    There was nothing not to like.

    Big easily accessible car park reached by a short drive off the main road. A friendly welcome from Annette who showed us our huge room with a very comfortable bed and a big seating area. The en suite was large with twin basins, a bath and a walk in shower. The view out of the double aspect window was over open farmland with the lake and mountains in the distance. Breakfast was cooked to order and always delicious 😋. A really superlative room and stay!

    That we stayed there only two nights and not longer.

    Beautiful country house in quiet Fossa, just outside Killarney and very close to Killarney golf club. Great view of lake Lein , relaxing garden outside where you can see Ross castle. Spacious and clean rooms. Good breakfast.

    I loved everything about our stay at Loch Lein. I would stay again for sure and highly recommend it to anyone staying in the Killarney area.

    It was exquisite, a very special stay. Paul and Annette were warm and the ultimate professionals, always making sure we were taken care of. The house is on Loch Lein and backdropped by the McGillicuddy Reeks mountain range so the views are stunning. I particularly LOVED the locale since it was literally minutes from everything (Gap of Dunloe, Carantoohil, Killarney’s city center, St. Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney National Park, the Franciscan Friary, the Muckross Spa…) yet not at “ground zero” so the retreat was peaceful and relaxing. There is comfortable lawn furniture as well, in the gardens for further relaxation and comfort. The hotel ALSO boasts a bar and restaurant which is quite superb. We LOVED our stay at Loch Lein.

    The property is a beautiful little country house in an equally beautiful location. The hosts and staff are absolutely lovely and most helpful. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful and Annette never turned down a request for a cup of tea or a drink at the bar no matter when we asked. Our stay here was genuinely lovely.

    Nothing at all comes to mind - it was all good.

    The hotel is in a delightful position, overlooking a lake. The hosts are lovely people, as are their staff. We felt very welcome the moment we arrived and that impression remained throughout our stay. The rooms were beautifully decorated and well appointed. There were comfortable places to sit and enjoy a drink and a perusal of all the interesting books placed on the tables. The food was outstanding and the attention of the staff left nothing to be desired. We would definitely recommend it to anyone because we know they would not be disappointed.
