It is rare to find a guest house which is impossible to fault. This is certainly one. We have been regulars here for many years and just love the place. The location, the views, the warm welcome from Nancy Brosnan, the impeccable rooms and the amazing breakfasts - all add up to a perfect B&B experience. If you are looking... More

I really enjoyed the time at Stanley House, because of the warm and cosy atmosphere. Nancy is a very lovely person and a good cook as well. I can recommend this B&B and I'm looking forward to my next stay there.

As others have said: Nancy and Tom and their Stanley House offer great sea views, spacious and spotless rooms with tasteful decor, a yummy breakfast and warm hospitality. My boyfriend and I were greeted upon arrival with fresh tea and carrot cake on the patio which was such a nice touch! They asked about our itinerary in Ireland and gave... More

We stay overnight at Stanley House. Nancy couldn't have been more welcoming. We were greeted with freshly brewed coffee and homemade coffee cake on arrival. The guest house has a beautiful view over the bay. Beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was lovely.

We had a great stay at this remarkable B & B, our host Nancy was extremely helpful and interesting. Within minutes of arrival she had coffee on and home made cake that was brilliant. The location is perfect, near to town but far enough away to be peaceful together with views of the bay that are picture perfect. The water... More

We arrived tired and wet at Stanley House but the welcome we received from Nancy, not to mention the tea and carrot cake served in the elegant sitting room, revived us within minutes. Our room, overlooking the bay, was the most comfortable and relaxing space with lashings of hot water and towels for a shower in the en suite, before... More
