Habitación muy confortable y limpia. Los niños (y adultos) lo pasaron genial con los animales. Todo excelente!
La qualité de la chambre est super. Nous avons adoré le site : les animaux, les jeux, l’attention aux détails avec les petites maisons des fées. Nos enfants on pu nourrir les agneaux et les alpagas. C’est un lieu particulièrement adapté aux familles.
Très bel accueil. Malgré notre arrivée assez tardive, les propriétaires ont pris le temps pour nous faire visiter la ferme (dont nourrir certains animaux)
Kaikesta! Ihmiset, eläimet, huone, siisteys, sijainti, ympäristö. Aivan upeaa!
Our one night stay here with our older daughters became the highlight of the holiday. We were made to feel like part of the family and so very welcome. The location is idyllic after several busy days and the room was spotless and stocked for breakfast and tea and coffee making facilities. We ventured out to meet the other residents who were very well behaved and Ann let us feed the alpacas and the sheep. Would definitely recommend it to anyone, especially if you have kids, either young or older.
The fresh air, animals, the facilities were exceptional. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The best staff I have met in that industry
They could put more signs on the road, to make it easier to locate the place in those farms.
We loved everything about this accommodation! The cleanliness of the room and the place, the priority Anne who is very kind, the animals that we were able to feed in the morning! The house that is beautiful! It was our best stay in Ireland! We will be back :)
We improvised this stay and are glad we did! Our child (a bit under 8) had the best time, not only with the animals but also the amazing garden with climbing frame and toys. Our hosts were super nice and generous with their time. utterly inspiring visit.
honestly it was so nice, we recommend. We knew to bring food, which you can reheat with a microwave, as the closest restaurant is a 15' drive away.
We felt welcomed from the moment we arrived and the place was spotless clean! Our room was very spacious and comfortable! We really enjoyed our stay and seeing the lovely animals!
The place was absoslutely gorgeous, and smelt incredible from the moment we walked in. The kids loved all of the animals and they loved a snuggle with the kids it seems too haha. Would and will stay here again next time we are near. Couldnt recommend Anne enough as a host. she was delightful and friendly from start to finish.
Just such a beautiful space! Hosts were so lovely

The location was just outside a small village. The night sky was beautiful and full of stars, and the property is large full of cute barn cats. The hosts were extremely kind, helpful, and responsive.
Everything
Magical fairy forest & farm- an amazing experience for children! Exceptionally clean and renovated accommodation.
Really friendly family, fantastic hosts. Lots of fun things to do for kids.

Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und haben uns die idyllische Farm gezeigt. Alles war sehr sauber, plus es gab ein kleines Frühstücks Paket mit Toast, Marmelade, Getränken uvm. In der Unterkunft. Jederzeit gerne wieder ;<)
The Farm Escape was our favorite stay in Ireland. Ann and William were amazing hosts with helpful hints about the surrounding towns and great recommendations for our trip. The room was clean and very comfortable with stunning views. We were exploring area tracing some of our ancestry and they went above and beyond with connections. During our trip the farm was set-up as a local pumpkin patch for the Halloween season and it was such an extra special treat for our boys. They loved getting to know all the animals especially April, Bob, and Donald.
The big bed was a little on the firm side, but the comfy bedding and soft blankets made up for it. It ended up being one of the best nights of sleep for me on our trip.
We had a brilliant night at Ballyhoura Farm Escape! The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable, and the family were incredibly welcoming. We stayed with our 3 & 1 year olds, and Anne & William really went above and beyond to give our children an amazing experience; feeding the lambs, walking the alpacas, collecting the eggs, playing in the fairy garden, and having fun seeing all the other animals. We feel very lucky to have happened upon this place, and would love to return!

