The Old Bank

If there was a higher rating, I would give it. This was hands down our favorite B&B during our trip. It's wonderfully decorated, with comfortable beds and linens, a full size bathroom and little extras around the room like a coffee pot and water. The best part about our stay was Miriam, the wonderful owner. She was so friendly and knowledgeable, pointing us to local attractions that we hadn't even heard about and helping to plan a driving route to bring us close to all of them. Because of her, we visited Muckross House, a fantastic day we would have missed without her help. Breakfast was a delight, full of wonderful homemade treats and meats from their family shop. My dad, whom I was travelling with, has repeatedly mentioned our stay at the Old Bank, and how it was his favorite stay on our trip. Should I visit Ireland again, it is definitely on my list for another stay. Thank you Miriam and family!

Out of all the B&B’s we stayed at during our holiday, the Old Bank was by far the best place we stayed at. The hostess was warm and very sociable. Had a great sense of humor as well. We really loved the parlor with the warm fire, and found it hard to want to go back up to our rooms for the evening. I would stay here again in a heart beat if I’m in the neighborhood again🥰

Friendly, clean, huge breakfast options and a warm fire at reception. This former bank, renovated into a B&B, gives a guest a bit extra as does the lady in charge. Parking was right out front, we slept well, enjoyed the pub down the street, hope to come back. TY Miriam....

A very nice B&B and also a very nice host. We always had a good time with Miriam. She helped us with detailed plans for hiking tours and gave tips for places to visit. The room was excellent and quiet. For breakfast we were offered a variety of (for example) different pancakes and also did Miriam provide us with different sorts of coffee. For those who complain about the size of the TV in the rooms: well, you did not come to Ireland for watching television, did you? We were pleased with the size of the TV and needn´t really one. All in all we can recommend The Old Bank to every visitor. If you are not pleased, it is your fault, not that of the host.

Bernd & Elke You have given me a great giggle here.. a woman after my own heart.. I'm delighted you enjoyed your stay so much, and we do try and make everyone's stay the best we can.. I would hope after upgrading the Tvs to 32 inch flat screens with Netflix and youtube that no one else will give out about their size.. ha ha Till next time, our fondest farwells Miriam & Family xx
