This place is a little Limerick gem and the proprietress, Eileen, couldn't do enough during our 5 night stay to give us a warm Irish welcome and leave us with an authentic experience of her homeland. The beautiful old country house is quaint and quirky, filled with ornaments, pictures and and array of memorabilia from Eileen's past and travels, sparking many interesting conversations. We enjoyed a joke and a giggle and Eileen has a wealth of information to share. Most of all, the breakfasts were delicious - a wide choice, nothing was too much trouble - locally sourced produce, freshly laid eggs, Griddle bread straight from the pan in minutes and jams made from fruit picked in Eileen's relative's garden - who could want more?! Our trip to Limerick was made all the better for staying at the Orchard - thank-you, Eileen.

Great place to stay. I was in front so it was noisy from the road out front. I didn’t like that but other wise it was lovely

A fantastic B & B, Eileen is the perfect hostess and the breakfast as as good as a 5 star hotel. Even choice of chicken or duck eggs as well as home made bread and 6 home made jams.. Offered cake and tea in the evening when we returned from dinner, at a place she recommended after asking the type of place we wanted. Room comfortable and offered everything and more than any hotel. Went on to a four star hotel for the rest of our stay and it was no better than the orchard.

We had a wedding in the hotel near by. When we arrived at the guest house the owner dropped us to the hotel which was fantastic as I was wearing high heels. She was extremely welcoming and we were well feed in the morning. Was a lovely stay.

Eileen is the perfect hostess! She made us tea and we had fresh cake when we arrived. The room was clean and comfortable. Good internet. Eileen took our breakfast order and time we wanted to eat. We had made to order lovely omelettes with cheese and cherry tomatoes, toast, breads, fruits, yogurts, cereals, juice, and tea or coffee. Plenty to choose from. There were also 5 homemade jams - all delicious and made from local produce. Eileen made us very welcome and made sure we were well fed and well loooked after. She gave us directions and recommendations for dinner and relective vests to wear on the main road as we chose to walk into town (20 mins).

The Orchard is a quaint bed and breakfast located within walking distance to Newcastle West. The town has wonderful shops and the people are all very friendly. It is a wonderful, relaxing place.

Eilene, the hostess was just wonderful. We arrived early in the afternoon after visiting a castle ruins in the pouring rain. We were soaking wet and she immediately offered to make us some warm tea and have some cake. Be sure to ask about her award winning Guinness cake! Everything about the stay was wonderful, the rooms were very clean and had everything we needed. Eilene, made a wonderful breakfast and was a wealth of knowledge on the local area. Showing her schoolteacher background she helped us in basic Gaelic and translated our names and other information so that we could better understand. She was a wonderful hostess and made you feel like you were at home or staying with good friends. All in all a delightful stay for the 3 of us. We will definitely stay again when we are back in the area.

The host, Ilene, was lovely and could not have been more welcoming and friendly. She offered anything I wanted for breakfast...which included fresh-made little "griddle breads"...along with a lesson on making them, as well as French-press coffee made on the spot, orange juice, fresh fruit, multiple breads, and home-made jams.
Inn was a short distance from Newcastle West, right next to a cattle farm...I could even hear cows"mooing" as I pulled into my parking spot.
Ilene offered advice on places to go and direction before I left. I hope I can stay here again someday.

The Orchard's proprietress is a wonderful person who was quite helpful even before I arrived in Ireland.
The breakfasts were delicious! She prepares anything from sliced fruit, porridge to a full Irish breakfast. She even made gluten free cakes/ sweet breads that were quite tasty!!
The rooms were very clean with comfortable beds. It was surprisingly quiet even when there were other guests staying which made the experience even more pleasant
Good location, clean and comfortable rooms, delicious breakfasts and an owner who is warm, friendly, extremely helpful and knowleable of the area. Eileen made my stay in Ireland an awesome one!! I'll be back :)

The proprietor of this hotel is a lovely lady. She was very accommodating and cooked a wonderful breakfast. The hotel is very cute and comfortable. We stopped by on our way to the ring of Kerry and did not explore the area very much.

We came to visit family. Very friendly atmosphere with a good breakfast, and a very attentive host. Only thing I could criticise was no tea and coffee making facilities in the room (although to be fair, this was available in the lounge)

I had to stay over night. I arrived late , I was welcomed by Eimer and offered tea on my arrival. Eileen who is her mother , who was not there checked to see if I arrived safely.
This is a proper Irish B&B , they are not trying to be 5* Hotel, but offer far more in terms of welcoming you into your home and looking after you. The accommodation is comfortable but they could not have been more thoughtful in checking that I was looked after. If you need a place to rest , you would struggle to find better.

My family and I recently stayed 3 nights at The Orchard. My children, husband and I were treated like close friends or family. I can not speak highly enough of the kindness we received during our stay. The Orchard was a great starting point on our trips to the West coast and to the ring of Kerry. The town of New Castle was nice and we were close to Limerick. I recommend taking any unnamed roads your GPS might suggest for a great adventure! We stayed in the Family Suite, and the kids and parents enjoyed having our own beds! The breakfasts were delicious, come hungry.

We stayed here for 3 nights, and had been driving such a lot. Kind landlady drive us into Newcastle West, 2 nights which was really kind of her and much appreciated. It was a 29 minute walk, which was acceptable if feeling energetic...
Home baking was excellent
