• Marc (10/5): -
• SM (10/5): Welcoming, Tranquil - A welcoming historic home with beautiful furnishings in keeping with the style of the property. The property is in a tranquil location a few minutes' drive from Athy, with friendly hosts, a tasty breakfast, on-site parking. Good value for money, especially as a solo traveller.
• Donna (7/5): -

• Ievgen (10/5): -
• Keely (9/5): Very nice accommodations for our family of three, with exceptionally friendly hosts. - The location was just perfect for a first night in Ireland after arrival at Dublin airport. Wonderful historical buildings in a quiet location, with an excellent dinner to be found nearby, and full Irish breakfast in the morning.
• Matthieu (10/5): - Chambre familiale cosy chez l'habitant Hôtes d'une grande gentillesse Petit-déjeuner irlandais délicieux et copieux
• Manuela (6/5): - E' una struttura tipica che ha mantenuto il suo carattere originario. I proprietari davvero gentili, simpatici e super disponibili. La pulizia da migliorare sia nella camera/bagno che nella zona colazione.
• Gerrit (9/5): - Erg leuk B & B gerund door erg gezellige mensen, vraag de beste man naar history en je hebt een prachtige verhalen verteller Het was goed, misschien mocht het ontbijt wat meer, maar het kan ook dat ik een goede eter ben 😁, het werd met zorg bereid
• Juan Antonio (10/5): - Amabilidad huéspedes y el desayuno fenomenal Nada, estuvo todo muy bien
• Thibault (8/5): Je vous recommande Moate Lodge. - Tout est très bien Facile à a trouver Environnement calme Vue dégagée Propriétaires souriants Plein de place pour se garer Une grande chambre Un grand lit Un petit petit-déjeuner irlandais Un peu de bruit lors de l'arrivee tardive d'un autre locataire

• Marzia (8/5): -
• Hervé (10/5): -
• Guillaume (10/5): - Nous avons été très bien accueillis par la propriétaire. La chambre est spacieuse et les lits très confortables, typiquement irlandaise. L'environnement est très agréable. Le petit-déjeuner est exquis : saucisses, bacon, oeuf, prunes du jardin, céréales, soda bread, scone fait maison (mmmm!!!)... Merci pour tout !
• Serge (8/5): - Good breakfast
• Dominic (10/5): I had a very pleasant day with a delicious breakfast and a very hospitable couple thank you very much - Beautiful spot well-maintained
• Rémy (9/5): Nuit de transition entre Cork et Dublin à 4 - Petit déjeuner très bon et copieux. Raymond est un hôte très intéressant avec qui nous avons pu échanger. Malheureusement nous avons moins échanger avec Mary mais elle est très sympathique aussi. Le lieu est très calme. On serait bien resté plus. 1 lit double et 2 lits simples. Facile de se garer devant et un immense jardin pour se promener. A 8 minutes du centre d'ATHY. Si on devait mettre un bémol, ca serait sur les lits
• Karin (7/5): - Ein sehr reizendes, liebes Ehepaar...the good old Irish Style....
• Johannes (10/5): - Die Lodge ist sehr ruhig gelegen zwischen Feldern, trotzdem ist die nächste Ortschaft schnell erreichbar. Das Frühstück wurde individuell und frisch zu bereitet und war super lecker.
• Irene (9/5): - Habitación amplia. Los anfitriones fueron super amables hablando con nosotros y dándonos indicaciones para el viaje. El desayuno abundante y exquisito. Nada
• Phil (10/5): Beautiful country/farm BnB. Real farm, real hospitality. - Beautiful vintage country aesthetic. Fantastic breakfast. Great hosts. Great views. You can tell this has been a BnB for 20+ years! Nothing.

