What Our Guests Are Saying About Their Stay

“Barry and Fran’s place was our favorite out of the 5 places we stayed during our 9 night holiday in Ireland. The home was clean but so cozy, and the perfect retreat. We enjoyed having coffee and breakfast outside, and our own happy hour after a day of exploring Adare.”

Outstanding rental for a week for our family of four. Barry could not be a more friendly, helpful host! Location is ideal as a central hub from which to explore western Ireland. It is an hour + to Galway, Dingle, Killarney and Cork. We went out touring every day, and it was such a pleasure to simply return "home" each night. And of course, Adare is incredibly charming on its own. Last, once again, kudos and tremendous thanks to Barry and Fran! We very much hope to return some day, and this is the only call I will make!

Barry and Fran went above and beyond. They supplied toast, cereal, eggs, jams and juice. We were pleasantly surprised! If you are looking to enjoy a bit of country and true Irish hospitality this the place for you. Adare has so much to offer from great restaurants to traditional thatched roof homes. We would book again in a heartbeat!

Staying at Bari and Fran's home was one of my favorite BnB experiences ever. Not only were we greeted by Barry who was incredibly friendly and gracious, we were totally taken with his beautiful home, the grounds, and just how lovely everything was. One of the highlights of our stay, however, has to be the warmest and friendliest greeting by Susie, Barry and Fran's amazing boxer dog. She truly made our stay feel right at home. I couldn't recommend Bari and friends place more. I truly hope one day I'll be back for Susie to greet us again.

“We loved the stay at Kilknockan Lodge. We wish we could have stayed longer. The house had everything we needed and Barry and Fran were the best of host. We met Barry upon arrival and he was quick to show us around and make us feel right at home. We had fires each night in the outdoor firepit and Barry checked with us to see if we needed anything. It was great to hear about the area and the history. We will definitely plan to stay with them again if we are back in Adare..."

Our family had a wonderful and relaxing stay at Barry and Fran’s place. They were such gracious and welcoming hosts. It was very close to the village of Adare to get anything you need, and very central in general if you need to get to the Cliffs of Moher or Ring of Kerry — it’s a great home base. Thanks for a great stay!
