Very comfortable and beautiful house
An elegant and spotless guesthouse set in beautiful countryside, with a nearby view of the lake, with so much thought given to the comfort of their guests; Billy and Anita are wonderful hosts providing a relaxed atmosphere and a sumptuous cooked breakfast of your choice, with freshly baked homemade scones and soda bread. They also cater for those with gluten intolerance. I would 100% recommend Bealkeally Country House as the ideal place to stay if you are visiting the area around Lough Derg. Our hosts took care of every need; nothing was too much trouble, whether it was reserving a table at a restaurant or providing a lift to Killaloe. A wonderful stay.
Wunderschönes Ambiente. Sehr freundliche und Zuvorkommende Besitzer. Hilfreiche Tipps für die Umgebung. Exzellentes Frühstück. Und selbstgemachte Scones im Zimmer als Begrüßungsaufmerksamkeit. :) Wir kommen gerne wieder
Beautiful country haven close to killaloe. Hosts, Billy and Anita so welcoming and helpful. Anita’s scones are the best ever, not only hot for breakfast but lovely fruit scones on arrival. Top scores to Billy for communication prior to our arrival, 5 stars 🌟

Authentic and pretty
Une de nos meilleures réservations sur nos 10 jours en Irlande. Très bon accueil. Anita est très attentionnée. Très propre. Excellent petit déjeuner. On aurait aimé passé 2 nuits !
Rien à redire tout était parfait.
Everything was fantastic. Rural location on your standard local Irish road with very scenic views of the rolling hills. Within 20 minutes to towns and restaurants. Breakfast was excellent and everything was made to order. Proprietors were extremely accommodating and great to interact with.
Could have used fans in the rooms for the warmer nights. But we didn’t ask either, so they may have been available.
Beautiful elegant house, very nice decor, lovely welcome from the hosts. We hadn't booked breakfast but host left lovely scones and we had tea/coffee making facilities. Really lovely experience and we would recommend. Only thing that didnt particularly suit us was that the house was further out from Ballina-Killaloe than we thought so we had to drive in for dinner and home. Magnificent views on route.
This visit set a high standard for our expectations of the trip. The owners are very kind. thoughtful, responsive to our requests. The room was very spacious with high quality bedding and furnishings. Breakfast was abundant and the setting was rich with charm and culture.
Beautiful old house. Very welcoming. Easily accommodated our late arrival. Great full Irish breakfast.
Beautiful house,comfortable bed,great breakfast.
It was all good
I cannot rave about this B&B enough! It is absolutely gorgeous – I love hearing the story of how they built this beautiful home from stone ruins! The antique decorations are beyond compare! The room I stayed in was very very spacious and the breakfast was wonderful!
Would have loved if breakfast was included as 100 was expensive for a night although room was beautiful
Nothing I didn’t like
La cortesia, gentilezza e disponibilità della padrona di casa la signora Anita
Beautiful house, charming owner--as so many reviewers have said, Anita is fab! Excellent communication through the booking process and a friendly welcome. The room was large and comfortable, with a modern bathroom. Super peaceful, with a lovely sitting room for our use on the ground floor and a seating area outside.
There was a kettle to make tea but no coffee maker--perhaps one could be installed in the bar area or dining room? I brought coffee bags but I missed my real coffee morning addiction! I realise that we declined breakfast, and that coffee would have been provided for that. Also, perhaps an honesty box in the bar area--with the possibility to buy some wine. We arrived unprovided and would have loved a glass of wine after a five-hour drive!
Wir waren von der Unterkunft begeistert. Anita, die Gastgeberin ist eine herzensgute Frau und hat uns einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt ermöglicht. Wir hatten uns sehr wohl gefühlt und empfehlen das Haus auf jeden Fall weiter. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig. Das Haus und Zimmer ist sehr sauber und einfach nur toll.
Es war alles super schön
Le paysage est magnifique Nous étions en pleine campagne Le style et la décoration est très soignée.Et le petit déjeuner est très copieux
The house has been immaculately restored and is in a handy and picturesque location. My room was immaculately prepared, comfortable and clean. Anita was a welcoming hostess and suggested a local pub for an enjoyable and delicious dinner. I will be back.
Property was lovely & quiet, fantastic views, clean & so comfortable. Anita & Billy made us so welcome (and the scones were lovely) that it felt like home from home. Whilst the location is out of the village, it is a short distance and well worth the effort. You will be treated like royalty!

