Guest reviews
Skellys averages 4.7 out of 5 across 472 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
The owner was very kind and accommodating, I had a wonderful time here with my boyfriend and I enjoyed the little market the following morning too. If I go to visit Ballymahon again and I'll be staying here. the price includes breakfast and a lovely charming pub. Great service and great atmosphere.
Booked this to attend a BBQ that was on the site and meet some friends who live local. It was initially booked out but Seamas squeezed us in last minute. Service was great and was more like staying in a friends house than a guest house. Will Definitely return if only to sample the local brew.
