I live in Belfast and I am moving house on 22nd June. The decorators will move in and my dog snd I will be moving out.

We would like to take a trip with lots of walking to south west Ireland (7 days).

I have found a hotel in Blarney www. ahhleelodge.com for 3 days but as I have 7 days I would also like to visit Dingle which is my problem.

The last time I visited Dingle was 40 years ago. I loathed it and swore I would never go back (my friends at that time were going on holiday to either Spain or France). Having read all the positive reviews I want to visit it again (I am much older and understand the rain!). However I can't find a hotel that will accept dogs in this area.

Do any of you know of a hotel that accepts dogs in this area? Even if you don't know a hotel that accepts dogs, please give me a recommendation that I can telephone.

It doesn't have to be in town (I would prefer to be out of town with parking) and I am not fussy about the room. Having said that it must have a good restaurant as my dog is a very spoiled Cavalir King Charles so I need to be on the premisis in case she barks.

Please help

PS I do not like B&B's

I used Google for :

Dingle hotels dogs accepted

and a number of hotels came up. My slow internet (1-3 kbs) is slower than usual tonight so I'll leave you to see what you want in the way of accommodation.

Thanks Kaneda, but I did the same and the only one that came up was Killarney Royal Hotel which is in the heart of Killarney and I was hoping for something outside of a big town.

Sorry about the web site in my original post it should be

There is an option for pet friendly, maybe that will help you.

Unfortunately, although the Irish love their dogs they are not very welcoming in hotels.

Here is a list from the ISPCA that is helpful.

Also, be prepared - dogs are not welcome in restaurants or bars at all! So do a little tour and foind places with tables outside, weather permitting.

I thank you all. I have looked at your web sites but have decided to spend the time in Co Cork.

I am sure my dog and I will be able to fill 7 days in this area and I have got a good deal at Ashlee Lodge, Blarney (65 euro per night)

lawchick, I will be having breakfast and dinner in the hotel(I hope my dog will sleep in my room) and lunch will be a picnic (weather permitting)
Thank you

Helen

I'm just jealous you have a Cavalier King Charles. I adore those little guys!
