Wedding at Cashel House Hotel

We recently got married at Cashel House Hotel. We had the most amazing day. We could not recommend Cashel House enough. The food, the service, the bedrooms, the surroundings, all completely exceeded our expectations... and gave us the most wonderful day.

Wedding Guest

We arrived in this charming venue with family members appearing from various cottages and corners of the property. It felt like our own personal village! Very unusual. The wedding ceremony (which was my brother and his bride) was held in an outdoor garden. It was like being in a Hollywood movie. It was also a great property for the younger children who ran about all day exploring the various paths and feeding the goats and visiting the donkeys. There is a lovely space with a piano where the family members who could play got to show off their repertoire. Very relaxed and something different for a wedding or indeed any special occasion.

No Room at the Inn despite booked

Reviewed By Gerard F

Poor experience, Make sure you confirm your room as they forgot my booking even though we booked 3 different nights all at the one time in person and had stayed the other 2 times, breakfast is very average at best , pathetic customer service and the person who answered the phone just said sorry the room is not there , no explanation and didn't care or offer to try and secure another room in a the area with Another B&B , there is much nicer B&B in the town so please do avoid and go elsewhere , a bit like what I had to do

Sea Crest Farmhouse B&B

Best stay of our whole trip to Ireland!

Reviewed By McKinneyTX2019

Angela was the perfect hostess - welcoming, knowledgeable, delightful to talk to and a fantastic cook. The room was spotless, clean, had thoughtful amenities, great views out both front and back windows of the sea and beautiful landscape, and delicious breakfasts. We had traditional Irish breakfasts the 1st morning then eggs and pancakes the 2nd. Wish we could have stayed longer. We felt like we were leaving a good friend when we drove away.

Dingle Garden Townhouse

Thank you for considering our place. This is a beautiful property – a luxurious townhouse in a great location in Dingle town. There are 10 en-suite rooms in total – the rear of the building has 2 king size rooms which have harbour/ Garden views and 5 Superking rooms with views of the garden and some have views of the Harbour also & the 3 front rooms are large super-king rooms with street views and of Conor pass hills. All of the beds are really comfy! As well as beautiful bedrooms; a large light filled open plan living room opens out onto a patio area and a very large garden. The garden is enclosed by the original stone walls - creating a private space in the centre of town - and backs onto the Díseart chapel & grounds. Indeed the chapel's famous Harry Clarke windows overlook the bottom of the garden. We're always more than happy to give you any tips/ advice on places to see.

Sleek luxury in a perfect location for a visit to Dingle

Reviewed By Mary Beth E

Beautiful B&B in historic building with modern, sleek (but comfortable!) interior design. Perfect location- right at the edge of the fun stuff: pubs, shops, restaurants but just beyond the noise cone. Crisp sheets, large showers and a breakfast so bountiful it was hard to avoid being wasteful. Homemade scones and bread. Hosts are gracious and helpful. If you’re visiting Dingle, you should stay here!

Amazing

Reviewed By PennyJM20

I stayed here with my partner for 1 night and it was amazing from the start. We were introduced to a lovely man named Frank who assisted us with our bags to our room and directed us to the different areas within the hotel. The room within the house was amazing and the bed was very comfortable with a gorgeous view of the garden. We walked to the walled gardens when we arrived which were beautiful. We then had a 5 course meal in the Sandstone Restaurant which was lovely. Our waiter Ruairi was lovely, he was very attentive and polite and told us about each dish and wine. I enjoyed the breakfast the next morning but my partner's eggs benedict was a bit disappointing. Other than that I loved staying in Lough Rynn, the staff were all lovely and polite and really made sure we were well looked after.

Dunkerron

Luxury seaside self catering property minutes outside Kemnare. Fabulous Location on 50 acres bordering kenmare Bay with a walled garden and the ruins os an old castle on the grounds. Eight en-suite bedrooms.

Clean and reasonably priced

Reviewed By mb1204_1986

We stayed here with quite a big group and found the homes clean and tidy. They are a bit of a distance from the main town but that only 5mins in the car. The place is very well equipped if you are self catering. The only thing they didn't really have were baking trays. They is a good outdoor space for children as well near the entrance which is also handy!

Galley Head Lightkeeper's House

The Irish Landmark Trust in partnership with The Commissioners of Irish Lights ensured that a number of lighthouses around the country were saved to allow future generations to have access to these important maritime buildings. These two self catering holiday homes are located close by to the award winning village of Clonakilty, a charming vibrant market town.

An absolute MUST DO! No question... this is a MUST DO!

Reviewed By Dara C

I have visited Galley Head many times, and this trip was just like all the others... eagerly anticipated - and well worth the wait. One could spend hours writing about the beauty, mystique and sheer tranquliity of sitting on top of an exposed headland, with the constant, methodical, sequenced flashes out to sea.... It is truly magical..... it will become a yearly pilgrimage (as it has for me). You are left all alone (if you wish), or you can have the wonderful tour of the lighthouse from Gerald.. which is so special. There is no finer place on earth. And I am already looking forward to yet another visit to this magical place. Seriously.... don't spend long debating the pros and cons... this place will blow you away....
