We had a wonderful stay at Jill's B&B. She is very kind and welcoming. Right away, we felt comfortable and at home. We enjoyed hearing about her children and meeting Bengie, the dog. Jill knows a lot about the area and I wished we would have met her first before having drove the Slea Head as we could have had... More

I'm just back from a two night stay at The Liston Family B&B and I just hated leaving there. Jill Liston is an amazing hostess, the house is spotless, the breakfast was so tasty and the fact that it is located one mile out of the town can only be seen as an advantage as the silence at night is...

Staying at Jill's B&B made Dingle that much better. She's terrific and was the most friendly and welcoming host on our entire trip. We enjoyed the time she took to chat and make us feel very welcome. She was also very accommodating by accepting the delivery of a piece of luggage that was lost by the airline company. The food... More

Jill is a wonderful host. Full of information about Dingle and surrounding area. Our room was like being home and the bed was very comfortable, cozy and warm. Since it was raining. Breakfast was fabulous and we enjoyed the sun room, and the sun in the morning. Being a dog lover I fell in love. Top notch Bed and breakfast... More

Thank you so much for your lovely comments Linda. I was happy to be of help to you both. It's a small world! Bengie the dog enjoys the company during the summer months and guests usually fall in love with him straight away. I'm happy you found my home cosy and warm. I do try my best to give 100%... More

The Liston Family B&B was a perfect spot to stay to enjoy time in the stunning Dingle region. The property is extremely home-like, comfortable, clean, inviting. Our room was very large and bright with a comfortable bed and just the right touches. Jill is a great hostess - she was very helpful but not obtrusive or pushy in any way.... More

Really excellent accomodation and service. Mrs Liston is an excellent host and her interest in our stay could not have been surpassed. Her knowledge of local history and her willingness to share it and her library of local sites of interest was a huge bonus. It made it so much easier to plan our excursions and enhanced our stay enormously.... More

Everything about this Bed&Breakfast is lovely and the way any B&B should be. As well as being up to scratch with expected basics (cleanliness, friendly owner, etc) it is also very cosy and, in my opinion, just what a proper B&B should be. The room was nice, with little cosy touches. Spacious bright bathroom. If you make it down for... More