We left behind a few items and host found them and offered to send on. The house is beautiful and was fully restored in the old style.
The room, the location, the house, Anita... everything was fantastic!
Beautiful house, very comfortable, stunning views, lovely breakfast and the family were really lovely and couldn't do enough for us.
Nothing
Such a pretty place to stay with a very Bridgeton feel. My host Enita was so friendly and helpful. The tea and scone on arrival was fantastic. The room is large and tastefully decorated. The breakfast was gorgeous, fresh and cooked to order. The bed is very comfortable and the bathroom is modern with toiletries provided.
The location is perfect if you have a car with shops and restaurants within a short drive. The TV has very few channels and the signal was interrupted. But as I was out and about it was not too much of a problem
Beautiful house made up to high standard. A very tasty full Irish breakfast and lots of extra options for cereal and fruit all served up by the wonderfully friendly Anita.
No complaints at all.
All is at the best level
Beautiful Georgian house, sympathetically restored and decorated. Nice location near Loch Derg.
Nil, all good.
First rate breakfast. Location was ideal. Anita was so welcoming and friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to stay again.
Beautiful place they have there. Smart and very clean good standards. Everything about the place was perfect. The lady very cheerful and kind, very good person 👏.
The house and suite where both beautiful, the property was elegant, and most importantly the hostess and host were warm, friendly, accommodating, and respected our privacy. Breakfast was abundant and tasty.
Actually, we loved everything and would come back. There was a small hiccup in the middle of the night: the hot water heater blewup, but we didn't know it until our hostess told us at breakfast!
Very beautiful, comfortable and clean.Amazing courtesy from the owners

Wonderful staff and wonderful location will definitely stay there again. This was my second time staying here.
Super hostess and beautiful house and surroundings
A beautiful period country house all to ourselves, with fabulous warm welcome and spacious and really comfortable rooms.
It’s listed as Killaloe on Booking.com but on a very rainy night we found it some distance away.
Anita and her family were amazing! Not only did they provide us with a place to stay, they helped us with our travel plans. Forever grateful for her kindness.
Amazing beautiful house and garden. Felt like staying in a "manor" house (almost a palace) but at the same time so comfortable and cosy. The décor is lovely and it incorporates modern with traditional. It's the perfect place to escape from the city stress, surrounded by nature. Very short drive to get dinner. Breakfast was amazing and Anita was so nice and welcoming.
There was nothing I didn't like
Anita extended a genuine welcome, creating a very comfortable and friendly atmosphere. She served AMAZING breakfasts at requested times to meet our schedule. Our accommodations were excellent!
No negatives! We enjoyed everything!
Anita is a really warm, friendly host who made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The house itself is renovated to a very high standard and has a very cosy atmosphere throughout! Our room was extremely spacious with a private en-suite, and the king size bed was really comfy too. The breakfast was a particular favourite of mine - full irish with optional fruit, cereal, scones etc. Overall a very pleasant stay, perfect for a little getaway. Thanks Anita! - Anaïs
Anita was so warm and welcoming and makes fantastic homemade scones and lovely breakfast.
Nothing.
Anita went above and beyond to make sure that we had a happy and comfortable stay.
Very welcoming and clean, Killaloe is a beautiful place to be and Bealkelly House is an incredible restoration story
Looking to the future it would be helpful if there was an electric charger. However there are two sets of fast chargers in Ballina, just across the bridge
A beautiful place to stay, Anita and her family are delightful, the accommodations are first class and the Irish breakfast was a wonderful treat.
The location was a bit more remote than we expected. The nearby roads were single track with passing places.
Excellent host who welcomed us with scones and tea. Very friendly service throughout. Beautiful location. Great breakfast.
All perfect
Warm friendly welcome. Excellent food in an intimate dining room. Quiet location
Nothing I could think of
Anita was the perfect host. So helpful and made every effort to make our stay perfect. The work they have undertaken over many years to convert an old farmhouse with no roof into the property it is today is outstanding. We wish them every success as they continue to put their ideas for further development of their B&B.
?? What was there not to enjoy !!
Anita was a terrific host and their home is beautiful. The suite was very large and I had the best night's sleep I've had in years. A really generous host.

