Barrow Lodge

Clodaugh is a goddess of hospitality. If you want to see someone in the tourism industry who is great at her job, come here. We had an apartment. Nice deck for morning tea. Good view of the water. Unique tree with a natural cistern in the middle. Nice water patio too. Walking distance to Tralee golf course, though steep uphill for about 300 meters.

Just back from the most wonderful stay at Barrow Lodge and I honestly can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, Clodagh and her lovely family made me feel so genuinely welcome — the kind of warmth you don’t often come across. The accommodation was beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious (all homemade and full of love), and the views… truly spectacular. There’s a calm, peaceful atmosphere that makes you instantly feel at home. It’s a very special place in a very special location — the kind of spot that stays with you. I’d go back for the hospitality alone. Already counting the days until my next visit! 💛

We were recommended Barrow Lodge for our stay in Tralee, wow, in all of my 70 years, I have never experienced a welcoming as incredible as this! Clodagh, who owns Barrow Lodge, is so warm and welcoming and is everything you have ever heard about how friendly and beautiful the Irish community are. The rooms are lovely and spacious and clean, the beds are large and comfortable, as are the pillows and the view from the rooms are a pleasure on the eyes. Our breakfast was wonderful; Alex the cook is not only a brilliant cook, she too is a warm lovely lady and her home made bread and cakes are so tasty. If you are travelling to the most beautiful part of Ireland, this is the place to base yourself and if you like golf (not for us) it is five minutes walk from Tralee golf course. So basically you’ll be in heaven. But my recommendation, is that to feel welcome and wanted and relaxed, Clodagh is the person. When we return there is no question of where we are staying, it’s Barrow Lodge, 100%. Thank you Clodagh and Alex, you made my wife and I, and our friends feel so welcome, you warmed our hearts xxx.

I can’t say enough about this property and especially the owner. Very personable and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and the recommendation for dinner was exactly the cap off of a wonderful day. The bed was warm and inviting and comfortable. Loved sitting at the window looking out at the sea. Great place to unwind.
