“Amazing!”
We booked 2 nights (2 couples) in The Tailors in May and we were absolutely blown away by the welcome. As it was my husband’s 60th birthday, Mary our host had decorated the sitting room with 60th birthday banners and a lovely card. The house was perfectly neat and spotless. Coincidentally, the local pub, Shivnan’s, is next door and our host Mary, is also the landlady of the pub. We had two very memorable, warm and songful nights there and must say a very profound thank you to locals for making it so memorable. We will definitely be back. Susan

“A lovely warm laughter filled stay. The highlight being a beautiful local bar literally on your doorstep( I was 30 years”
Close to Kilronan castle for weddings. Right in village with shops and petrol station yards away. A lovely perfectly proportioned local pub 5/6 yards away. The local customers were so friendly and welcoming and let my grandson play pool.

“Thank you MaryS. This was such a lovely place to stay.”
We were a group of 6 staying for a few days for a wedding in Kilronan Castle. MaryS was there to meet us on arrival and gave a tour of the property. Everything was perfect. The house was really comfortable and clean. The house has so many little things for visitors, all the basic things you want and need in a home from home. We had a lovely stay and the accommodation was more than spacious and the beds were really comfortable. It had plenty of the essentials like towels and kitchen stuff. The host was very helpful and we would definitely stay here again.

The place was exactly what we needed. It was clean, lots of space, right next to the local pub and with a kitchen where we could prepare our meals. Mary was lovely and helpful. The town is tiny, but it has shops, gas stations and it's close to lots of wonderful places. For families is perfect

“Exceptional accommodation”
Beautiful comfortable property. Spotlessly clean.Everything that you would need is in the house. Wifi excellent. An added bonus is that it's only 2 doors down from the local pub, which is owned by Mary also. Barman in the pub offered tea/coffee and a chocolate bar to one of our guests as she was driving. Food is also available across the road from the house and is delicious Definitely will stay here again and will recommend it 100% Parking available right outside the front door.
