Beautiful city with a whole pile of history and things to see. There is fantastic forest walks, amazing caves and fantastic ruins and burial sites. Very well maintained and clean and very easy to get around. Food in the Crowes Nest was fantastic and the staff were really friendly. All the people of Cong were very polite and accommodating.

We were on a flying visit, but I know the village as I grew up nearby. Unless the weather is appalling, it us a great place to go. Lovely quaint village with lots of walks, caves, boat trips & eateries. Ideal for families and couples & those with wee dogs.

There were many interesting sets from The Quiet Man movie, as a well as a Quiet Man museum with costumes and props from the movie. There were coffee shops, restaurants and pubs, and a variety of clothing and souvenir shops. Getting around Cong was very easy. Parking in town was a little difficult, but there are two car parks, one just as you enter town and one near the church.

If at all possible --- go to Ireland's School of Falconry!!
If at all possible --- go to Ireland's School of Falconry!! Yvonne and Tommy were excellent! It was an experience of a lifetime. The grounds of Ashford Castle are gorgeous!! And it was a great surprise to see the lodge used for Danagher's house as we were walking through the gardens to the School of Falconry. The Monk's fishing cabin is cool.
Of course, The Quiet Man sites were fun. Aran Knitwear is a lovely store. I wish they'd have a few Clancy Brothers-type cables, but the modern, sleeker ones are pretty.
Pat Cohan's was delicious for dinner and had a luxury menu at good prices. Nice specialty cocktails, too.
We ate at Danagher's pub for lunch and the beef stew was huge and tasty (if a little salty). It reminded me of my uncle's rec room in the 60s.
The Irish History bookstore (Rare & Recent Books) was worth visiting. Extensive collection, modern titles, great old books, books in Irish, children's books,too. The prices were good.
Everyone we met in Cong was friendly and had good info!

We loved Cong.
We loved Cong. It was a beautiful town and area, with a gorgeous ruined abbey, forest walks, caves, an impressive manor house, quaint stores... The food was excellent at the Crow's Nest, and we LOVED the live music by Stephen and Trish. The salmon at Lydon's Lodge was incredible. The porridge at the Puddleducks Cafe, delicious. We HIGHLY recommend the Irish History Bookshop on Main Street. The owner, Robert, a historian himself, was able to provide us with so much information about the area's archaeological history that interested us. From Cong we explored the Nymphsfield Standing Stones (hard to find, but super-cool), the Ballymacgibbon Cairn, Moyne Castle, and Annaghkeen Castle. Cong is also the perfect base for day-trips to the Connemara Penninsula, and to the Aran Islands.
The location is fantastic. Sights are spectacular and grounds are wonderful.
The evening meal was good however I felt 2 choices of oysters limited other options on the starters. The main menu was good although again too many fish options.
The breakfast was different to other hotels which is wonderful and for the most the staff were so good and helpful.
I went on the Hawking walk and to be honest I would drive there weekly for that alone...
The bus and driver, Brian, were very good.
The breakfast was the best, ordered and had plenty. The staff was friendly and happy to do all they could. Of course the theme of the "Quiet Man" with John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara in '51 so all over the walls and in the rooms were placards and pictures of the film. All nicely presented. And real close to Cong (town of the filming). We had a great tour. The good
people of Ireland are the most kind and friendly and where ever we went always helpful.
Our stay at Nymphsfield House was outstanding! The rooms were spacious and spotless. Mary was a lovely host. There were five of us and she catered to our every need at breakfast and even made delicious home baked scones and Irish brown bread. We felt very welcome here and wished we could have stayed longer! By far the best B&B experience during our time in Ireland, thank you!
The location: near Cong and adjacent to Ashford Castle. Also loved meeting our hosts, Patricia and Gerard, who welcomed us and left us all the fixings for an Irish breakfast. Thirdly, our villa looked brand new: was spotlessly clean and decorated beautifully and comfortably. We also loved walking into Cong and through the grounds of the Ashford Castle.
We arrived in lovely Cong and parked in the large carpark, behind the hotel. (the entrance way is just beside the Garda station) The hotel is lovely and staff were very welcoming. Our room was small but grand for a one night stay. The bathroom was clean and modern. We had a lovely few drinks in the bar and the breakfast was nice. Wonderful experience!
This is a little gem on the outskirts of Cong Village, near Ashford Castle. It's very quiet and a wonderful place to stay for exploring the surrounding countryside. The facilities were of high standard, with comfortable beds and open plan living space, and the owners a pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend it. Thank you.
The breakfast was excellent , Staff very friendly and helpful , Evening meal on both nights was outstanding and not to expensive , Rooms were spotless and beds very comfortable ,This is our 3th time in Cong but this was the best place to stay and we will be back again to the Lydons Lodge Hotel
A wonderful location just next to Ireland's most beautiful lake and one of its prettiest villages. Our hosts were so attentive - with locally sourced produce and free range eggs from their farm! We are looking forward to our next stay - we just need to find an excuse!
Thank you for the heartwarming welcome and stay at your house. For us, the room was just perfect, we had everything we needed and the hosts are friendly and caring. Lovely and wonderful place to stay when you're on a trip through ireland. For us it was just perfect.
The location is excellent right in centre close to Ashford castle. Was in front room of hotel very comfortable and clean. Staff are very nice and helpful.breakfast good choice offered lunch menu very good. No late music to keep you awake at night.
The property was gorgeous, right along the river. Inside the home was lovely as well. Rachael was such a welcoming host, we felt very comfortable there, and would definitely stay there on a return trip to Ireland.
Beautiful country area, stones throw from Cong village.
Spacious ensuite bedroom with views onto the garden.
Lovely outdoor seating area.
Breakfast was above and beyond.
