Reviews for Grove House Bed & Breakfast
Review 1:Everything was perfect no faults from me or my husband
Review 2:Friendly and made feel at home and a great hearty breakfast all our wants were catered for can't wait to stay again in the future
Review 3:There were no elements of this I did not like.
Review 4:The venue was immaculate, comfortable and welcoming. The owner was friendly and welcoming. The location was perfect for a leisurely stroll to the local pub and shops.
Review 5:Hot breakfast was lovely but I felt the selection of fruit etc could have been better...though in saying that, we were the last down so it was possibly our own fault!!
Review 6:Bedroom gorgeous! More like an upmarket hotel room.
Review 7:We did not feel relaxed.First time in B&B and felt like a guest in someone's home.
Review 8:Clean and comfortable, lovely decor throughout. Spotless bathroom.
Review 9:Nothing
Review 10:Very comfortable room with lots of space and very clean in quiet location. Staff very attentive and welcoming. Breakfast included for a reasonable price.
Review 11:A bit noisy our first night as our room was close to the front door and there were a few guests coming and going. Nice and quiet for the other two nights.
Review 12:Excellent location with ample parking available. Really good breakfast and spotlessly clean comfortable room.
Review 13:On the morning of check-out, I was informed that I was charged for 3 adults, and not the 2 adults and 1 child as per my reservation. This was due to me using a third party booking agency, outside the control of Grove House. Phone Grove House and book direct with them to get a better deal than online booking.
Review 14:The accommodation was great, with a central location for going into town. Staff were very helpful and friendly, and totally flexible. Highly recommended for all sorts of trips.
Review 15:Unfriendly.. No welcome hospitality was little to none.. In fact if this was a hotel I would have been complaining to management I would never stay or recommend to anyone.. owner was extremely rude and needs to be trained in customer service..
Review 16:Location
Review 17:The B&B itself was a beautiful and modern house and we received a lovely welcome. The room was beautifully decorated and comfortable. We enjoyed a lovely relaxing breakfast overlooking the gardens outside. The B&B was also within walking distance to the village and had good parking facilities, yet was quiet at night.
Review 18:The downstairs wifi repeater at the front of the house wasn't operating properly, so the WiFi was pretty bad in our room.
Review 19:Great location, tasty breakfast, friendly staff.
Review 20:Can't fault it.
Review 21:Excellent location with lots of secure parking. Immaculate room which was beautifully presented. Breakfast was cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend.
Review 22:travelled down for a 1 night stay at the last minute. Had a large room and our every need was catered for. Short work into town for food. All in all very pleasant. Breakfast was good the next morning
Review 23:Everything - excellent place bedroom comfortable. Very clean and tidy. Breakfast excellent. Wendy is efficient and was very welcoming. Nothing too much trouble.
Review 24:The room was l lovely and bright, very clean & comfortable, the breakfasts were really good, set you up for whatever the day had in store. Wendy was very helpful & an excellent host, we couldn't have asked for better.
Review 25:Wendy (the proprietor) is a very welcoming & genial host. Spotlessly clean & beautifully furnished B & B. Great breakfast! Would have no hesitation in recommending this B & B to travellers.
Review 26:The property is a little too far from the town centre for walking to restaurants, etc.
Review 27:The en-suite bedroom was spacious with good storage. The breakfast room was large and well laid out with a range of food options. Very good on-site parking. The owner was an attentive, very pleasant person.
Review 28:The house was lovely, very friendly and breakfast was beautiful. It was on the outskirts of the town but still only a 5 min walk. will return. Stunning views and walks.
Review 29:Wonderful immaculately clean guesthouse located within a 5 minute walk from the village. Wendy & her husband were friendly, kind & courteous especially when I mislaid my car keys & they went out of their way to assist me.
Review 30:We were greeted quite abrurptly by house owner (I don't think she realised we were guests). She was nice the next day but i feel we could have been given better customer service.
Review 31:Lovely guest house
Review 32:Received a very friendly reception from Wendy at Grove House. House and bedroom spotless and all needs cared for. Will definitely use Grove House again for B&B.
Review 33:We stayed for two nights. One of the best B&Bs we've ever stayed in. Very spacious room and ensuite bathroom with a great shower, large screen TV, comfortable bed, the breakfast was really nice with lots of choices. Wendy the owner was friendly and helpful. Tea & Coffee making facilties. Room was always warm and spotlessly clean. We honestly could not fault it. It's about a 10 /15 min walk into town. Shame all B&Bs aren't like this.
