This was the best place we stayed on our ten day trip to Ireland. The hospitality of Helen and Brian can't be beat. The rooms are beautiful, the breakfasts are delicious, and the location is perfect if you're touring the Dingle peninsula. I would go back to Ireland just to stay at Castlewood House. I wish I could send all... More

All reviews have said this Dingle Ireland guesthouse is five star-and they are right. From the warm reception to the excellent room to the superb breakfast this establishment is excellent. Until now we have never found a bed and breakfast establishment that beats a top line hotel or resort-type property;this one does. If in Dingle do not hesitate to chose... More

Simply put, if you don't enjoy your stay wt Castlewood, you shouldn't be staying at guesthouses. This was by far the best guesthouse we've ever stayed in. The Hosts were delightful and very helpful guiding us to the best places to eat and enjoy music. The home is bright and impeccably decorated. The artwork complemented the decor perfectly. Although we... More

We stayed at Castlewood House for three nights in April. The small town of Dingle is wonderful and only a short walk from the B&B. Castlewood is run by owners Brian and Helen. Brian showed us to our room which was HUGE! We booked a junior suite and were given room 11 which had a small view of the bay.... More

Everything was superb! The room, the view, the friendly and helpful staff and owners AND the food. Especially loved the oranges in vanilla sauce....although there were so many wonderful items it was hard to choose! And just a short walk (just right to walk off breakfast going into town, or a pint or two coming back)..

I truly can't find anything to complain about, Castlewood was excellent. The rooms were very cozy with that rustic antique feeling, the decoration was very adhoc with what you expect Ireland to be. We stayed in a two twin beds room, it was very spacious and it had a wonderful jacuzzi tub which helped a lot after being all day... More

This lovely B&B is in a glorious location facing the water and a short walk to town ,with all The Irish charm one could imagine. The B&B is run by a warm and friendly couple who serve a full and delicious breakfast while talking to you about your day, giving direction and pointing you in the right direction to be... More

My husband and I recently stayed here. From the moment we walked in we felt so relaxed and welcome. Upon checking in, we actually tried to see about vacancies so we could stay longer. Unfortunately, because it is such a great place there were no vacancies. I would easily go back here and stay again. I'm pretty sure we would... More

We stayed here for our honeymoon and have never stopped talking about it! We daydream about going back. Castlewood house is beyond welcoming and the accommodations are absolutely pristine. Breakfast was amazing and the location is great! Cannot recommend it enough.
