It was a long and rainy drive up to the Bay View and, upon arrival, we were so happy to be met with such a hospitable hostess and a warm room. Bridie was extremely friendly and made us feel at home immediately. When I asked about going into town, she even offered to drive me in at 10pm! More

I find it hard to believe that anyone found this place dirty. I'm a clean freak, and it was as clean as could be. Everything else was wonderful as well. More

The Bay View B&B is situated on a "main road", although not that many cars pass by. The view on the bay is indeed spectacular (we just missed the sunset) and the hostess is very nice. Bridie helped us a lot when we were experiening problems with our car. She gladly offered to use her phone to call the company... More

The hostess was very friendly and treated us wonderfully even though she was expecting her son's homecoming from years in the States. The rooms are small but clean, quiet and cozy. The second entrance is very nice for not disturbing others. The gardens around the home and the view of the bay was amazing! The hostess recommened a restaraunt, Fritzgerals,... More
