Birr is a lovely town - we visited family and friends and spent some time exploring the town. We visited Birr Castle and gardens, which are spectacular. We were however disappointed that we could not visit the castle itself as it is a private residence. The town is very tidy and people are friendly.

We visited the castle grounds which were excellent and much better than we expected.
Town centre has everything and reasonable cafes. Lots of pubs but then it was Ireland! Restaurants a little harder to find.
Walks and good quiet cycling on your doorstep or a short drive.

Visit the castle. You could around the grounds for hours. Lovely science museum in the castle. Lots of shops. Park and walk around it’s busy for driving. Pay your parking ticket wardens around all the time. Didn’t have time to investigate it further. We had all our food a Dooley’s it was fabulous.

Birr is a beautiful town. It's steeped in history.
Birr is a beautiful town. It's steeped in history. The period houses all around are stunning. Castle tour is highly recommended. Lot's to see and do there. Nolan's pub was very welcoming and a great pint to be had. Kelly's bar is great for food and old fashioned Irish atmosphere and pint of Guinness.

Birr Castle was an enjoyable venue for a day visit.
Birr Castle was an enjoyable venue for a day visit. We had dinner in a local bar/restaurant where the food was good and the staff were friendly. Birr is quite a small town and it can be visited over a two day period. It is also relatively close to the Slieve Blooms which is a good base for walking.

Birr is a nice small town with a lovely small park and river walk and a fabulous castle and grounds. Kinnity castle is a short drive away and the Slieve Bloom walking trails are worth a visit if you like hiking .
We stayed two nights while attending a wedding in Birr Castle.
It was perfectly located just outside the gates.
It was a lovely hotel, very comfortable and the staff were wonderful.
They were very accommodating and had no problem with my small dog staying.
Lovely cafe and shop also
This felt more like a boutique hotel than a B&B. The room was quaint and comfortable, the shared spaces on the ground floor were charming and the breakfast was delicious. The location is great - just opposite the castle and convenient if attending a wedding at a local hotel.
Very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Very nice breakfast with delicious homemade scones. Parking on site. Nice rural location with outdoor seating if warm enough. Area has lots to do. Nice places to eat locally. Birr castle well worth a visit
Lovely quiet location easy to walk to from Birr. Comfortable bed and the room was nice and clean. Carmel makes a sensational breakfast! Sausages were just the best and I loved her homemade scones too. Excellent value too, recommended.
Brona was a wonderful host, and we had a very restful stay. The location is a short drive to Birr Castle and downtown, and Brona gave great lunch/dinner recommendations. Facilities were very clean, and the bed was so comfortable.
The room was spectacular!
Big and comfy, exactly as in the pictures and description.
We got a warm welcome, and had a tasty breakfast.
For those who tour around Birr - it is an excellent choice!
We will sure get back again.
Modern, well-placed hotel. Large room and bathroom with walk-in shower (much nicer than the usual over-the-bath arrangement.) Everything was sparkling clean.
Very good range of TV channels.
Amazing stay at what I can only call a gem in Birr Town. Everything is just a walk away and the house is beautiful with everything needed. Host was also amazing 😊Will definitely return 😊
The room was very comfortable with an en suite bathroom and plenty of room. The accommodation was in a great location for the wedding that we attended and for easy access into Birr.
Location in town and the staff are second to none. The town is underrated as a destination as there are many golf courses nearby and a visit to the castle is a must when in town,
Location excellent, right in centre of the lovely town of Birr.
Hosts were excellent and nothing was a difficulty.
