The b&b was wonderful with the nicest and most accommodating hosts. Geraldine and Brendan couldn’t have done anything better. Breakfast was very good and filling. Bed comfortable. We would stay there again if in the area. Kenmare is a cute village.

Loved our stay at Abbey Court. The staff were wonderful, from early check-in, to tips on what to do, to the fantastic breakfast each morning. On top of that they are just friendly and lovely people who provided us with the perfect space to enjoy Kenmare, and tour the Ring of Kerry. 5/5 and would highly recommend.

Beautiful property where you are treated as family

This B&B was so cute. We had a nice chat with one of the owners before leaving for dinner then had ample privacy. The property is so beautiful. in the morning the free breakfast did not dissapoint and when we told the other owner that our tour got cancelled she went out of her way to draw on maps telling us other places to visit. We took her advice and had a great time seeing things we would not have readily seen online.

Cute Place with Great Hosts

We enjoyed our one-night stay at Abbey Court. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the location was quiet and beautiful, with a great view of an ocean inlet and beautiful grounds. The full Irish breakfast was fantastic. Our room was clean, and while the bed was a tad more firm than we'd prefer, it is well maintained and spacious. The only downside is that if you're not really looking for it as you come in, you'll have a hard time finding the entrance, and it doesn't come up well on GPS.

Beautiful Place, Delightful Hosts

We arrived early but were warmly greeted by Brendan who showed us to our room, then offered us tea and coffee which he served with some biscuits. He chatted with us including telling us places to see and showing them to us on the maps which he loaned to us. The room was quiet and comfortable with everything we needed. The next morning we had a delicious breakfast with cold and hot options and another delightful chat. The last morning his wife was there and we had another lovely breakfast and visit with both of them. They are very welcoming and accommodating. It is clear they enjoy meeting new people and are true B&B hosts. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!
