle and town center. The staff were welcoming and the breakfast was delicious (and huge!). We were so happy with this stay and would definitely recommend it.

    A real homely atmosphere, we were offered tea/coffee and some cakes as soon as we arrived. Maureen is really friendly and genuine, and you feel like you already know her. Fantastic breakfast with lots of options. Powerful shower with plenty of clean towels. It’s a great location particularly if you’re visiting the castle. We would highly recommend a stay at Emmet House.

    Carmen is a wonderful hostess. She is kind and eager to share recommendations to travelers to experience her corner of the world, and she definitely elevated our stay in Birr. We learned about Hurling, the wonderful restaurant at which we at dinner, and an historic site on our way to our next stop. She is amazing.

    This felt more like a boutique hotel than a B&B. The room was quaint and comfortable, the shared spaces on the ground floor were charming and the breakfast was delicious. The location is great - just opposite the castle and convenient if attending a wedding at a local hotel.
