Value for money, friendly, and gorgeous location.

The owners were wonderful and made the stay very enjoyable. Lovely wee dog, too, Roxie. Breakfasts were good, with the option of cereals & yoghurt as well as the full fry. No view to speak of from my room at the rear of the house, but the immediate vicinity is fantastic and the causeway approach adds to the sense of welcome isolation. I really enjoyed the walks around the island, and visiting the nearby Abbey outside of Ballylongford, as well as Listowel, Ballybunion Beach, etc.

The decor could do with a bit of updating but this really isn't a priority for me.

Great overall

Garrett, Patricia and Sam were great hosts who rang extra miles to make our stay worthwhile. Loved the food and coffee. Great views. Good facilities. The village is remote, exactly what we wanted to have a chilled relax time away from busy roads and crowds. You hardly see any vehicles or even people. Great to see so chilled and pleasant the villagers who live simple lives. Anyway in overall it's a great stay and we hope to visit again. Thanks very much for great hospitality ❤️

Very good

We had a good breakfast (Irish fry) . The location was very peaceful and quiet. The hosts were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

The en-suite bathroom was a little small and it was cold. Probably could do with updating. I imagine that Francis Brennan could make this a treasure.

The whole experience was disappointing, the B&B needs updating, the owners have dropped the ball!

Breakfast was ok, we were offered cereal, cooked breakfast was missing the black and white pudding!! We are in Ireland 🙄

We arrived an hour early than we predicted, we had a long day of driving and was desperate for the toilet and to get out of the car and have a cup of tea and maybe enjoy some hospitality (home made scone?) but we were met with no one at home and to find the owners working on their new rental project next door! We were sent away to the local centra!! Unheard of in our experience of staying in a B&B! The property is in need of a good tidy up and modernising, beds/towels need replacing, and all the family should introduce themselves, we felt like we weren’t welcome!! Also the best feature is the view especially on a sunny day, looking through a window with condensation in between the glass needs replacing. We only paid €70! So pleased we didn’t pay more

Staying a week is not long enough it would be a good place to spend a lifetime.

We liked everything about staying at Castle View House. My wife asked "Is ten the absolute highest rating we could give?", I told her I would try to give higher than ten. Garrett and Patricia were the perfect hosts and fell all over themselves to make us happy. We walked around their island, spent time at the old fort on the point at the end of the island, took lots of pictures of the Carrigafoyle Castle which is almost in their front yard. We were booked well in advance for 5 nights and were given their best room which looked over the cow pasture (full of Garrett's cows) and the castle was just across the water so close you could almost spit on it. The location was remote and on an easily accessed island which was just over a short bridge from the mainland. Garrett worked very hard many years ago to have the government stabilized a restored to its current condition. Carrigafoyle castle is a famous castle which was destroyed in a famous battle and is a major historical site and important to the Irish people. We were tremendously blessed to have had the opportunity to spend a few days being pampered in paradise.

There is nothing that could make the stay at Castle View House better, Garrett and Patricia have been doing this for about 30 years and have achieved perfection. Staying at Castle View House may be the most memorable thing you have ever done in your life.

We enjoyed our stay . Quiet and relaxing.

The location was lovely. Picturesk with a great view of the castle from our window. The breakfast was perfect for a day of riding bicycles. Gave us the fuel we needed. Our hosts were warm and friendly.

Great location, close to the ferry, great views, very friendly hosts. Definitely recommend the stay here. Breakfast was great! Comfy beds.

- the dinner I found to be a bit too expensive (22€), especially when it's late in the evening and they are offering only full menu (a lot of food) - soup, main dish and apple tart. I'd prefer to be cheaper and have only the main dish. - some water in the room would be nice to have - Was a bit too cold in the room, although electric heater provided. For safety reasons I don't usually sleep with that turned on.

Very peaceful and friendly B&B experience

The proprietors are very lovely and the house is nice and comfortable. The location is very serene and you can walk around the island and visit a castle ruin nearby. Meals were great.

One of our rooms didn't seem to have a functioning shower at all - no water pressure and very little hot water. The other ran out of hot water, but this could have been because it was the late evening. (We probably could have discussed this with the owners as they were very nice and helpful, but we were just staying for one night so it wasn't a huge problem). The location is also really outside of any nearby towns, so it's good if you're looking for something extremely peaceful, but there's not a lot to do around the property.
