“Warm, friendly and relaxing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 January 2012

Visited Killyliss for an overnight stay on New Year's Eve. Our hosts, Pauline and Kenneth, went out of their way to ensure we had a good stay.
Our room was warm and welcoming. Bed was cosy and the walk in power shower was lovely.
The location is stunning. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough daylight to explore the area (save for the local pub!) but I felt that the house would be a good base for some great walks.
Breakfast deserves a special mention. We were treated to fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereal, toast and homemade scones. All leading up to a fantastic fry up. It certainly set us up for the day!
I'd recommend Killyliss to anyone looking for a relaxing break. We're already planning another visit this spring.

“Fantastic experience & value for money”

This was a home from home. We were made to feel very welcome and the facilities were spotlessly clean & fantastic. Pauline, the hostess was so warm and welcoming. She was very understanding when we needed a later arrival time. We were even driven to a local pub! I simply can not find fault with this accommodation. The breakfast was delicious and I wish we could have stayed longer! Such value for money, this place can't disappoint!

“Fantastic!”

Had a brilliant stay here with my partner for a weekend break, room was very spacious and cosy. Showers are excellent aswell as the gorgeous breakfast in the morning, Pauline was a fantastic host. The free wifi and parking was also a major bonus. Highly recommended!

“Pauline is the font of all(Irish) knowledge.”

We have just had the most wonderful stay in what is arguably the best B&b we have ever experienced anywhere. ( we are both seasoned world travellers ). Our rooms were spacious and comfortable, everything en suite, we loved the power showers! The food must be mentioned.the traditional Irish welcoming breakfast with pancake and fried wheaten bread which my son loved and from day one had it at all meals, fried, toasted and plain! We chose the the dinner- in option. Great decision, menu discussed and agreed each morning and cooked to perfection. Other top class B&Bs possibly have the above attributes but the glue which takes Killyliss to the top is its host and hostess Kenneth and Pauline, discreet. helpful and above all dedicated to making your stay at Killyliss memorable.EG we intended to do some research on our Irish ancestry but our laptop packed up.Pauline came to our rescue and and achieved more results in an hour than we could have in a week!!Try Killyliss you wont regret it.
