    Mary and James understand hospitality and I just loved my stay here. They are a genuinely lovely couple and go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Breakfast was exceptional. Will definitely stay here next time I’m in Ballybunnion. ⛳️

    There is absolutely nothing not to like.

    The proprietors Mary and her husband are lovely people. They are so welcoming and helpful. The inn is very close to Ballybunion. The common areas are warm and inviting, the room itself was comfortable and spotless-- and it includes a perfect tea service in room. Now for the breakfast! They charge a small bit extra but it is so worth it to have a homecooked Irish meal. I will come back the next opportunity I get and I highly recommend the 19th Golf Lodge.

    The property is in a wonderful location. Quiet and serene with views of the world famous golf club and a 5 minute walk from the Cashen. A five minute drive into to Ballybunnion and you have access to superb beaches and a stunning coastal walk. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean.

    Sad for my pocket, no single occupancy rate for a double room.

    A warm welcome to this beautifully appointed B and B. At last, pure cotton sheets and gorgeous Killarney woollen blankets in my spacious bedroom. Wonderful breakfast.

    The most adorable and welcoming hosts, Mary and James, made us feel very special and important, were very friendly and warm. The place is amazing, it has this oldie-goldie character mixed with the touches of the modern times, a perfect place to relax. The breakfast was delicious, fresh local produce, gorgeous. We will definitely go back and would highly recommend. Thank you Mary and James!
