My wife & I visited Ireland two weeks ago and spent 4 days on the Ring of Kerry. However, our wonderful experience began even before we left. After booking our stay at Taobh Coille I emailed Agnes to see if they could accommodate my wife's gluten-free needs. Agnes called me the next day and told me everything that she could... More

The pictures do not do the property justice. It is more spectacular and wonderous in person! Agnus and John are the perfect hosts along with Kelly their sweet dog! A must stay on the Ring-of-Kerry! Breakfast room overlooks the sea!

This is probably the best B&B I`ve ever stayed in. It's located at the Ring of Kerry, directly at the sea, with an amazing view over the Dingle Peninsula. Agnes & John are such great and lovely hosts. We stayed there for 5 nights and enjoyed every single minute! Some of our highlights: the great food (especially the Scones), the... More

We wanted to share our wonderful experience at this charming B&B with the world. Agnes and John (and their son Sean) were so welcoming. The room was very comfortable and private. The food was classic and delicious. The views out the back window of the bedroom and from the dining room were sublime. Agnes enveloped us in her warmth and... More

I know this is a late post, but I just found the business card for this B&B, and I remembering telling the owner Agnes that I would leave a review. I traveled to Ireland in October 2009, I was fortunate to be there for two weeks. We did the Ring of Kerry, and this B&B was at the end of... More

Taobh Coille was the third of four places we stayed on our circle tour of Ireland/Northern Ireland in Aug 2012. We arrived in the early evening after a long-day's drive & sightseeing and were given a warm welcome by Agnes and little Kelly (the dog). As we hadn't eaten yet, Agnes made a call to the restaurant/pub a mile or... More

First off, my wife and I were late arriving, and not only did Ms. Agnes greet us with a warm welcome but she also prepared us a fix of food for dinner since we had not eaten yet. This was especially hospitable because by the time we arrived we were exhausted from travel and instead of pointing us to the... More

I feel the need to preface my review with my bewildered and astounded reaction to the shockingly negative; nay, even vicious review of Taobh Coille' posted by 'shereethediner' - Like the vast numbers of other countless grateful guests of the O'Sullivans over the years must be, I'm simply shocked by her hateful words. Even if she's correct, and her host... More

Booked this B & B months in advance via email directly with owner. Arrived at the designated time of 2.30pm to discover a hand written note stuck on the window stating "I'll be back at 4pm". Frustrated and urgently requiring the bathroom the owner returned at 4.15 stating she had been at a wedding. We were quickly ushered into the... More

Dear guest, I am sincerely sorry to hear about your experience. I was not at home on your arrival, I was attending my God-daughters wedding and got held up. This was one weekend which I had no family member to replace me. This is no excuse, I let my guard down and should have been on site to greet you.... More

I stayed with Agnes and John for one night on the Kerry way. I have a very specific diet and Agnes went out of her way to accomodate me. She made the best vegetable soup from scratch. They really went out of their way to help me out. I had arranged for them to transfer my bag to my next... More
