Simply great.
Spotless with excellent facilities and lots of nice touches. From the gardens to the little clocks and all the paintings and antiques tastefully scattered around the house and grounds to the excellent cooking and helpful directions we could not fault the guest house. Hope to stay again! Joe and Ann.

Excellent B&B
My family and I visited Carlow for the Arts Festival. We stayed with the Avlon for two nights and had an excellent time. The hotel is very clean and tastefully decorated. the rooms were large and well maintained. The owner was very helpful and the breakfast was more than excellent. There is a terrace at the back with BBQ facilities and a game room. I would gladly recommend this B&B to any traveller.

Check out the Avlon first if staying in Carlow.
A warm, quiet, and pleasantly decorated room, plenty of hot water on tap in the attached private shower room, and a terrific breakfast made my stay very pleasant. Your room key also opens the front door so you can get back in if arriving back late at night. A downstairs sitting room is available for guests to get together and the staff are friendly. Next time I'm in Carlow, I'm not even going to check elsewhere. I'm going to book a room at the Avlon.
