Bansha House
Bansha, County Tipperary

This impressive Georgian residence is approached by an avenue of Beech trees, set in 40 acres of land. The house is furnished in keeping with its character and there are several pieces of antique furniture about. The bedrooms are large, and two are on the ground floor. The charming lounge has a log fire and leads out onto the gardens.

A relaxed and comfortable atmosphere pervades, and guests can often be found in the kitchen with Mary, chatting about what to see and do in the area. John and Mary breed racehorses, and their stables-registered Equestrian Centre offers horseback riding. There is an all weather 1/2 km track on the farm.

Cooking is of a very high standard, with home-made breads, tarts and pies. Glorious scenic tours can be taken from here. This is superb place for guests wanting some peace and tranquility. A self catering cottage is also available.

Visa, Mastercard accepted.


Open January - December
Rooms 4 double, 3 twin, 1 single; 5 en suite

This comprehensive and charming guide to Irish B and Bs will help make any holiday in Ireland a trip to remember.

First class guide to Ireland's bed and breakfast lodging

Bed and Breakfast Ireland reviewed in Chicago Tribune
Maybe you'll stay in the place described as a pre-Famine wisteria-covered farmhouse -one of several overnight options in Westport, County Mayo. Or maybe you'll opt for the large Georgian mansion just beyond an iron gateway in Ballymote, County Sligo. Maybe you'll stay in one of the other 400 or so accommodations in this revised and expanded version of the book (Bed and Breakfast Ireland) that first hit the United States in 1991. Only an occasional line drawing interrupts the text; and in the back of the 319 page book, regional maps-which include ferry routes-cover the whole of the Irish Isle, from Derry and Belfast in the north to the Dingle Peninsula and Cork in the south. Each lodging entry ends with the names of the owners, season of operation and number of rooms. This review refers to an earlier edition of Bed and Breakfast Ireland as is the extract above. The latest edition of Dillard and Causin's Bed and Breakfast Ireland contains even more entries.
