Each individually furnished room at Muxnaw Lodge has a TV and tea and coffee facilities, and is traditionally furnished with antiques, solid wood wardrobes and dressing tables. Some of the modern en suite bathrooms look out over the gardens, and all have baths and power showers.

A wonderful estate located in a quiet part of the town, walking distance to the town centre with all amenities, restaurants and pubs. We loved the room, and the comfortable bed. The hostess was lovely, and breakfast was delicious. Can't recommend it enough!

    We were returning to Valhalla BnB after our 2022's stay. Again for 3 nights. An awesome stay again. Such a beautiful place. It felt like coming home. Barry and Jens are courteous hosts. The room was in a superb condition as well as the whole BnB. We liked the chats at breakfast even though they were busy to make it an experience for us. Again "The cake of the day" was outstanding. Talk to them to get advise for your trips at the Ring of Kerry it is worth it. We'll definitely come back ! Hugs and love from Hamburg ;-)

    Incredible welcome and very high standard quality room of style and equally matched by a very standard of service. Fantastic breakfast choice and again the quality outstanding. Genuine host (Lucy) seeking to provide perfection for her guests that is equal to and dare I say better than a 5 star hotel at super value.
