Castlewood House
Review
Treat yourself to a luxurious stay in this award winning hotel. Boasting some incredible panoramic views and ideally located on the shores of Dingle Bay, this is a dream destination for couples. Helen and Brian have truly created a haven for world wide visitors and you can expect the best of Irish hospitality. As soon as you walk in, the atmospheric surroundings make you feel as if you were a part of the family. Everything is ever so elegant and charming. The rooms have all been individually designed to a high standard and there are some beautiful extra touches throughout too. For some added luxury, you can even arrange for some chocolate and champagne to be delivered to your room. Can you believe that they even got awarded the title of ‘Best breakfast in Ireland” by the Sunday Independent?With some fantastic deals and packages, the town centre of Dingle is only a 5 minute walk away.

Some places linger long after dessert; The Boatyard is one of them. In Dingle’s working harbour, owner Gavin O’Grady leads a bright, unflappable team who treat hospitality like a craft.

Dick Mack’s Pub
Dick Mack’s Pub is Dingle distilled: a plain façade, a creak of the door, and a rush of time travel. Since 1899 one family has kept a careful vigil here; now fourth-generation custodian Finn MacDonnell carries the baton with the kind of quiet care that keeps tradition breathing, not fossilised.
