“First class.”
+Unique, cosy, relaxing and friendly accommodation ideally located for our exploration of that part of Northern Ireland. I enjoyed my interesting conversations with James. We have travelled the world and stayed in some of the best hotels and I can say without any doubt the breakfasts at Ballymote Country House were the best I’d ever had in all our travels.

“Warm and generous welcome in a beautiful country house.”
+James and Nicola were so welcoming… as was Nia, the dog. James invited us in and once we were settled he gave us tea and shortbread in the drawing room. Ballymote house was beautiful, very comfortable and felt like home. We loved the spacious bedroom, the view from the room, cozy big bed, all the little touches : tea tray with homemade shortbread, generous pitcher of water and bottles by the bedside, a torch by the bed, bottle opener, lots of lovely toiletries in the bathroom and even hygiene products. All so thoughtful. There were multiple books, maps and tourist information available on the landing and James stated he would be happy to provide us with any information we required. The breakfast was delicious … home made apricot compote, muesli and warm bread. There was a generous amount of other breads, jams, fruit and cooked breakfast as well. All very tasty. James was generous with the time he spent talking to us and we appreciated this. Staying in Ballymote House was such a warm and welcoming experience. We highly recommend it and hope to return. Thank you James and Nicola.
−We liked everything.

“BEAUTIFUL Country Manor Home with Delightful Hosts”
+The Ballymote Country House was just lovely. Beautifully appointed, clean, comfortable and with charming hosts. We very much enjoyed our stay and would strongly recommend it. The rooms were wonderful and there was a nice reading area in the hallway outside of our rooms. Lots of interesting books and historical materials. The house dates to the early 1700s and has lots of character. It is also on land with lots of horses. Nicola and James were delightful---and Nicola made us an absolutely wonderful Irish breakfast. Thank you for an amazing stay and we will definitely be back!
