Looking for first-hand recommendations for B&B's in these places. Even better if they could accommodate a larger group of up to 12. Free associated parking would be a must also.

This is a "don't recommend" for the Wyatt Hotel in Westport unless you can sleep through any amount of noise. This place is noisy (especially the staff) until about 3 am.

Both were clean, well-managed, served excellent made-to-order breakfasts; terrific hostesses at each. Ashfield is a few minutes drive into the town center (and probably only 15 minutes by foot.) We never had trouble parking in Kenmare (May 2018.) Willow Lodge is a very short -- 5 minute -- stroll into the heart of Westport. Both hostesses provided reliable recommendations on restaurants, pubs. Angela at Willow made dinner reservations for us at Torrino's, excellent Italian/seafood fare when you're burned out on fish/chips and seafood chowder.
[Edit - just noticed your group size. Willow has 4 en suite rooms; I think the same is the case at Ashfield -- so booking early might be important.]
