Amazing! B&B in a modern house just walking distance from the centre of Kenmare with its bars, restaurants and a wide variety of shops. The Brambles provided a spacious room with ensuite and a separate guests' lounge. The view over the valley while you have breakfast is amazing. Amazing value, too. Ann and Ken did everything they could to make... More

We had the ground floor room which was very pleasant. The home is 8 yrs old, built & designed by Ann's husband Ken, & is... More

First thing you notice is the beauty of this modern home. The details (floors, doors, etc.) and decor are wonderful! Ann and Ken are extremely friendly, warm people who make you feel at home. The breakfast was delicious -- loved the homemade marmalade. Would DEFINITELY recommend this place and would stay again in a heartbeat! Thanks so much! More

Me and my husband we stayed in The Brambles in July and we absolutely loved it!!! We came in and straight away we got a really warm welcome from Ann and Ken! They were really helpful and lovely! The room that we got was spotless and we had a great sleep and great breakfast! We will definitely come back here... More

All six of us French/Irish/American mixed family stayed at the Brambles for three nights; we had three superb double rooms with en suite showers very clean and beautiful. The location is just outside Kenmare but after a meal in town in the evening it was nice to walk back to the Brambles. In the morning we had a choice of... More

We stayed one night in a beautiful modern room. We weren't within walking distance of Kenmare so we drove into town for a walk and dinner. It was very nice and Ann was very helpful. Breakfast was fantastic in a beautiful room! More

After a long day driving the Ring of Kerry, we arrived at The Brambles, very tired and somewhat bummed by the sudden onset of pouring rain. Ann met us at the door and our spirits were immediately lifted by the dazzling warmth of her personality. While we ate a scrumptious breakfast in the beautiful surroundings of Ken and Ann's very...

Brambles B&B is just a short distance from town centre. The rooms are huge and very modern designed and highly comfortable. The bathroom is really spacious.

We arrived quiet late and were still treated... More
