Very nice place. Good account of room for an adult with two teens. Convenient having the pub downstairs. Staff is very helpful and welcoming. 10/10 would go again

Great stay at a location best for two nights to visit both the Dingle peninsula and the ring of Kerry. Nice lively restaurant with locals on a Saturday night

Wow, Thanks Elizabeth, you provided each guest just what they needed in a thoughtful, caring way. That is amazing when running the pub, with the colourful regulars, and blow ins from all corners of the world. You provided the very best of Irish hospitality in a gem of a place. Thanks for being so generous with your time and guiding our local travels. What a terrific family you are. I wish we could bring you home with us! Warm regards, Dom and Julie from down under.

Check in was not very welcoming or informative. We weren't told about how to get in during bar closing times with a key in a Lockbox.
Breakfast is only served between 9 & 10am with No Flexibility. We were offered a sandwich to take away instead, which looked disgusting so didn't eat it. Also, we stayed 2 nights and on the 2nd day we returned to the property at noon (the bar was closed) so we couldn't get in, it was all locked up. The entrance door for the accommodation is different to the one to the bar. Only by chance we saw someone inside and knocked on the window. She said you can't check in until 4pm, but after explaining we'd check in the previous day, she let us in, but with no apology. When we explained this to the manager the next day, he asked : didn't anyone give us the Lockbox Number ? After we said no, he shrugged his shoulders with no apology. Our room was average at best, and the mattress was very uncomfortable. Would not recommend.

Cozy Room
My family and I really enjoyed our stay at the room above the pub. It was very clean, and the bed and pillows were super comfortable. Thank you for the lovely stay! We’ll definitely recommend this place to our friends.

Nice roadside pub. Food was good in evening and breakfast. Service in the evening was iffy. Most staff didn’t know how to check us in. Room was small but clean and fine and good for one night

Our host Liz was very helpful, lots of advice about what to see, and we even had a brief Irish instruction. Very lovely. This was a great base for visiting Dingle peninsula. Breakfast was great, we enjoyed the pub, and there is also a nice pub next door.
