There is a very warm welcome awaiting you . We offer a varied and delicious choice of breakfast. The accommodation is large and comfortable on the ground floor with en-suite bathroom and offers ease of access and adaptions for disabled guests. Well behaved four legged friends welcome with plenty of room for exercise. The property is close to all the delights that Anascaul and the rest of the Dingle peninsula has to offer, mountains, sea, sand, beautiful scenery, pubs, traditional Irish music.
Very peaceful B&B in the hills of Anascaul there are no near neighbours to disturb you. The nights are so dark that on a clear night you can see all the stars in the sky. If you like a walk Anascaul is within reach and the local pubs serve great food have live music and the place to enjoy a good Craic ! Anascaul is the birth place of the famous explorer Tom Crean who accompanied Ernest Shackelton to the south pole, when Tom returned to Anascaul he opened the South Pole Inn which is still there to this day. There are some very popular scenic walks within the local area. There is good access to public transport with Bus Eireann providing links to Dingle through Anascaul and to Tralee.
