Francois Many thanks for your fantastic review, it was a pleasure having ye in my home and sure hope to see ye back again PG Thanks again With kind regards Catherine

We spent three exceptional days and evening at the Torine House in Killorglin. Our hosts were gracious. Our room was neat and tidy. Our homemade breakfasts were perfect. During the days the Dingle Peninsula, Killarney National Park, and the Ring of Kerry were all a half hour away. For evenings an eight minute walk found us in a workaday Irish town with good restaurants and a great pub along with every day shops such as an Aldi’s to buy makings for picnic lunches. On the evening walks back to the Torine House on a clear night, we could see the Milky Way and search for constellations. We had an interesting talk with an English couple and fun with a young German couple. We were glad we stayed in a quiet Irish town rather than a tourist hub.

Hi Michael and Ann Thanks so much for your wonderful review, it was sure a pleasure having you folks in my home. So glad ye enjoyed the homemade breakfasts, I hope one day to have ye back again, ye were wonderful. The other couples really enjoyed your wonderful company also, so glad ye had such an enjoyable stay with us, many thanks again with kind regards Catherine

Clean room, but quite small and the bathroom/shower was very small. Catherine was quite lovely, kind and helpful in providing a recommendation for dinner. I've not stayed in many B&B's but from those that I have, I'm used to an open space where guests can sit and mingle outside of their assigned room. This guest house didn't have that so I was confined to my room while there. Maybe this is normal? I was also a little uncomfortable walking in the front door to find Catherine's husband sitting in the living room watching tv and yelling out that she had a guest. Overall, I believe the price was commensurate with the B&B.

Hi Heather I think you need to go back to the drawing board again re the last paragraph in your review as this was not my husband in the living room it was a regular guest watching a game and has been coming to my home for many years. Regards Catherine

This house had the perfect balance of homely and professional. Catherine was a very welcoming host and I loved the breakfast that she made. I would highly recommend this accommodation to others.
