We enjoyed the warm hospitality of Killian Castle for 2 nights at the end of July 2011. We had en excellent stay in this idyllic country setting, under the weeping willow, with the horses and cows close by. Our room on the 3rd floor was very well appointed, clean and confortable. Breakfasts were excellent and really provided a good start to a day of sightseeing. Kathleen is a wonderful host. We are glad to have had this opportunity in our first trip to Ireland.

The title is not really correct as you do not stay in a Castle but a lovely old farm house. The castle has very little to do with your stay. However the old farm house is lovely and Kathleen's breakfast was the best we had in Ireland. My only negative comment would be that this also was the only place out of 8 places we stayed that didn't have coffee or tea in the room. I love an early morning cup of coffee and we had to go down three flights of stairs to get one in the early morning.

My mother and I stayed at Killiane castle for two nights at the end of July 2011. Overall, the stay was very comfortable. We stayed in a room in the farmhouse accommodations. The room was on the 3rd floor, where I think most, if not all, of the farmhouse rooms are located. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable.
The breakfast options were wonderful. The pancakes are to die for. Just a note for my fellow Americans, in Ireland “pancakes” really mean “crepes.” If you stay at Killiane castle, you simply must order the “pancakes.” Best we had in all of Ireland.
As far as negatives, we couldn’t find any good restaurants in the area around Killiane castle. Also, while the Killiane website indicates that you can order wine from their wine list, the castle no longer has a liquor license and wine is not offered. The website also indicated that you could order from a light meals menu at night. We did not see such a menu. Also, while there is a tv located in the room, it only has a handful of channels. This only became an issue because we couldn’t find anywhere local to hang out in the evening. So, we ended up spending the night in our room. It would have been nice to have more channels to watch. Finally, while the castle does have Wifi, you can’t access it from your room. You have to go to the first floor to be able to get a good connection.

My wife and I stayed here in May this year. I can only repeat what appears to be the majority opinion of visitors, this is an excellent B&B providing superb accommodation and magnificent breakfasts. One could not wish for a more charming hostess.
