Visitors can enjoy a restful stay at any of our farmhouse B & B accommodations all of which are Failte Ireland approved and located countrywide. There they will have a unique opportunity to experience daily life in a rural setting with the very people who live and work the land.

All our guests can experience the magical nature of the countryside and enjoy appetising and healthy food in a clean and friendly environment. In addition to this, first time visitors can discover the traditions of Irish agriculture and music, the precious customs of rural living and also adjust to a slower pace of life. Some of our homes are located near towns, villages and cities while others are situated near our breathtaking world-renowned coastlines.

These homes offer reasonably priced accommodation and also a variety of activities that can be enjoyed by the whole family during your visit.

We also offer self-catering holidays in a relaxed environment. If you fancy a rustic retreat or a home from home in a rural setting, this is an ideal option. Self-catering gives you a base where you can unpack and explore. Houses are booked on a weekly basis Saturday to Saturday. These excellent properties carry a star rating granted by their local tourism body. If you are staying in Ireland for longer than a week, you might like to sample our B&B experience combined with self-catering.
