Excellent room and facilities, superb shower! Great food and a lovely atmosphere created by Shiela and Brian who are pleased to help and make sure you are very welcome at all times. Sarah was fantastic behind the bar and kept the log fire well stoked and can pull a mean pint of Guinness! I would highly recommend this for anyone. Great drying facilities for out fishing kit and a really good walk in cold room for the bait. Nothing to dislike at all. We will be back and a huge thank you to everyone. Many thanks Brian and Iain

Off road parking lovely rooms fantastic hostess. Nothing too much trouble, very friendly. Well worth a stay. Cater for anglers including drying room. Great place to stay. Easy to find in Bawnboy.
The keepers Arms was very nice and clean. I was welcomed by very pleasant staff and the owners. The weather was bitterly cold and it was really nice to enter a toasted warm room. I had a nice pint of Guinness downstairs beside a nice warm stove. A very pleasant breakfast greeted me in the morning. Thank you again for your hospitality during my stay in Bawnboy,Co Cavan
