“Don't Miss It”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 23, 2008

person found this review helpful

Flemingstown House is the perfect place to stay while visiting southwestern Ireland. All the sites of the area are an easy drive away. Imelda is a perfect host, and the old country farm house is charming and immaculate. The rooms are large and cozy, and the furnishings equisite. We were there for five days and enjoyed every minute.

“Imelda is the greatest host ON EARTH!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 3, 2008

This was an incredible experience that words cannot describe. Wwe had a little trouble finding the place but it was well worth it. If you have a map or GPS you should have no problems. We arrived late but were warmly greeted by our host. She knew we had a long day (arriving after 22:00) and insisted upon tea and crumpets as she knew we had not eaten. She also offered sandwhiches and other foods before we went to bed. She has won numerous B & B awards and it clearly shows. The traditional Irish breakfast was more than any of us could eat and the service and environment was wonderful. She actually called me in the States before we arrived to give me some last minute tips on travel in Ireland. We heard Imelda was also known for her dinners so we asked her to cook one for us (not knowing it was Mother's Day in Ireland). She never mentioned a thing and put on a spectacular feast with the charm that only the Irish could give. The rooms were spacious and inviting. Everything about the stay was wonderful but we all agreed it was the hostess that made it truly special. I cannot recommend this B & B enough.

“our best B&B stay ...EVER!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 8, 2007

++ Imelda is the perfect host, and made sure that we were warmly welcomed, shown the available facilities and our room. Afternoon tea was promptly offered, brought up to our room with biscuits. Imelda is the genuine perfect hostess, an ideal Irish ambassador ensuring that everything the guest requires is available and also well received.

++ The rooms are very nice, ample in size, large comfortable bed/bedding, spotless/clean bathroom, soaps, soft towels ...the attention to detail is evident and endless. Almost everything is like new, except that you are in a beautifuly restored 250 year old farmhouse with pleasant pasture views and ...peace and quiet. Perfect.

+++ Dinner was truly outstanding. The best we have had in a very long time. A delicious homecooked meal, very nice after our days of eating at restaurants. The main course served with over four types of vegetables (very proper), and two types of desserts WOW, we were being treated like family. All cooked by Imelda, served by Imelda, ensured that we had everything we needed, by Imelda. It was like Imelda was our grandmother.

+++ Breakfast ...ditto!!!

- we did not have wireless internet access in our room, however Imelda allowed us to connect to her kitchen PC

= Overall highly recommended. After many B&B stays in North America, and three weeks in Ireland/Scotland during August 2007, we can honestly say that this was our best B&B experience ever. We look forward to staying here again, hopefully for more than one night. Thank you Imelda.

“Beautiful, Warm B & B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 26, 2007

Spent the last 2 nights of our 2 week trip to Ireland here with Imelda, and wish we could have stayed longer. We were greeted so warmly upon arrival, and as it was cocktail time, Imelda brought ice to our beautiful, antique filled room, on a silver tray, with Waterford Crystal glasses. Breakfast was delicious, everything home made. This is a very special place, run by a very special woman. We enjoyed our time with Imelda and her family very much, and will definitely return.

“A gem of a B&B”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed July 5, 2007

person found this review helpful

Flemingstown House B&B is an 18th century manor house on a working cattle farm. It is furnished and decorated with exquisite taste and style. The rooms are large and well equipped to make for an extremely comfortable stay. The owner, Imelda, is an delightful hostess who greets you with true Irish charm, warmth and hospitality. The Breakfast menu is 5 star quality. The Breakfast table is laid with silver and Irish linen napkins. The museli, bread, cakes and cheese are home made and the presentation and attention to detail is amazing. Dinner is also available.

Staying with Imelda is an experience I will treasure always. I hope to return soon.
