Although this hostel wasn't bad, it wasn't great either. To be honest I wish we had found a hostel right in Dingle! The drive to and from became annoying, even though the countryside is beautiful.

Really enjoyed our stay at Dingle Gate. Brian, who runs the hostel, really made us feel welcome. We came back each evening to a warm fire he had lit for us in the wood burner, and his chickens laid the best tasting eggs I have ever eaten, and all the facilities and our room was excellent. I will be looking at bringing a big group back later in the year. Its around 2km to the pubs, so not far to walk, and easy if you have bicycles, as an off road cycle path runs straight into Annascaul.

Might not be the most beautiful looking B&B, but perfect to stay if you need a comfy bed. It's only 10 minutes away from Anascaul Lake... amazing!

Beautiful old farmhouse with fantastic host. Excellent cooking facilities and log fire to relax by in the evening. Great location: close to Anascul, few minutes drive from Inch beach and 15 min scenic drive into Dingle Town. Definitely be back.

This is a great hostel for low maintenance travelers, especially hikers and day trippers. It is not a best fit for people who demand the luxuries of home. It is a good bargain for what you get and Brian, the host, is easy going and very hospitable. The location is great and a short drive to Inch Beach and Anascual Lakes.

A lovely, convenient hostel. The owner, Brian, was very helpful and friendly. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend it to anyone. It's a 20 minute drive from Dingle but just outside Annascaul which has a few nice pubs. Dingle is beautiful and I would fully recommend making the most of it during your stay.
