The Ford Reviews

Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: We had planned to explore the ring of Kerry and did not want to deal with the crowds and buses in Killarney. Kenmare was a perfect base for traveling the Ring and a great town for dining and shopping. But our best decision was booking two nights at The Ford in Bonane, just outside of Kenmare. On an 11 day trip with lots of B&B stays, it was our favorite. A beautiful location, a lovely home, a fantastic room with the most comfortable bed and en-suite. Our host Lisa was warm and welcoming and is a woman with many talents. We were lucky that one of them was making us the best Irish breakfasts of our trip! Thank you so much Lisa, for a wonderful stay.

Positive: The property itself and surrounding countryside was beautiful
Negative: Our room was very small. Only one usable plug in the room. I had to crouch to dry my hair and see in the mirror.
Summary: I think we would have enjoyed our stay more if our hostess would have interacted with us. Upon our arrival, we were rush
