eduardo2024-07-30Charming accommodation It is a bed and breakfast with great charm beautifully decorated that makes you feel at home and your host. Tom, always attentive to all your needs and helping you in any way he can. I've found myself at home. It is certainly an accommodation to come back and recommend it to my friends and acquaintances to stay. At a gastronomic level the breakfasts are fabulous.Verified

Emma G2024-06-08Looking for a place in Carlow? Stop! You have found it. I can't put into works how amazing the guesthouse is, they have truly thought of everything. The house, grounds and shared spaces are lovely. The rooms and ensuite are spacious, with everything you could ever need. The extras really help when traveling with cabin baggage, as was the water as I am forever forgetting to buy some for at night. The Irish breakfast is phenomenal and it filled us, and we have big appetites. We sat in the garden at night and it's was so tranquil after a day exploring. The host are outstanding, they take a genuine interest in their guests without feeling intrusive. My trip to Carlow was a special one and the Avlon Guesthouse experience added so much to it. We are already planning to try and coming back later this year, staying again at the Avlon and using it as a based to explore more of S.E Ireland.Verified
Franko_McK2024-06-03Best Guest House in Carlow - Quality Stayed for two nights and genuninly feel this is one of the best guest houses I have ever stayed in. You receive a great welcome from when you arrive and the rooms and guest house itself is beautiful. The room we stayed in is very spacious and immaculate. The bed itself is the most comfiest I have ever slept in. There is also little touches like a selection of toileteries that were ideal for when you are away and the wifi service in the rooms is excellent. There is also a beautiful garden area out back with water features, flowers and ornaments we loved. The breakfast service in the morning was quality with a brilliant selection of foods. This guest house will always be our go to place to stay when in Carlow. I cannot thank them enough for how good our stay was during out time in Ireland.Verified
Breandan J2024-05-24Avlon House BnB Tom is an excellent host with a very keen eye for detail that makes all the difference to your stay. Immaculately presented accommodation, a breakfast that is to die for especially the scrambled eggs and smoked salmon. Fantastic choice and brilliant value for money. Hope to see you again soon. Well done. Puts all other bnbs to shameVerified

Vacation502879402482024-04-29Beyond the best! Our experience at Avlon House has been excellent. It far exceeded our expectations. It has been a great experience, all the details are very well taken care of. The best full Irish breakfast we have had on our Irish holidays. We highly recommend it. Thanks to Tom for his hospitality.Verified
Laganas20102024-04-02Delightful stay, highly recommend Delightful stay at the Avlon. The room was comfortable and clean and I enjoyed 3 nights of fantastic sleep. Tom was accommodating and helpful. You’ll enjoy a personal touch at the Avlon you won’t find at the larger hotels/chains. Breakfast was well catered and generous, including the various dietary requirements and restrictions my family presents. Perfect location for a stroll into town and far enough away from the hustle and bustle for a peaceful night's sleep. The shower broke during our stay. It was immediately fixed while we were out for the evening. Very impressed, highly recommend and I look forward to another stay soon.

James Murphy2024-06-04Everything one would hope to experience at an Irish B&B! Lovely room, quaint garden for enjoying an afternoon glass of wine behind the house. Located conveniently on the Dublin Road and a short stroll into Carlow town. We were very pleased with our stay at Avlon House and hope to visit again when our travels take us to the area.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
