    Location suited us as it was just a short drive into Dingle. The B&B was spotlessly clean and the room was lovely with a great view. Breakfast was continental style. The host was vert welcoming and friendly. Good parking.

    Location was excellent, easy to find, close to Dingle village. The host Brendan is an absolute gentleman and has done a phenomenal job with the place. The rooms are nicer than the pictures show and are very quiet, and well appointed. They also have a lot of leaflets with things to do on the peninsula that you wouldn't necessarily know about from researching online.

    Our host was fabulous! Not only was he able to accommodate us with a second room last minute but he also assisted us in getting back to the train station. He dropped everything to drive us the scenic route back to Tralee. The property was picturesque and had absolutely stunning views. I would love to stay here longer!!

    For breakfast, I was expecting to be able to have something hot/warm such as fried egg and crispy bacon and homemade bread, which was not the case. But, overall quality o breakfast was good.

    Perfect location for driving Slea Head Drive. The accommodation was clean and well organized. There is a coffee machine equipped in the canteen by which you can enjoy several kinds of coffee. The host was also a gentle and friendly guy giving you lots of tips for your trip.

    There’s honestly nothing they could do better than they’re already doing

    Greeted by Dermott and his very lovely son jack upon arrival. This property and very large house is in pin perfect condition. We had a beautifully appointed room overlooking the inlet and green hills. It was at the end of the main road , about a 10 minute easy walk into all the shops and pubs.

    Nothing!

    Dermott was a wonderful host and so friendly. Nothing was too much trouble and he generously offered the washing machine which was well needed after 2 weeks of travelling. The room was lovely and we loved it all. Location was lovely and peaceful whilst being so convenient to walk into Dingle and also head out on the Slea Head Drive (a must do!)

    That I couldn't stay longer.

    Dermot was the friendliest host, offering great recommendations for things to do and places to see. HIs breakfast was fantastic with homemade Irish porridge and fancy coffees. He was so approachable and even helped us to dry our clothing after we got soaked in an Irish rainstorm. The location is perfect with a beautiful view of Dingle with a short walk to town, but quiet and peaceful. It was one of our best stays on any of our vacations abroad.

    Gorgeous view...perfect view of the bay and Peninsula across the way. The owner and staff, Dermot and Anna, were just great people and made our stay so very nice for me and my son. Dermot is a character in the best way and Anna was so cute and a ball of energy..always helpful.

    I would highly recommend staying at The Lighthouse Dingle. The owner, Dermot was amazing, he gave us so much information about the local area, restaurants and even helped us booking a golf course - nothing was too much trouble. The rooms were great and breakfast simple but lovely. Great coffee machine. The only thing you need to be aware of is it is located outside of town, about a 10 min walk but it is mostly uphill. If your fitness isn’t at a reasonable level I’d suggest staying closer to town. We however, loved the walk and view so it wasn’t an issue at all. Thanks Dermot, you were the ultimate host!
