You don't say what town you want to be in, but if it's Dingle, have you looked at Greenmount House? They had the best breakfast on our trip, although the room was not luxurious. The website for Heaton's also looked interesting. Hope you have sunshine.

We stayed at Ceann Tra Heights, which was immaculate and the breakfast was great. My only suggestion is that you may want to choose a B & B closer to town, so you wouldn't have to drive at night.

My husband, myself and 8 friends stayed at The Lighthouse last June. It has a lovely view of the bay, is very nice and modern-cute decor. Also, we walked into town-about a 10 minute walk. Denis was very helpful in deciding where to eat dinner, which pub to go to.<BR>I highly recommend it.<BR>http://homepage.tinet.ie/~murphydenis/main.html<BR>Our group loved Dingle!<BR>Shadow

Check out Heaton's Guesthouse in Dingle - they should have a site on the web. Great place - loved its new amenities and the owners were super friendly and helpful and breakfast in the morning was worth getting up for...its on sort of the far side of Dingle but then you get to drive through the whole town. Plus it overlooks the Bay - spectacular nighttime views with all the twinkling lights...

We have stayed twice at the Greenmont, it's the best, and just up from town.<BR>Park car and walk everywhere. For a great dinner, try the Mystic Celt.

Does anyone know if the Lighthouse has hairdryers and if they accept credit cards? There is no mention on there website&gt;

The Lighthouse is a great place to stay. Lovely home and rooms; delicious breakfast; close to town; wonderful views; and the Murphys are wonderful hosts. They couldn't be more helpful with suggestions, etc. Great Irish hospitality. We loved our stay there.

Frank, last summer they did not accept credit cards-don't know about this year.<BR>I do not remember about the hair dryers but almost all we stayed in did have them. Several of the B&B's did not take credit cards or did not accept them for just one nights stay. We love B&B and only stay in them-just be aware about the credit cards. <BR>Shadow
