Stayed in the lovely Barrowville B&B recently and it ticked all our boxes. The hosts Dermot and Anna made it all the more welcomming. They were very friendly but also knew when to leave you be. The house is so relaxing, rooms spotless clean and the location is perfect, at a 3/5 min walk into the main street. Would highly... more

Barrowville Town House is a wonderful place to stay for a night or two if you'rr traveling in Carlow County or on a driving tour of the Southeast of Ireland. The house is lovely and comfortable filled with antiques. Anna and Dermot Smyth, the owners, are welcoming and added to the charm of our stay. I had emailed and explained... more

To top everything, the hosts are truly charming and... more

I enjoyed the breakfast - but then I normally do! By the way, the website is pretty good to give a good sense of what the house is about. It's at www.barrowville.com I... more

I booked the barrowville house after seeing pictures on the internet, and was really looking forward to staying there, and I was not dissapointed. I had booked at the last minute as I was surprising my mother-in-law and my aunt, who are both in their 70's, and unfortunately couldn't get the rooms for two nights, which was a shame, as... more

My husband and I just spent 3 nights at this property. We both (especially me) travel extensively and would normally not select a B&B but this one was recommended to us by a local friend. The breakfast was great (homemade breads, scones and jams), the price very good value we thought (Euro 55 per person), the bedroom large (but don't... more
