    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!

    Dermot and his Son Jack were so helpful and attentive that nothing was too much trouble, including lifts to an event and allowing us to use the charger for our electric car. The house itself is spotless, in a great location within easy walking distance to the town, and has the best view of Dingle Bay. We plan on doing the ring of Kerry next year and a stay in the Lighthouse in definitely on the books. Well done, Dermot and Jack your doing a grand job.

    Dingle has some of the most beautiful views but sadly we were given a rear room with a velux rooflight & the only view we had after climbing 2 steps to see out was that of a building site! The rain hitting on the velux was very loud & disturbed our sleep, as did the extremely loud international guests next door who proceeded to move between rooms across the landing frequently at night & shouted at each other rather than talking. At 11.30pm on the first night we had to knock the wall to make them aware they were disturbing us. The second night had different guests & they proceeded to watch television until 11.40. Their TV seemed to be against our wall so we heard every sound!! There does not appear to be any sound deadening or insulation between the stud walls & every sound could be heard including those using the toilet, shower & WHB, their televisions & conversations. We had two very disturbed nights sleep. We appreciate the disturbance from other guests is out of Dermots control but he does need to address better sound insulation to ensure his guests have a comfortable night. Sadly due to this we would not stay here again or recommend.

    The Lighthouse is a lovely B & B & Dermot the host is a very nice gentleman & very helpful in advising of places to go. The bed, pillows & linen was very comfortable & the room spacious.

    No air conditioning but not really needed in August in Eire.

    Dermot was very friendly and informative. The continental breakfast with fruits and yoghurt was excellent. Good coffee. Good parking. Easy walk into Dingle. Advise that you book popular restaurants one week in advance.

    The property was immaculate, and comfortable to stay at in every way- really making guests feel at home. But what really made the experience stand out was the host. From the moment we booked, he was warm. responsive and accommodating. We were running late for check in time and the host stayed to greet us and gave several local recommendations that turned out great. The location was perfect-peaceful , yet close to everything we needed. We stayed in several vacation rentals on this trip and this one set the standard. If you're looking for a place that combines comfort, charm, and outstanding hospitality, look no further. We will definitely return.

    Loved everything about it!!

    Ahhhh Beautiful Magical Dingle! With THIS Breathtaking view from our lovely, charming B&B! From the moment we stepped in the door of The Lighthouse, we were treated like long lost friends! Family in fact! Dermot & Jack not only welcomed us from a long drive from Doolin, (we are from Cleveland Ohio, in Ireland for 11 days, this was our 3rd stop) but made sure we were comfortable & well cared for, for our entire stay! AND THAT VIEW!! We were in room 6! The B&B is charming, well appointed and immaculately clean! The breakfast is delicious and the choices are pure Irish! Made with love and care! The intentional decor and warmth of each detail, this darling place made me never want to leave! The Lighthouse will now be tradition whenever we are in Dingle! Thank You Dermot & Jack! Looking forward to seeing you again soon!!
