    A quiet well appointed house overlooking the bay which is within easy walking distance of the town.

    Price quoted for continental breakfast was a bit high (€15). Had booked a double room overlooking the bay but on arrival was given a triple room at the back of the house.....however the host changed the room when I pointed out the error and showed him my booking details.

    Excellent location, quiet but within walking distance of town and has private parking.

    We had the most amazing weather, and it would have been lovely to have a few chairs to sit outside on at the property. The bed in our room was a bit too firm for us. While the Breakfast was good, a hot, cooked breakfast was not available here. (Do ask for Dermot’s porridge - a secret menu item which is quite good!!)

    This accommodation is situated just a short walk to town. We had a nicely sized room with a great ocean view.

The room was comfortable and the shower was good with enough hot water for all of us. If you ask my kids what their favorite part of our trip to Ireland was they will tell you breakfast with Dermot.

    This place was magical! Lovely view! Large roomy bedroom with comfortable beds. So quiet and peaceful but just a short walk from restaurants and shops. Our host Dermot was so kind and hospitable making sure our every need was met and more! He also makes a delicious porridge for breakfast by the way! This is hands down the best bed and breakfast that we have stayed in!

Wonderful people, unbeatable location. Can't wait to return when the finances permit! Thanks so much Dermot!

    The walls/floors are very thin and you could hear other guests even when they spoke in conversational tones.

    Our room was large with a beautiful bay view and 2 comfortable beds. The downstairs library and dining area had beautiful views of Dingle Bay. The walk into town was short (less than 10 minutes) and safe, with sidewalks. The host, Dermott, was very friendly and accommodating.

The owner loves his job, really friendly, always happy to give helpful and insightful information on local pubs and attractions. Felt like we stayed at his home. The breakfast area has amazing view.

    We visited Dingle at the time of Storm Darragh - this resulted in a power cut for many, many hours! Dermot was an amazing host during this time and managed to rustle us up breakfast and hot tea + coffee, despite the black out! Dermot was incredibly welcoming and the B&B was lovely and comfortable. We’d love to come back and visit again, hopefully in better weather!
