Maryville Bed & Breakfast

My wife and I had spent 10 days touring Dublin and the "Southern Loop" of popular Irish coastal towns. We desperately needed a break from the crowds of tourists in mid July before we returned to Dublin for our flight out. The small town of Nenagh was a good mid point to help us break up the drive between Dingle and Dublin. We chose The Maryville B & B for our night of solitude. What a wonderful choice it turned out to be! Our hosts greeted us with a warm "Irish Family" reception and showed us their lovely home. The guest section of their home was was spacious and included a large sitting room. Beds were comfortable and the bathroom was meticulously set up. The "Irish Breakfast" in the morning was delicious and prepared to order. Oh, and our night's sleep...... quiet and peaceful. Two other great draws for the B &B is the restaurant a block away and Lake, lough Derg, a short 5 minute drive away.

A cozy little bed and breakfast with two incredibly kind owners. Mary and William are very friendly hosts who, from the very beginning, try to make your stay as pleasant as possible. William's tips about the surrounding area and restaurants are also excellent. The rooms are charmingly furnished and have everything you need. We also really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the B&B. The lovingly prepared, generous breakfast deserves special mention. kind regards / Üdvözlettel / viele Grüße from Hamburg & Budapest Moni & Tim

The room itself was dated but adequate for our planned two-night stay. However, during the visit we became increasingly uncomfortable due to the hosts’ behavior. Shortly after arriving, we could hear the hosts loudly yelling to each other throughout the house. Although they did not appear to be arguing, it created an uncomfortable atmosphere for guests. More concerning was that the hosts repeatedly entered our room while we were away from the property. At first, we assumed housekeeping had simply tidied the room. However, after multiple occasions where our personal belongings had clearly been moved and rearranged, we became uncomfortable with the situation. On our final day, we returned to find that the window shades had been closed and more of our belongings had been moved again while we were out. Only afterward were we told there had been a funeral nearby and that they preferred to keep the shades closed out of respect. This had never been communicated to us beforehand, and no permission had been requested before entering the room again. The repeated entry into our room and handling of our personal belongings without notice or consent felt invasive and inappropriate, and ultimately caused us to leave early as we did not feel safe.
