Leim Siar Bed & Breakfast

What a wonderful place to stay. The landlady is very very caring and serves the best scones you can wish for. The rooms are super and the house offers plenty of space to sit, relax and have a cuppa. If you seek quiteness, plain nature and the wild atlantic feeling, you are at the right place. you might even get to take a swim. We had a good craic.

A Delightful Stay with Wonderful Hosts I had the pleasure of staying at Leim Siar, a charming B&B guesthouse during my recent trip, and I can't say enough good things about the experience. From the moment I arrived, Hannah and Gerry greeted my family and I warmly and made us feel right at home. The guesthouse itself is beautifully maintained, with cozy and comfortable accommodations. But what truly sets this place apart are the hosts themselves. Hannah and Gerry are some of the kindest, most genuine people I've had the pleasure of meeting. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was exceptional, offering wonderful recommendations for local attractions, dining in the near by town of Belmullet, and activities, and of course the convenience of enjoying a drink 2 minutes walk away at Una’s pub. I was touched by their genuine care and hospitality. They truly embody the spirit of a proper B&B - friendly, attentive, and committed to making their guests feel special. I left feeling not just satisfied, but inspired by their wonderful spirit and the warmth of their welcome. I highly recommend Leim Siar B&B guesthouse to anyone looking for a delightful home-away-from-home experience with fabulous hosts. I know I'll be returning the next chance I get.

Wow wow host was lovely good chat and recommendations. It is very near the end so lovely views (stunning views). No restaurant nearby so eat before you arrive. Perfect set up lovely clean rooms seemed fairly new. Use of a guest lounge which was large with stunning views. Breakfast yummy and lots of fresh choice. We have stayed in Ireland for 13 days in 13 different B and B. This was the best by a long way.

To describe it in one word: Lovely. The rooms are quite spacious, the beds are comfy and there's a TV in every room. Everything was very clean, especially the bathrooms. Hanna, the host, is like a full time grandma for everyone. One breakfast, and your stomach is full for the rest of the day. Their dog, Solas, is a very gentle and really active being, and can always be cuddled. The place itself is far away from any big village or city, so it's perfect to take some days off and relax. There also is a community room, for all the people to sit in and play board games together. The beaches in the area are nice as well, despite the Atlantic being very cold. Dolphins and Whales aren't an uncommon thing to see tho, so a trip to the beach is worth it anyways. There are a lot of hiking trails in the area, many going by cliffs or beaches. The weather can change really quick, so always have a jacket in reach. All in all I'm very pleased with my experience, 10/10.

We chose this B&B as we were doing a mini tour of the surrounding area. We were not disappointed. A very warm welcome from our host Hannah, access to a shared lounge area with stove and TV, kitchen area for making tea's and coffee's in the evening, very welcome after exploring the beaches and scenery on a wet and blustery day!||The room was very clean and had everything that you could need. Breakfast was great, fresh baked scones and bread along with many other options. Couldn't have asked for more! Hannah was extremely knowledgeable about the local area and gave us great ideas for further exploration.

This is the third time I have stayed with Hannah and her wonderful staff. The facilities and service are above and beyond what you may expect from a B&B. Rooms spotless and the Breakfast is like a feast. All dietary requirements catered for there are 5 star hotels who would be envious of the standard of food provided. ||Hannah's knowledge of the area is fantastic and she provides a great service in recommending to guests places they may enjoy and where to find them. The Irish Tourist Board should put her on the payroll. See you again

This is our bolt hole when we stay on the peninsula. Hannah Quigley will make your stay a very warm and hospitable one. From serving a lovely Irish breakfast or whatever you prefer. To helping you on your tour of the area with trips and tips. This area has boat trips to the islands, magnificent views, and beaches on both the wild and calm side to suit swimming and surfing, look for the blue flags. We love our stays here and will be here soon again.

It happened two years ago. At first, everything was fine. The owner Hanna seemed like a kind and friendly lady. I was a Ukrainian refugee, a young teenager, one of the few who came to her house. I always tried to help her along with the other refugees: planting vegetables in the vegetable garden, helping with seedlings in the greenhouse, helping with cleaning the rooms before they put someone in. It was on a voluntary basis, it was not my obligation, because the landlady received money for my stay there. Even when I was invited on the radio, I only spoke well of her there. But then... then gradually things started to change. She was very much obsessed with sorting rubbish. We don't have anything like that in Ukraine, so sometimes it was hard for us to switch to that in one day. We tried our best, but of course we made mistakes sometimes. And if you accidentally threw a small piece of plastic in the wrong place - Hanna called the whole house for a two-hour meeting because of a small piece of plastic. And it happened many times over, over every little thing. She didn't care about your time, your health - you had to be there and lose two hours of your life. And that's not all. Hannah used to buy a lot of food with her government payments for refugees. And we couldn't keep track of everything, and sometimes one or two things would go bad. She would buy something we didn't eat and then make a row about not eating it. Anyway, with lots of people in the house, it's pretty hard to keep track of everything. When we were handed gift vouchers by her friends, Hannah said, "You don't deserve that." I tried to help her as much as I could, to build relationships - but she still treated me and many others like rubbish. And she would tell her friends how wonderful and good she was, because she wanted to look like that in their eyes. And then one day she called me and told me to pack my things and leave her house because "I don't want to see you here anymore.", she started screaming. I started crying, asking where to go and what to do now. After all, I'm in a country that is foreign to me, where I have nothing, I have nowhere to go. Her answer was "I don't care, it's your problem.". At that point I was severely depressed and with it severe psychological trauma from the war, falling bombs and losing everything. To which Hannah said to her friend with a smile, "Oh, she's such a baby! Such a crybaby!". Hannah brought me to tears and "gloomy thoughts" and ridiculed me, which made me feel bad for days. I had a massive migraine, felt so bad I threw up, had a pain in eyes because of light and I had to go to the doctor. Then, with shouting and threats a few days later, she threw me out on the street with my belongings. She didn't care what happened to me next. She also lied about me to her friends and the people I used to be good friends with blocked me. I'm only talking about myself and what happened to me specifically, and I'm not talking about other specific people. And what I've written is hard to argue with, it's hard to deny. Hannah, you want to appear nice to everyone, but you put on a fake smile and sling mud at others behind their backs. You can justify it with other people's actions, but I didn't do anything wrong. Maybe you were hoping that no one would find out about what happened. I've always tried to help you, Hannah. What did I do to deserve that?
