The receptionist greeted us with an enthusiasm and warmth that made us feel instantly welcome - a boon to weary travellers having driven across from County Wicklow in the rain. Although the bed was smaller than we expected, the comfort and general standard of the room was high. The public areas were lovely - especially the lounge with its open fire and squashy sofas - and the restaurant offered great food. The staff were totally focused on our needs and remembered each day of our three night stay what we liked to eat for breakfast and dinner. The smoked haddock and the salmon on the breakfast menu were especially delicious.
The highlight of this part of our trip occurred outside of the hotel - meeting Fungi, the legendary Dingle Dolphin in the Bay - but, no matter how many times they must have heard it before, the staff listened happily and patiently to our recounting of this magical experience.
I checked into the spa for an aroma luxe massage and this was heavenly, too.
