Tom is a great host at his bnb. Very welcoming. Helpful with suggestions for places to eat and visit. He made plenty offers of tea or coffee. The guest lounge is a nice touch - allows you to relax like you're in your own home. The breakfast was good; well prepared with plenty to eat. I'd definitely stay at Tom's place, the Ardmore House.

Ondanks dat het allemaal wat verouderd is, is de kamer ruim en schoon. De gastheer is een lieve, gastvrije man. Prima voor een nachtje.

Interesting town

Picked Kenmare for its access to the peninsular drives but the town itself is good to walk around and explore. Good shops and lots of eateries.

Ardmore house in kenmare

It was a great stay. The host, Tom, does a great job. Great advice on area touring that saved a lot of time and headaches. Location is right in kenmare and only a short distance to downtown. You can start the ring of Kerry right from here. Food was good. Nice Irish breakfast. Location is quiet as it is on a cul-de-sac.

Our host was very nice, home well kept. The room was clean and specious and the wifi worked better than most places. I do wish the shower had more pressure but other than that it’s a great place to stay. I recommend it

Best stay in Ireland

Tom was a very nice and kind host. He greeted us as soon as we arrived and got us a pot of tea to warm up. He recommended an amazing place to eat and also made sure we knew the best way to tour the ring of Kerry. Not only was tom amazing but the rooms were clean and cozy. Also this b and b was just a 8 minute walk to town and was the perfect place to stay to start the ring of Kerry the next day. Tom made us a traditional Irish breakfast in the morning before we left. I wish we could have spent more time in Kenmare.

Sweet and helpful owner, close to city center

The owner was so nice and helpful and provided great advice on the best way to do the Ring of Kerry. Breakfast was a delicious traditional Irish breakfast with a nice view of the mountains. Room was clean and comfortable. Close to city center (couple minutes drive). Only complaint was that there was no heat so we were freezing at night.

Tom the landlord was very welcoming and hospitable. We were in Ireland for a family wedding and he even gave us a lift to the church as it was raining-would recommend Ardmore House to stay if you are looking for value for money.
