We have been blessed with excellent B&Bs during our Ireland trip, and the Nymphsfield House is right up there with the best. Mary is such a wonderful host and very friendly. Our room was spacious, very quiet, and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was excellent, with several different choices. There is also a little shared coffee / tea area on the second floor. The surrounding grounds of this B&B are incredible, wonderful little gardens everywhere. This is a nice, peaceful place to stay just outside of Cong.

We stayed in some really nice B&B's whilst in Ireland and have found ourselves giving top marks to several but Nymphsfield House was our favourite for a number of reasons but the main one was our hostess, Mary, who couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful. We were not alone in our views and met other guests who expressed very similar opinions. Breakfast time at Nymphsfield House was a very sociable occasion for us with plenty of friendly chatter with other guests, some of whom were staying there for work reasons and others on holiday like ourselves. Some clearly stayed there on a regular basis. We had a comfortable room with two easy chairs so we could both sit and read but there was also a communal area upstairs where we could get tea, coffee and biscuits if we wanted them. The house is very close to Cong village and Ashford Castle, the former home of the Guinness family and now a hotel. In fact Nymphsfield House may be the nearest house to the Castle entrance. The castle is very dramatic and boasts its own 9 hole golf course that is open to non residents. The Cong river, containing salmon and trout, runs close to the castle and the village of Cong is very picturesque. In the future my wife and I plan on returning to Nymphsfield House for a longer stay and look forward to doing so.

Nothing. For us it was an ideal B&B.

This is a lovely property, in a nice quiet location. There was ample parking to the side of the building. Mary, our host, was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. The room was a very good size, with a view over the surrounding fields. The breakfast was lovely, with a full choice of options, including a full Irish breakfast (which I had on most mornings!). The tea station on the landing was also a very nice touch. Thank you for the biscuit selection as well. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, and will stay again next time we are visiting.

Nothing.

I’d a lovely stay here while attending a wedding. Very comfortable and clean room, bright and airy. Lots of little extras available for guests, water cooler, tea/coffee/snacks. I’m coeliac and there was plenty of gluten free options available at breakfast. Cereal, fruit, yogurts. Cooked breakfast was delicious! The owners were so lovely and friendly and even dropped me into Cong for the evening party! Would love to stay again : )

We have stayed in several hotels and condos on our long travel through Ireland. This is far and away the best we have experienced. Mary is an incredible host with such a beautiful home that she shares with guests. We stayed two nights and wished we could have spent many more. You will never find a better breakfast! We are so happy to have found this lovely place and highly recommended it. If it's available, book it now!

This is a well run establishment that know how to treat guest. It is conveniently for travel and visiting in area. Met with fresh coffee, nicely appointed room within house. Self contained ensuite. Small sitting area for guests with coffee, cookies, pamphlets and books. Hosts have knowledge of area and are just the right amount of friendly. Quiet, easy to find, good parking, and great breakfast options.

Nothing really not to love about this place.