• seb_w (10/5): Idéal au calme dans la campagne. Parfait en tout point. - Au calme, dans la campagne Irlandaise, Mary et Raymond vous acceuille chez eux dans la plus pure tradition des B&B. C'est charmant, on s'y sent bien de suite. La chambre était très grande. La déco a le charme typique de ces établissements. La salle de bain a été refaite et elle est parfaite aussi. Notre découverte de l'Irish breakfast typique, un régal. Rien
• Elena (8/5): -
• MICHELE (9/5): - Bellissima accoglienza in un contesto tranquillo, circondato dalla campagna in situazione assolutamente tranquilla e rasserenante. Camera conforme alle aspettative. Ottima colazione, tradizionale nel nostro caso, ma viene anche data possibilità di scelta. Letti forse un po' troppo "tradizionali" e migliorabili
• BENEDETTA (8/5): -
• Joseph (7/5): 1800 Farm House with original owners and lots of character - old family home from 1796 farm house. extremely nice couple which is why they have a 9+ rating. to be honest this is showing it’s age. if you are ok with no AC or oscillating fan to keep the air moving, cob webs in the upper corners and mattresses from maybe 1800 then this is a good place to stay.
• Colville (10/5): Charming and homely - A truly warm and genuine welcome from Raymond and Mary who made us feel home from home. This property will delight all historians, and those who appreciate a character property will not be disappointed. It is a few minutes from Athy, a quaint and typical town with gorgeous riverside walks. The grounds are spacious and quiet, well manicured and lush. A car is essential
• Ken (9/5): - Lovely place to stay and Raymond and Mary are great hosts. Very nice breakfast too
• Sawbo (10/5): Charming, Characterful old family Country House with wonderful, welcoming, friendly hosts. - An absolutely beautiful old family country house that has been tastefully transformed into a charming up market B&B. Mary and Raymond are delightful hosts - full of local knowledge and wonderful Irish hospitality. It really does feel like you are guests in their home. The house and location are in the heart of the countryside with lovely views. Needless to say that it is in a very quiet area and we slept beautifully! Breakfast is all home-made and cooked to perfection. Close, easy drive into Athy for dinner. Would have no hesitation to go back and stay if we were back in the beautiful area. Thanks for a wonderful stay both.
• Dagmar (9/5): Bon séjour - Le B&B est parfait pour une nuit en route pour Dublin. C’est vraiment la campagne , calme est sympa.
• Catherine & Francis (10/5): - Grande chambre confortable dans une belle maison du XVIII ème. Excellent petit déjeuner irlandais et hôtes très agréables qui nous ont donné de bons conseils de visite et restau.
• Nalin (10/5): It was a perfect stay - Everything was perfect. We experienced 18th century charm in Moate Lodge. Mary and Raymond are excellent hosts. We had a warm welcome and privilege enough to have a tour in Raymond’s private tour. Food was delicious and wholesome, room was spacious, bathroom was spotless. Nothing
• Alex (10/5): -
• Munnelly (10/5): - Beautiful 18th century home, surrounding by enchanting tillage farmlands, fantastic hosts, delicious breakfast, wholesome, homemade bread and scones, great rooms, showers, etc highly recommend a stay here ♥️
• Ulrike (9/5): Charmantes B&B - Tolle Atmosphäre, sehr freundliche Gastgeber & schmackhaftes Frühstück Die Ausstattung ist ein wenig in die Jahre gekommen - aber durchaus charmant
• Martti (10/5): Vanhanaikaista eleganssia - Hieno huone pehmeillä matoilla, muhkeilla sängyillä ja kauniilla verhoilla. Parisängyn tyynyliinoissa oli hieno vanhanaikainen käsin kirjailtu kuvio (wow!). Vanhanaikaista eleganssia sekä koko talossa että myös tavassa palvella asiakkaita. Täälläkin olisi halunnut viettää aikaa hieman pidempään. En löydä mitään negatiivista. Pieni jääkaappi huoneessa voisi olla kätevä.
• Gennady (9/5): - Accommodation in summer and winter may differ. We were in comfortable weather. In the vast majority of Irish B&Bs there is no air conditioning in the rooms. When it is hot you have to open the windows. Then insects fly into the room and bite you. In winter it is cold. The air conditioner is turned on when it wants and chooses a comfortable temperature.
• Jennifer (10/5): - Mary and her husband were fantastic hosts. The place was beautiful. The scenery breathtaking Our room was comfortable and cosy Breakfast excellent 10/10 Nothing k
• Michaela (10/5): - Lovely house with lovely hosts surrounded by beautiful nature. Delicious breakfast and comfortable rooms. We travelled from the west coast to Dublin before our flight and just needed a one night stop to relax and this was the perfect place. We travelled with young kids. Can highly recommend.
• Dorothee (9/5): -
• Emese (8/5): A charming, old house with lovely owners, tranqility, wheat fields, nature. - A very nice elderly couple owns and operates this B&B. A charming, refurbished 200-yrs old house. It’s very remote. Would be nice to be able to use the microwave/kitchen to warm up food we bought earlier, so after driving for hours, we wouldn’t have had to get back in the car and drive again, to find some overpriced, mediocre restaurant.
• Martina (10/5): - Sehr nette Gastgeber und schönes altes Haus
• Guest (10/5): Great base for travelling around the region - A lovely old county house in a great setting. Being out in the countryside, this is a tranquil location where a good night's rest can be had.

• Agnès (10/5): Calme et ressoucement - Le calme infini, la nature à perte de vue, le confort de la chambre, les délicates attentions des hôtes, leurs conseils et connaissances utiles. Les jours de pluie.