Superb renovated Georgian house in a beautiful location with very friendly and helpful hosts. Excellent breakfast
The warmest of Irish welcomes from Anita and Billy. Lovely surroundings of this beautifully renovated country house. Delicious tea and scones on arrival. It was all wonderful!
Very remote rural location, miles from restaurants or services. Not typically Georgian as advertized, and looks in need of restoration, not post-restoration. Place looked abandoned in late afternoon, no signs of life, no curtains in windows. Looked like a setting for a Hitchcock movie. We stayed parked outside the front door for 5 minutes to see if anybody noticed. They didn't, so we decided we would risk losing our deposit and search for more appealing accommodation. We lost our deposit and have no regrets. Would not stay there if they paid me.
Great host Anita! Super Irish breakfast !
Lovely location with fantastic views; comfortable room with lake view and newly renovated bathroom; fantastic breakfast cooked to order; Anita the hostess made us feel so welcome!

Beautiful individual country house. Classic furniture and very comfortable bed.
2 night stay and we were given the choice to have the room serviced which out of politeness we declined. On reflection would have been nice to have come home to a tidy bed and clean towels after our day out.
Anita was extremely helpful and warm when we arrived. We were staying overnight for a wedding and Anita offered to bring us to our car which we were leaving in the wedding venue (15 minutes away). Anita's husband/partner dropped us to our car the following morning which was a huge help. Both very friendly and warm! The property itself is beautiful and spotlessly clean! The room we stayed in was really big and spacious. The bed was really comfortable - had a great sleep. A great stay and experience - I would hugely recommend staying!
Nothing.
Anita was attentive, hospitable and friendly. I really appreciated the complementary tea and scone when I arrived. Breakfast was very good.
Because I travelled alone, the room rate is expensive for single occupancy.
A beautifully restored and tastefully decorated old country home with a very personal service. Anita and Billy were most kind and we were welcomed with coffee and scones. They reserved a table for us in a local restaurant and even drove us there and back. A most pleasant stay on the last night of our holiday.
Really comfortable stay, cake and tea on arrival, exceptional breakfast and such a beautiful home to be welcomed into.
Beautiful house, lovely food, lovely host, incredibly comfortable beds
The cleanliness of the rooms and the over hanging sheet on the bed frame could have been better, but that wont stop us coming back!
Bealkelly House is a beautifully restored Georgian House, in a stunning location , with an amazing and personal welcome. I highly recommend a stay there!
Anita contacted us about the arrival time. Since we made a big day trip to Donegal, we did not know when we would finally arrive. It was no problem at all to make arrangements here. We were warmly welcomed and could immediately move into our "Shannon Suite". A lovely room in country house style gave us beautiful hours in the rather remote southern part near Lough Dergs. The breakfast was delicious and Anita took good care of us. We can highly recommend this location to all other travelers.

Fab location, setting; gorgeous room and lovely atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming; great breakfast
Friendliness of staff, clean & confort
Breakfast was great, but could be better explained that was not included in price
Our room was lovely and big, the whole place was very clean. The lady that owns it was so welcoming and made sure we were comfortable! She even popped to a shop to pick up some soft drinks for us. The next day she also offered us a lift to where we needed to go. We couldn't recommend this stay enough!
Nothing, it was amazing
Anita at Bealkelly Country House is a wonderful host. We enjoyed our 2 night stay very much. The house is beautiful and is in a picturesque location. We stayed in the Derg and Shannon Suites and had the house to ourselves. Everything was spotless and comfortable. We had delicious scones and tea on arrival and enjoyed drinks in the bar in the evenings. We didn't have breakfast only because we don't eat early. Anita does catering, and judging by her scones, I can imagine the breakfast would be lovely.
There was nothing we could fault.
Breakfast to go to war on! Fresh cooked, unbegrudging in quantity & quality. Friendly empathic service went well beyond the brief!
Forgot my sunglasses when checking, Anita the host dropped them out to the location I was working at. Excellent hosts
