Glencarrig B&B

Quel accueil merveilleux et énergique de notre hôtesse! Maison à 5 minutes de Carrigahot. Superbe petit déjeuner. Chambre très confortable, avec vue sur leurs adorables vaches et au loin la baie. Lieu idéal pour une étape qui permet de faire une sortie bateau pour voir les dauphins et d’apprécier la superbe vue de Loop Head et les falaises de Kilkee. D’autres vacanciers étaient là pour un séjour pêche.

Visited Glenncarrig as part of their fish & stay packages in September 2024 with 4 other friends. Accommodation was great, clean and comfortable; shared spaces (games room and lounge) were great for winding down at the end of the day. Hospitality was great, both Mary and Luke were friendly, welcoming and very accommodating. Foodwise, Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner were part of the fishing package; every meal was delicious and portion sizes were very generous - I ended up leaving half a stone heavier than when I arrived! Standouts being the fresh scones that came out with breakfast, Tuna and Apple baguette for lunch and the Fresh Pollack and chips! Had some time to check out the local scenery and the walks along the coast road are lovely and fairly flat heading west to Kilbaha and onwards to Loop Head. For those interested in birds, there's plenty to see while walking past the fields and marshland, highlights being Marsh Harriers and loads of Curlew; I wished it taken a book for the species as there were loads of small birds in hedge rows I didn't recognise. Inshore there were a lot of terns and gannets with the offshore highlights being Great and Artic Skuas, sooty shearwaters and lots of storm petrels. It was great seeing the bottlenose dolphins in the estuary, there were seals in most little bays but the big highlight was the basking sharks jumping off loop head; we saw them from the boat which was awesome and really close, but seeing them off the headland was fantastic as you could see them reacting to each other over a large area. If you are in the area at this time of year, I'd highly recommend visiting the lighthouse to watch these massive animals jumping! Another lovely place to visit is the Bridges of Ross would be a lovely place for a picnic! Would recommend visiting and especially taking advantage of the fish and stay package!

Wonderful place. The sort of B&B you always hope to find in Ireland. Small, clean, family-run, great breakfasts. Very reasonable prices. Glencarrig B&B offers all this and more. Idylllic location on a working farm near the sea with sea views. Maybe 4 bedrooms? No crowding. Awesome breakfasts provoded by Mary the host. She is great and will offer you tea and cookies when you arrive and give you tips for sighteseeing. Our stay was pure relaxation. Mary's partner Luke runs a dep sea fishing boat and on the way to the fishing grounds, you get to dolphin watch!

First class five star B&B in a rural location on the owners's own farm! It was so quiet and peaceful. We loved it. It is a short walk to Carrgaholt, the little seaside village. It is the perfect place to stay when visiting the Loop Head Peninsula. The whole place was totally clean including our bedroom. Breakfast was fantastic. We only stayed one night but I would happily have spent our entire irish trip there. Mary the owner is a very kind and welcoming person.

The perfect place to stay if you are visiting amazing Loop Head. We were warmly greeted by Mary, who offered tea and scones on arrival! Our room was fine although I wish the rooms were bigger. But for 2 persons it was fine. The house, room, bathroom were spotless clean. We loved the quiet and peace of Mary's and Luke's home and slept like logs! Mary sent us on our way with gifts of more scones and some sticky toffee pudding. Thank you!

Chambre très confortable et petit-déjeuner excellent. Notre hôte a été très prévenante. L'isolation sonore n'est par contre pas très importante. Bon rapport qualité/prix. Nous avons passé un bonne moment à la salle de billard. On conseille!