Review 34:I had a very pleasant stay at this B&B. Staff were very extremely friendly, the house and garden were beautiful, and it is only a short walk from the centre. I would highly recommend this place and will be returning again next year for the Carlingford Half Marathon.
Review 35:The lady that served us breakfast wasn't very friendly, a smile would have been nice!!!!
Review 36:Wendy the owner was an absolute pleasure to deal with. She made our stay in Carlingford a very memorable one.
Review 37:I'd be nice if there was some fresh fruit with breakfast (instead of canned ones), but it's not really an issue since breakfast was delicious.
Review 38:Big room, big bathroom, big bedroom. And what's most important - super clean!!!
Review 39:Bed a standard double and a little soft
Review 40:Helpful lady let us check in a bit earlier for a wedding. Good size room Warm and cosy Clean Good Breakfast Good shower Gorgeous area, well worth a visit
Review 41:Nothing! A great place to stay!
Review 42:A beautiful B&B. Lovely modern home, clean, bright and fresh. Beautifully decorated and lovely furnishings. The owner was really caring, friendly and professional. The breakfast was really excellent.
Review 43:Room beautiful, comfortable and very well presented. Car parking very convenient and B&B close to hotel for wedding we were attending. No need for taxi as we were able to walk. Will definitely stay here again.
Review 44:Wifi was so slow that it was not usable. No bath. No shower cap provided. House decor quite out-dated. Breakfast nice but nothing special.
Review 45:The building and grounds were impressive. Friendly owner. Room lovely and warm.
Review 46:Wendy, our host, made us very welcome and certainly the accommodation and breakfast were not to be faulted The guest house and location are beautiful - thank you. We will be back!
Review 47:Room was teeny tiny for the money as was a double and a single but should just be a twin or a double Not sure of the prices elsewhere in the area but for a B&B this seemed excessive
Review 48:Very welcoming host and the rooms were spotless!
Review 49:Everything. Very welcoming host. Spotlessly clean. Excellent full Irish breakfast or a wide choice of alternatives if required. If you're thinking of taking a trip to Carlingford you would be very hard pressed to find better accommodation
Review 50:Double bed was tiny So we hardly slept at all as a result. Expensive for a b&b that's a bit out of town
Review 51:Lovely friendly welcome, great breakfast, big room, super clean
Review 52:Warm welcome beautiful room and excellent breakfast. Nice quiet location but close enough to centre of town. A lot nicer than a few so called 4* hotels i have have been in lately.
Review 53:no bath
Review 54:excellent location handy walking distance to centre room lovely and good size tea /coffee making facilities TV good to see news etc breakfast selection excellent particularly liked plums yogurt muesli Wendy very nice and helpful
Review 55:Wifi was very poor and unpredictable so maybe not suited to anyone eager to send emails etc.
Review 56:2 minute drive, 10 minute walk from town centre. Left to own devices but with clear invite to ask owner for anything we wanted, anytime.
Review 57:Perfect accomodation for our needs. Situated at the edge of beautiful Carlingford. Easy stroll into town for great restaurants and some interesting shops and sight seeing. Breakfast was just right in a comfortable dining room. Our room had a lovely outlook and was a pleasure return to.
Review 58:Being asked to decide today what I want for breakfast tomorrow. If I book a table at a restaurant they don't ask me to order the meal 12 hours in advance.
Review 59:Spacious room, comfortable bed
Review 60:We are a group of mature women, who are relatively easy to please, however most of us found the owner was at best civil to us. The breakfast menu looked good but a number of items were unavailable and others such as wheaten bread was only provided when requested. It was August and the fruit on offer for breakfast was stewed rhubarb! stewed prunes, chopped watermelon and sliced grapefruit! one of the worst selections of fruit I have ever seen on offer in a b and b. The family room that two of my friends and I shared was a suitable size for two people not three.
Review 61:The location was fairly central and there was adequate parking. The house was clean and the grounds were lovely.
Review 62:Attitude of landlady because we didnt leave a menu out for her for breakfast. we were paying top dollar for a bed and breakfast and this attitude was unacceptable. Would not stay again because of this and as we both work hard this one night break was great but this put a spoiler on it.
Review 63:Room excellent Grounds excellent
Review 64:Pictures on website a little deceiving
