Nothing

Lacking some amenities

DJ was a fantastic host.Beautiful house and location.Extremely quiet setting but convenient to access. Bathrooms were spotless, bedrooms lots of space. Plenty of food for breakfast and 4 course dinners were lovely. Hope to back and highly recommend

Fabulous old country house set in beautiful grounds next to the loch. Full of history, like an Aladdin’s cave of family treasures over the centuries.

There is not enough room here to say how great this property is. It is like being royalty when you stay there! DJ and his mom, Susan, are incredible hosts. The food is amazing. This is a place to go when you want to step back in time and get away from it all. The pastoral surroundings are stunning, and the house itself is full of history, currently owned by the 13th generation of this family. It’s adjacent to the Mayo Heritage Center, and there are many walking paths in the property, including taking you down to Loch Conn. It’s just lovely!!

Idyllic place ,surrounded by beautiful walks and we just relaxed and enjoyed all it had to offer. Great welcome from owners Susan and DJ,who provide us with a home from home. Fire lit for us every evening in beautiful sitting room and food was just delicious with home grown foods ,so fresh and well presented. Very dog friendly so much so that our English bulldog Nancy ,reluctant to leave today as were ourselves I would like to thank DJ for his warmth and great informative chats. The whole experience is best we have ever had and it is just the place to go for peace and tranquility. Bedrooms fantastic beautiful antique furniture ,comfortable bed and shower/bath with great hot water. Beautiful sights to visit in surrounding villages and not far to travel. I would just like to say thank you Susan and DJ for sharing your beautiful home with us and hopefully will get back later in the year Warmest regards Helen ,Martin and Nancy x

This was our sixth stay at Enniscoe House. It is very restful and comfortable. Not a TV in sight. Breakfast is delicious. Dinner excellent

Lots of character. Wonderful warm welcome and hosting.

Fabulous country house set in beautiful grounds. Its most famous visitor was Joe Biden, President USA.

Requires internal restoration work

Great period house, very friendly and helpful staff, particularly enjoyed talking to DJ after dinner. Evening meal was excellent as was breakfast. Very enjoyable sitting in front of the open fire with a drink

Very authentic grand house and home. Lots of history and engaging hosts. Excellent breakfast, and although dinner was short on choice, the quality and taste of the food was high. The public rooms are wonderful.

A bit shabby…cobwebs on the windows, and bedrooms are authentic for a country home, but at this price, the bathrooms are poor, ill-equipped, poor shower pressure and we shouldn’t be standing in a round-bottom bath with a tatty shower curtain to take a shower. No tea and coffee in bedrooms. No room service to make bed or tidy room, and towels had no chance to dry out during the day, so we’re still heavy and damp on our second morning.

Excellent food and very friendly, polite staff. Like sleeping in a stately home! Susan was very helpful in drying out our very wet walking gear. The waitress was delightful.

Some tea and coffee making facilities would have been welcome, either in the room or dining room.

Terrific breakfasts, marvellous dinners. Welcoming, warm and unobtrusive. Lovely grounds and House imaginatively managed and orientated to environmental matters. Great room with a view of the grounds and extremely comfortable bed.

Nothing to dislike. A delight to stay for three nights.

Gorgeous house and gardens.

The rain.

I was given a marvellous room, actually three rooms including a bedroom, a dressing room and a bathroom. The hostess, Susan Kellet, and her son D.J. werecharming and interesting. Meals were excellent. The other guests present were entertaining, interesting company. The house was both historic and a family home. As I drove up the lengthy drive, I saw snipe and other birds. I walked in the beautiful walled garden and went on Lough Conn to fish. President Joe Biden had recently used the house as his base while in Mayo and it was a good choice by his staff.

Nothing.

Full of character, very different and a real experience

No tv in the room and the shower was very poor.

Beautiful house and grounds with a wealth of history. Fantastic food and wonderful hosts .

Breakfast is superb and porridge delicious

Beautiful location and grandeur of the house and furnishing. Susan and DJ were very welcoming.

Either provide tea and coffee making facilities in the room or make available in sitting / reception room so you can make yourself as and when required.

Enniscoe occupies a beautiful spot on earth.

The property has been in the same family for 13 generations and they have lovingly maintained it. We enjoyed learning about the history. The huge walled gardens, including a formal flower garden and an amazing organic vegetable garden are first-class. The food and wine were superb. We loved viewing Lough Conn out our bedroom window with Connemarra ponies grazing on the well-kept pastures in the foreground. All in all, an extremely comfortable, interesting, relaxing stay.