• Olga (7/5): - This is a beautiful 18th Century Farm House. Mary has done a great job of incorporating tasteful internal decor in keeping with the character of the house. The furnishings and decor added to the experience. A great breakfast and welcoming hosts.
• Christiane (6/5): Historisches Landhaus mit gutem Frühstück, aber sehr altmodisch. - Der Standort ist perfekt - ländlich aber nicht zu weit draußen. Das Frühstück war zwar gut und original Irisch. Die Frau Gastgeberin war sehr nett. Der Herr Gastgeber war sehr gesprächig, was etwas störte. Die Küche hatte den Blick ins Frühstückzimmer, wir fühlten uns ständig durch die Gastgeber beim Frühstücken beobachtet. Zudem hatte der Herr Gastgeber großes Interesse an einer Unterhaltung mit uns. Da ich die einzige Person unserer Gruppe war, die englisch sprach, war ich jedes Mal am Zug, eine Antwort zu geben. Ich hätte lieber das leckere Frühstück genossen. Aber ich wollte nicht unhöflich sein, zumal der Herr Gastgeber sehr nett war - typisch für diese irische Kultur. Zweitens: Die Zimmereinrichtung glich einem Museum. Es gab kein Internet. Wir hatten schon viele irische Häuser gesehen, aber hier ist dringend Renovierung notwendig - insbesondere bei dem Preis, der verlangt wurde!!! Mein Kind fürchtete sich in diesem alten/altmodischen Haus vor Spuk. Wir werden definitiv nicht wiederkommen.
• Maureen (6/5): - Lovely old mansion house. Room was very very small. Would have been good for children but not two adults. No decent chair to sit on. No table only a nightstand.
• O Sullivan (10/5): - Old worldly with pleasant hosts.
• Healy (10/5): An oasis of calm - Mary and Raymond were exceptional hosts Raymond gave me a comprehensive history of the lodge and military history in Kildare which was really interesting.The setting was idyllic I wish I could have stayed longer Nothing
• Michelle (10/5): Great place to stay. - The hosts were fabulous it giving us directions and the history of the house and surrounding area.
• Eugene (8/5): -
• CHM (9/5): Heerlijk - lieve mensen - prachtige kamer - heerlijk ontbijt. - Fijne kamer in een landhuis "in the country" - fijne mensen - heerlijk ontbijt In the middle of nowhere, maar dat wisten we vooraf,
• Michaela (10/5): Es war ein Aufenthalt, der uns viel erzählt hat. - Wir hatten 2 ganz wundervolle Gastgeber, welche ihr so liebevoll eingerichtetes Haus mit uns geteilt haben. Mit so viel Liebe eingerichtet und herzlich geführt, konnten wir uns nur mehr als wohlfühlen. Als kleines Extra Programm haben wir eine kleine Hausführung vom Hausherren bekommen, der uns viel erzählen konnte über sein kleines Museum. Das Haus ist wunderschön gelegen, in der Natur und doch nah angebunden an die Ortschaften rundherum. Eine Herzensempfehlung von uns.
• Stefan (8/5): -
• Alicja (9/5): - Bardzo wygodne łóżka, podgrzewane materace. Przyjaźni gospodarze. Dostępny czajnik i herbata na korytarzu. Pyszne śniadanie, szczególnie scones.
• linda (10/5): Perfect quiet location - Quiet location. Had the best sleep in a long time. Perfect hosts who go out of their way to help Lovely breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble. Hope to stay again. Thank you Mary and Raymond for everything.
• Murphy (9/5): -
• Alexandra (8/5): -
• Claudia (7/5): -
• Deborah (10/5): Truly historic Irish country home, run by real working people, who care about their guests. - The house is absolutely charming and the hosts Mary and Raymond were so friendly and warm. So much history and knowledge here. We were shown into our beautiful light filled room, that had spectacular views over the stunning countryside. The bed was so comfortable. Facilities were great and clean. Breakfast was wonderful. I will always remember the sweet sound of the birds singing us into the morning. There is a large town 5 mins drive away with lots of pubs, restaurants, and normal amenities. Such great value for money.
• Alessandra (9/5): - Accoglienza di Mary e del marito. Splendida location immersa nella campagna irlandese. Cibo ottimo e genuino
• Jez (10/5): Go around the world twice and you still wouldn’t meet a nicer couple - Lovely couple. Couldn’t have made me feel more welcome Warmth
• Muriel (9/5): N'hésitez pas! - La maison est typique ; le jardin sublime ; l'environnement très calme ; les hôtes sont d'une extrême gentillesse et savent se montrer attentifs.
• Jacinta (4/5): Horrible - Breakfast was very good The musty smell in the house
• Colleen (10/5): We all enjoyed being in the Country home and meeting the ☘️people - Mary was wonderful and catered to all our needs She cooked a delicious breakfast. And her husband told us all the History of there 1776 home sitting on 300 acres of beautiful farmland.
• Dario (9/5): Tutto sommato bene - Posizione fantastica, in mezzo alla campagna irlandese, estremamente silenziosa. I proprietari sono persone splendide e affabili, Mary è un ottimo host. La colazione è un po’ scarna, ma tutti prodotti di qualità. L’arredamento è un po’ datato, diversi ragni in camera, non adatto a chi è aracnofobico.
• Egle (10/5): -
• Carracoi (8/5): La casa era perfetta in stile con mobili dell'epoca. Tranquillo - Buona . Si poteva scegliere cosa si preferiva mangiare. L' aspiratore del bagno molto rumoroso e in funzione appena aprivi la porta del bagno. Il caffè molto leggero, il colore assomigliava al tè .
