We stayed here recently & thoroughly enjoyed Sallyport House's hospitality. The recommendations to tour the Ring of Beara instead of the more popular (& over crowded !) Ring of Kerry was spot on, as were the restaurant referrals. But we really appreciated Janie's, kind & efficient handling of a medical issue that came up, she organized a visit to the... More

On our July 1999 trip to Ireland, we enjoyed another upscale B and B in Kenmare, Shelbourne Lodge. That B and B retains solid ratings ( see, for example, Karen Brown's Ireland. ) However, on the most postive recommendation of good friends, who had stayed at Sallyport House relatively recently, and to try another highly regarded B and B, we...

The house is nice clean and well located. It is not an Edwardian house but on the style of. I don't believe it to be an appropriate house to be included in hidden Ireland . But the most annoying thing is the landlady's insistence on finishing breakfast for nine am. More

I remember sinking into them. The shower in the room had the best showerhead and pressure ever. We had a spacious room that had two big... More

We enjoyed the antique-filled bedroom and adjoining sitting room at this small, owner-operated B&B. It is located on the south side of Kenmare, just as you come into town. It has a long back yard across which one can see a large manor house now converted into a luxury resort, along the river that flows through town. Breakfast was delicious,... More

Very expensive and not worth the extra dollar. Stayed in better for less. More

Gracious and helpful owner, great location within walking distance of town, great breakfast, confortable and very quiet bedroom, modern bathroom, and helpful tourist material provided. Antique furnishings, tastefully decorated. More

Janie was at the door to meet us as four road weary travelors arrived. Entering the front door we experienced the tranquilty and beauty of the Sallyport House. We were allowed to choose our two rooms. We chose 2 rooms with a view of the back including a lake, parks, fields and forests. Wonderful. The room we chose ended up... More
