Not a B&B. More like a nice hostel w/no breaky.
This place is advertised as a B&B, but we were told *only after we arrived* that they were not serving breakfast anymore - and that they had not been for a year (after the death of one of the owners).
Catherine, the owner who met us and let us check in early was so kind and friendly, l'm reluctant to say anything negative, but unfortunately, the place was not as nice.
For the same price: 180€, we had a large modern room and a glorious breakfast at the Hotel Killarney just a few nights before. With no breakfast, and an older space with seriously tiny rooms, I can’t say Torine House was worth anything close to 180€.
Our double room consisted of two very small alcove-like connected rooms: so small that once we put our suitcases on the floor (because there was no other place to put them), there was hardly any room to walk around - the slanted ceilings were hard for us to maneuver too. (We anre of anverage height, and we each bumped our heads multiple times.) Both little alcoves had a bathroom (which I confess was a bonus), but the showers were so tiny we could hardly move in them. We both commented that they felt like tiny phone booths (remember those?). I can't imagine how a larger bodied person would do in there; would they even be able to move at all? Unlikely.
So, while Catherine was a kind host, the Torine house was a disappointment for us -had it been priced and advertised as an upscale hostel w/no breakfast, we might not have been surprised and disappointed.

Disappointed.
When we arrived we spoke to the proprietor. Firstly we had been advised to pay by card but was asked to pay cash and asked to go to town and get cash. We then had a conversation about our booking and was advised we had booked just a room not B&B. I said that wasn't clear but maybe I had assumed wrong. It was advertised as a B&B and there was no mention of extra for breakfast. I was assured I had booked room only but then told if I had booked breakfast it wasn't available as chef had called in sick.
There was tea/coffee making in the room but when we made a cup in the morning the milk had gone off so we left without even a drink.

Lovely Torine
Catherine was a lovely host. The small town of Killorglin was wonderful and a short walk from the house. The garden at Torine House was absolutely beautiful. Even though we only stayed 1 night I would definitely stay again!

Comfy quiet B&B
Stayed 1 night on my Ring of Kerry road trip and it served my purposes quite well. Free parking on site, breakfast available but optional (I don't typically eat until noon so I'm just as happy not to pay for it if I won't be hungry), easy walk to the small downtown area with restaurants & shops. The room was comfy and just what I needed for a brief stay. The bathroom for my room was in the hallway just next door, though some rooms may have en suite. I did have a sink though, which was convenient. The hostess was friendly and very helpful, but stayed out of the way if not needed. Good value and comfy place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay here. The staff was so welcoming and so nice, we felt safe, and the place was so charming.
Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Here’s the good: there was a kitchen with a refrigerator and microwave available. And another bathroom. Here’s the BAD: there is no breakfast. The owner disappeared after the first day. Towels were musty and small. The room was tiny, Especially bathroom very small. Shop around in this area before booking this B&B.

On our trip through Ireland, this B&B was by far the worst. There was no breakfast, although the accommodation is advertised as ‘Bed and BREAKFAST’. Nevertheless, it is clearly forbidden to take food into the room. It is possible to use a tiny kitchen, but you have to clean it yourself. Finally we had to skip our breakfast because we didn‘t know all this. The surroundings are unkempt and nowhere near as idyllic as depicted on the website. The rooms were reasonably clean, but cold - temperature and “atmosphere” - , the beds very uncomfortable. And all this for 125 €... clearly not acceptable. We find questionable that the official website ‘B&B Ireland’ even suggests this accommodation.
