I was recommended to this B & B by a family member who had visited 10 years ago. He said it was a pleasant place. In every way I was totally satisfied. The innkeepers Clodagh and Dara were very friendly without being so friendly that I wanted to withdraw. The rooms were charming and comfortable. They opened onto a view... More

Our room was large, warm and very comfortable. The living area has wonderful views of the coast and very comfortable. The breakfast was outstanding and the... More

My American friends and I spent 2 nights at the Dolphin Beach House recently and enjoyed it very much. We loved the peaceful location right by the ocean and the atmosphere of the house. Our rooms were both clean and comfortable with wooden floors and a general feeling of tranquillity. The breakfasts were outstanding and our hosts Clodagh and Darragh... More

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolphin Beach House. The location was so beautiful as were the facfilities and our room.

My daughter and I stayed at the Dolphin Beach House in June and were so sad to leave. It is well worth a few nights to take in the beach, gardens and lovely view. The establishment is beautiful and patios outside of each room were a big plus. The owner was very accommodating and even helped us with problem phone... More

It seems so boring to just echo all the other superlative reviews -- but it is not possible to do otherwise! This is such a special place. Warm, welcoming and helpful owners. Beautifully decorated throughout, comfortable sitting areas and lovely terraces. Pretty spacious room with comfy bed and sparkling bathroom. Delicious breakfast all served in lovely Irish pottery. Lovely and... More

After 15 trips to Eire I can safely say that there are a handful b&B's that shine & remind you why you came and why you have to find a way to get back! The exclusive view of the Atlantic, the spacious and refreshing rooms and patios, the perfect reason to wakeup to eat and tour! Clodagh is the quintessential... More