The location was great to check out the mountain biking trails!
The host was very friendly, accommodating and made us feel very welcome. Ballyhoura is a lovely, peaceful location with some lovely walks in the area, and the locals were very friendly. The room itself was spotless, comfortable and very spacious. I will be back.
Maravillosa estancia. Localización preciosa en entornos naturales. Se nota mucho cariño en el cuidado y la decoración. Amables y atentos. Todo perfecto.
Sinceramente no había nada que sea mínima mente negativo. Absolutamente recomendable.
Le logement était mieux qu'indiqué ! Il disposait de lits très confortables, d'une salle de bain complète. L'environnement était magnifique. Il y a aussi dans la chambre un frigo (avec une bouteille de lait et de jus d'orange), un micro-ondes, un grille-pain et les propriétaires laissent de quoi se faire un bon petit-déjeuner (céréales, confiture, beurre, pain de mie). Nous aurions aimé rester plus longtemps.
It was our second visit to Ballyhoura farm escape and we enjoyed every single minute. It is great value for money in a very nice area and the owner did a lot for us. It’s in a beautiful location peaceful. We would recommend to anyone because it has a very peaceful surroundings that are great to enjoy. We also thoroughly enjoyed the new developments on the farm that have been built since our last stay.
Everything was perfect
El mejor alojamiento en el que hemos estado nunca. Bonito, agradable, cómodo, limpio, con muchos detalles. Si vas con niños les encantara poder estar en contacto con animales y el espacio. Nos atendieron genial!! Vale mucho la pena pasar una o varias noches aquí!
Nada, todo fue perfecto!
Comfortable stay, good play area and activities for children. Farm experience with animals was nice
Nous avons passé un séjour exceptionnel ! La chambre était vraiment superbe, très propre et parfaitement entretenue. À notre plus grande surprise, le petit déjeuner était compris et déjà prêt dans le frigo : un vrai plus qui a rendu notre séjour encore plus agréable. L’endroit est magnifique, calme et reposant. C’est aussi un lieu idéal pour les enfants : ils peuvent jouer avec les animaux et profiter des jeux installés dans les bois, ce qui leur a beaucoup plu. Nous recommandons vivement cet hébergement pour un séjour à la fois confortable et ressourçant.

Die Gastgeberin war sehr freundlich und alles war sehr sauber und aufgeräumt.
Alles war ok
All'arrivo l'accoglienza di Anne e stata molto calorosa e al contempo professionale, il primo impatto con l'esterno della struttura comunica inequivocabilmente un senso di ordine e pulizia, sensazione che cresce visionando gli interni. La camera molto spaziosa e profumata, adeguata per tre adulti, con angolo soggiorno e completa di frigo, micro, bollitore e stoviglie. Bagno in linea con il resto della struttura: ampio pulito e profumato. Compresa nel costo della camera abbiamo ricevuto un assortimento di prodotti per approntare una colazione completa (consumata in soggiorno): latte, burro fresco, succo, biscotti, cereali, marmellate.......Scelta molto smart che non impegna proprietari e ospiti. In fine,ma non per importanza, la fattoria è tutti gli animali....semplicemente meravigliosi. Sono certo di aver dimenticato qualcosa ma è tutto veramente di ottimo livello.
Niente, niente
Le cadre paradisiaque. L'attention constante de l'hôte, la propreté, le confort... Tout était idyllique. Une des meilleures locations que j'ai fait.
Rien du tout.
Lugar excelente y cuidado. La habitación tenía de todo. Los propietarios de 10, atentos y deseando que todo estuviese bien. El espacio y los animales fantásticos si vas con niños.
The hosts were very friendly and the farm was brilliant. Anne and William have a fantastic place.
We loved our one night stay at Ballyhoura Farm Escape. Our children aged 9 and 12 had a magical time on the farm feeding the animals. Ann and William have a lovely home and the farm experience is truly wonderful for young and old. Our room was spotless, spacious and had everything we needed. We'll be telling our friends about this place.
Wonderful location. Warm welcoming hosts. Spotless accommodation and room facilities to rival the best hotels!
Nothing
Oh, let's see. EVERYTHING! This was like opening a fun mystery goodie box . . . from the minute we pulled onto the property. Oh MY! And it just got better and better beginning with a wonderful greeting at the front door when Anne met us, so graciousy at the front door. Our very private room was lovely with big windows to see the property outside. (it was sparkling clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable). Anne accommodated in the most generuos way and it didn't stop there. Her family is equally lovely and we so enjoyed getting to be with them. And I haven't even started on their four-legged family. It was glorious seeing their farm and hearing the visions they have. This is a BnB visit you won't forget. (But then I missed them when we left!).
Nothing, absolutely nothing. Even the weather cooperated!
Really lovely property with a wonderful warm welcome & every need facilitated. Highly recommended
Family súper place! It was Really nice experience and close to farm animals world!! Owners were so kind that it was incredible 2 nights. Kids Also had fun feeding the lambs and Really great hospitality from the beggining.
beds that are too soft
Fantastic hosts in a beautiful setting. More than enough to do on and around the grounds.
We had an amazing stay with this lovely family and their adorable animals. We loved the farm tour and even got to feed the baby lambs! The location is beautiful, quiet, and peaceful. Our room and bathroom were clean, modern, and relaxing. And we loved the breakfast items that were provided. This is such a majestic place! We will be back. Thank you for everything!
Anne & William were the best hosts. The room was spotless. We were very happy with everything. The kids absolutely loved the farm animals and the highlight was definitely feeding the baby lambs but everything was just perfect. Would highly recommend for a family getaway. We will return in the future for sure.

