This was a gathering from the us and we met at Connie wonderful home.From the original house to the horses in the yard we couldn't have been happier. Connie met us at the house and explained all the workings. She anticipated what we would need and had it all there. A welcome basket, activities for the kids and all the hot water and towels we could use. There was ample space for us to gather and to be seperated. Thank you Connie for making our stay so enjoyable.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Ballycumber House. Connie is wonderful and took great care in showing us around the house and property. I’d highly recommend the stay and be sure to head down to Gussies for a pint or two. Thank you Connie!

We love Ballycumber House! From the moment we drove up we knew this was going to be an exceptional experience. We were greeted by Connie ( Ballycumber owner) and shown the house and given a wonderful picnic basket full of all the food necessities to get us through the first day of breakfasts ( and more!). Connie also gave us a brief history of her home and left tons of information about things to do in the surrounding area. The house and grounds are spectacular . You feel as if you are living in a different era, but with all the modern comforts.
Our entire family felt so privileged to have had this experience . Thank you Connie for providing us with this magical stay.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2021
The house is very special with its history. Connie can tell you all about. She is a great host, problems get solved very quickly. We loved the house, although it is old and has his special atmosphere. We used the tennis court, became friends with the horses and enjoyed. Each morning fresh bread at Gussie's, a 2 minute walk from the house. A nice outdoor area with more chairs would make it easier for the whole group to eat in the garden...
