We were 2 families sharing the house with 10 of us in total. The house perfectly fit us all. There are 5 large bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. Love that there was a washing machine and a dryer. We enjoyed the sunroom every morning for our tea and coffee. Nice and close to Adare, which is beautiful. Angela was so kind and accommodating.

First, Angela, the host was superb! Communications with her was exceptional! She immediately responded to any question. The house is in an ideal location - a very short distance from the center of Adare yet it is in a quiet, country setting. It is perfect to stay there for several days and make day trips to Dingle, Ring of Kerry, Cashel Rock, Cliffs of Moher and more. The house is large with 5 bedrooms and lots of space for all. This is our second time staying in this house. My husband and I brought 5 of our grandchildren - all late teens to share the experience of visiting western Ireland and sharing this house. I highly recommend this house and hope to return some day!

We had group of 8 and we enjoyed the home and its amenities, including the sunroom outside. The hosts were accomodating and had stocked essentials which were appreciated. We did a lot of driving but found the location accessible and the town of Adere was fantastic.

40th Birthday Trip

We stayed at the Fanningtown House in Adare for 5 nights while visiting the Irish country side. Everything was comfortable for our group of 7. We were able to cook breakfast before we headed out for the day. Our favorite part was ending our evenings in the hearth room with a cozy fire. Would definitely stay here again!

Family Visit to Ireland

We had the most wonderful stay. The house is gorgeous and spacious. The gardens were lovely and we loved the little bonus “cottage” in the back. The proximity to Adare was fantastic and it was a convenient jumping off point for exploration to Gort, Kinsale etc….The hosts went out of their way to make sure our stay was exceptional. Would recommend whole-heartedly!