The place was perfect. We had a really nice gateaway weekend. The area is beautiful and calm, perfect for a nice rest. The welcome from Anne and William was great and we had a really nice time with them with the animals present on the farm. I would definetly recomand to anyone.
We loved everything. The kids enjoyed all te wonderful friendly animals, which they could pet. The hostel was so friendly and left us some juice, milk, bread and other stuff, so we didn't have to worry about breakfast. Thank you for the relaxing experience!
Place was amazing. Animals were adorable kids loved it and the hosts were lovely. Already planning our next stay

Very welcoming. Excellent facilities.
We had the most amazing stay at Ann and William’s Ballyhoura Farm escape. The room was well equipped and spotless and they were so accommodating and generous with their time. We love the passion they have for their farm. It is a truly joyous place to be. As for the two lambs… they were definitely the star of the show (or maybe it was Daisy!) This is a real hidden gem. We stayed as a family of four, but we all loved it just as much as each other. We want to return!!
What a lovely place and people. A warmed welcome and fantastic moments with animals. We enjoyed every minute of our stay 🤗
Stunning location and beautiful property. Such a lovely family, very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend and definitely return for a longer stay 😊
We stayed at the Ballyhoura Farm Escape for only one night, but enjoyed every bit of it. We came quite late in the evening, but Anne still welcomed us very warmly. The room we slept in was clean and tidy and has enough space for a family. In the morning we were lucky enough to meet all the aminals including the sheeps, cows, ponys, pigs and the newly arrived alpacas. the hosts were really flexible with us taking our time petting the animals and even allowed us to stay as long as we want. If we had more time, we would spend more days at their place as the hosts are not only nice, but also the mountains surroundings are so beautiful.
The room, staff, and location were amazing. The animals were also amazing.
Great hosts and location. Class scenery!
What a lovely location! Great host, lovely accommodation, and friendly farm animals. We three friends truly enjoyed the ambiance, location, and the sweet farm animals we interacted with while there. Parking was availale, the location was easy to locate (with GPS), it had a pub nearby (driving distance), and the room was tastefully decorated. The host accommodated we three women with a double and two singles. It was a fun experience.
None of us had any complaints. The bathroom was accessible for all three women, and the beds were comfy.
A quiet location surrounded by countryside
Easy to access off the M8 Good sized room for 4 people Cosy and comfortable atmosphere and furniture
A sink would be handy in the room as we had to use the water in the bathroom sink to boil the kettle. There was water in the fridge but it was so large we thought we would spill it if we were to pour the water from the bottle into the kettle
Quiet area, farm,wonderful host
Very kind hosts. Very clean and comfortable.
