Riversdale Country House

I can not recommend riversdale enough. The minute you drive down the driveway you know you have found the perfect place. Wilson is the best host we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He goes above and beyond to make your stay perfect he can't do enough for you from ideas to places to visit to making you feel at home. The rooms are amazing and spotless amazing breakfast just all round beautiful. And it's an ideal location so close to everything I will be back here for sure Thank you so much for everything Wilson.

After reading reviews I was very excited to stay here for my birthday and enjoy all the surrounding area. Unfortunatlely when we arrived at the set time of 3pm for our reservation no one was home. There was a business card left attached to the doorbell with the owners name and number which I called 3 times with no answer. I called the wifes number listed on my reservation slip and the home number all with no answer and sent an email to the business address with still no reply. We drove off to explore some of the area, which was wonderful, and 3 h ours later decided maybe they were working or out and about themselves and stopped in again. This time my husband accidently went the wrong way to leave and Wilson was just around the corner in his car. When we pulled up next to him he said they were closed. When I told him we had reservations you could tell he felt bad and actually said "I completely forgot about that" . Very sad way to run a business- an e-mail prior to arrival would have been greatly appreciated so other accomadations could be planned! We left and went to the Ballyliffin Lodge who had one room left - the honeymoon suite "bridal" which cost $250 but hey I got a jacuzzi tub and huge room for birthday. All is grand in Ireland :-) Now to call the B&B company and get my prepaid money refunded.

I chanced upon Riversdale by following the local signs. What a find! Although I had no booking and arrived late in the evening, Wilson was extremely accommodating. My room was beautiful, clean, comfortable and quiet. Breakfast was delicious, more on offer than I could eat. If I am in the area again I would definitely stay here and would highly recommend it.

Although we didnt get to stay very long at Riversdale, we enjoyed our time. Wilson was a very helpful and gracious host. Very knowledgeable about the area as well with great dinner recommendations and sight seeing opportunities. The room was lovely and fit all 4 of us comfortably. And the breakfast in the morning was a delight. Thank you!
