We had a wonderful stay. Terri is very warm and welcoming and we felt right at home. We had a great sleep and Terri’s homemade breakfast was delicious.
Brigitte, 1-night trip

Very hospitable, excellent breakfast! Rooms very clean, comfortable and cute. Gravel road dusty, but worth going out of the way to get there!
Dawn, 2-night trip

Off the beaten track but that’s what we found appealing. Very friendly, attentive and informative host.
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Terri was warm welcoming as was her home. Our room was lovely and clean with a comfy bed. An upstairs sitting area offered a fridge and coffee/tea maker. A delicious hearty breakfast with French press coffee got our day started. This is a charming old farmhouse off the beaten path with beautiful lake views.

This was our first stay at a B&B. The owner was very hospitable. Our room was quaint and the bed was comfortable. The over all country charm was very nice. Breakfast was served at a time of our choosing. Would consider staying again.

One of the best stays EVER!
Could not have asked for more! Lovely quiet setting, with very loving crew of creatures great and small. Terri was a delight and served a full, fabulous breakfast. The place was in tip top shape.

Off the beaten path but worth finding
Very nice, clean, friendly place. The Innkeeper, Terri, was charming and gave us great advice about places to go and, especially, good places to eat. She also prepares a great breakfast herself. The B and B is on a working farm, which we found interesting. A little out of the way, but worth it.
Stuart, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This B&B is a little off the beaten path but so worth it for a restful, quiet stay that feels like a home away from home.
Sibylle, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful stay at See Weed and Sod B&B! Terri, our host, went above and beyond with her warm hospitality, making us feel instantly at home. Each morning, she treated us to a delightful, homestyle breakfast that was both hearty and delicious—a perfect way to start our day. The time spent with the animals made our stay even more memorable. Ralfie the cat was such a joy, Chewy’s friendly nature brightened our days, Fauna the farm dog was a lovely companion, and meeting Lady, the beautiful horse, was truly special. We couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming experience. Thank you, Terri, Ralfie, Chewy, Fauna, and Lady, for making our stay unforgettable!

Terrible miss you and Ralphie already! What a magjcal place. Seanad coming through the window at night, cute animals everywhere, lots of room and privacy. I hope to see you again one day!

We arrived as guests, and left feeling like we were leaving home. My wife says, if we didn't have a dog waiting for us we wouldn't go back! I'm not sure what else I could give as higher praise. Yes, the drive out from the bottom of Kempt Head is a touch long, but the drive is a part of the journey and the road starts to feel like your driveway!

A real farm house B&B. Adults had a wonderful sleep in the comfy beds and kids loved the animals. We all had a yummy breakfast with warm hospitality. Highly recommended.

Great hosts! The farm animals are also so friendly. The rooms are beautiful. The house is perfect. And the view and sunsets are spectacular.

8/10 Very good

My only regret about choosing this stay was how far out of the way it was. The host was very nice and I loved getting to hang out with her cats and dog. The property was clean, quiet, and comfortable.
Stefanie, 2-night trip

We have a lovely stay and Terri’s breakfast was amazing. The farm was picturesque. The hostess is such fun to chat with and makes you feel right at home. Book directly if you can, it’s a small business. We will be back.
