“Lovely Host, great B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 June 2007

We had a very pleasant 2 night stay. Pauline made us feel welcome and valued guests. Her breakfasts were great, the room was very clean, well appointed and had a very comfortable bed. Highly recommended.

“Elm house was wonderful!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2006

This B&B is in a really peaceful location, about 1 mile outside Adare. The beds are comfy, rooms clean and tidy, and most of all, it has a really homely feel.
The host - Pauline - is a lovely, kind, friendly lady, who made us feel truely in Ireland. She has a gentle Irish spirit, and could cook the most hearty Irish breakfasts we've ever tasted!
If the weather is good - we enjoyed walking on the old railway track that takes you straight to Adare - beware though - its a bit slippery when wet, but a good alternative to the main road. It took us about 40 mins to walk it, but it was an adventure every time. ps- no taxis seem to be available at 4am - so make sure you organise a way to get home - perhaps pre-book a taxi??
I think that Elm house is a good alternative to more central B&Bs in Adare because you feel as if you are in the countryside, and Pauline makes you feel like a welcomed guest, as opposed to simply another tourist.
