About Bob
The owners take great pride in this property, performing periodic upgrades for the comfort and convenience of their guests.
Bob purchased this House in 2002
Why Bob chose Dingle
Many of our guests were extremely complementary of the location -- far enough of out town to be quiet, but close enough for a walk or minutes by car. They also enjoy the well equipped kitchen.
What makes this House unique
Having one central location outside of Dingle provides visitors with home-cooked meals, the freedom and convenience of having your own private living space, and the attraction of some of the best music Ireland has to offer.

Great stay in beautiful setting
We stayed here for the Other Voices festival. Lovely place and Rob was very helpful, we even had a nice phone call a couple of days prior.
House has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Beds are comfy, bathroom towels available, all the cooking equipment you need, fire and heating if staying in the winter are great also.
Its less than 10 minutes drive to Dingle.
Wonderful experience!!
We stayed here for three nights and really enjoyed it. It was clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed. The reason for the lower rating on check in is that the directions on locating the house were confusing to us. We had three adults in the car that read them three different ways, all being wrong. Other than that, absolutely no concerns. Thank you for sharing your house with us.
Quiet Dingle retreat
We had a wonderful 4 days at Bob's house. This house is well equipped, cute and clean. It's as described - on a road leading out of Dingle just about a 5 minute drive into town - a perfect base for exploration of the peninsula without being in the middle of tourist crowds. It was good value for two couples and would be great for a family.
Thanks to both of you for the review. We take great pride in the house, and -- as you know -- were just there ourselves to ensure we update it as necessary. There's some new furniture going in, and we're in the process of painting and having some other routine maintenance done.
We hope you come back soon.

Lovely cottage in lovely countryside
The cottage was a lovely retreat a couple of miles out of town and we enjoyed being able to chill out on the two sofas (one sofa each) on the evenings we didn't go into Dingle.
Peace and quiet in the countryside
We had a great time in Bobs house outside Dingle. The house is big and got everything you need for a comfortable holiday including a well equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. All worked well - at least after Bob called and helped us out with turning on the boiler for hot water!
The house is situated about 3,5 km outside of Dingle in the countryside. You will need a car. It might not be the place for you if you are after nightlife and action, but for us it waa a very nice base for doing a lot of sightseeing around Dingle and Kerry. We even got to go to Skellig Michael and went for a walk across the hills to Gallarus Oratory. We also had some nice weather and even sat outside and watched the sun go down over the green hills.
Great Summer Week in the Irish Countryside
We spent a week at Bob's home outside of Dingle in July. Very comfortable house with all the amenities needed for a very comfortable stay.
The location is about a five minute drive outside of Dingle which made traveling into town to enjoy music every night very easy. There are lots of pub, restaurant and shopping options in Dingle. The Supersaver grocery store in Dingle is large and well stocked. Open late as well.
We enjoyed most evenings as the house outside and enjoyed dinner at the picnic table. The view in front of the house is wonderful and is great for watching sunsets.
We would highly recommend the home for families or anyone wanting to enjoy some time away in the Dingle countryside.

This home is located about two miles from Dingle Town Centre, in a quiet area known as Glens South. Please note that the HomeAway and VRBO site shows the wrong location, putting our house in Dingle town centre.
