A beautiful location and a beautiful house - uniquely styled rooms, amazing views from the breakfast room and a cozy old Irish sitting room with a turf fire. This is Ireland's B&B hospitality at its best. We loved the relaxed atmosphere here, the friendliness of our hosts and the location about a mile out the Sky Road of Clifden was... more

Loved the house view and room. A little far from town but the setting more than makes up for it. Showers do need to be hit with a little more mildew cleaner but that seems to be the case in most places in Ireland. The owners were very kind and caring and you could sip a glass of wine while... more

We have stayed at Dolphin Beach House twice this year, in the Crooked Room and more recently in Bay View. It's definately worth going for one of the rooms with a view of the cove; we really enjoyed sitting in our seating area and taking in the view! The rooms are characterful, large (the ones we have stayed in were,... more

I stayed at the Dolphin Beach house in June 2009. This is a top class b and b - more like a luxury boutique hotel. It is classy and sophisticated - yet relaxing and cosy. The location is second to none with private views over the Clifden Bay - you won't want to leave. Dophin House has a private cove... more

Dolphin Beach House was our final B&B on our trip of Ireland's west coast. We couldn't have asked for a better ending to a wonderful trip. The house is gorgeous right down to the last detail. The room (the Cove Room) was immaculate and well appointed. Each room had a spectacular water view from your own stone patio. The views... more

We stayed for three nights. Wonderful room with spacious bath/shower. King bed. View of the water and patio. Breakfast superb-the pancakes to die for and the fresh fruit & scones. We walked the beach, hiked to Clifden castle and our hostess could not be nicer. Lots of books and a wonderful peat fire. We highly recommend if you are someone... more

This B&B (more a 'boutique-type' guesthouse) was perfect. Secluded, beautiful scenary, good food - quality and choice, large room with Patio (though we passed some that were smaller - ask for large one with bayview), turf fire. I don't understand some of the negative views: - service slow because waiter was talking with other guests - it's Ireland, not London!... more

Dolphin Beach House is a great place to stay! Rooms are large and very clean and the whole house is tidy and extremely well kept. It should fully satisfy the most exacting American visitors! Beds are both firm and comfortable and some of the rooms have direct access to a yard opening straight to a wonderful landscape, scattered with stone... more

A very good bed and breakfast hotel.**** The location is divine with the beach and sea 1 minute walk away from the breakfast area. The room that I stayed in was a double room with a sea view with an ensuite wet-room. The bedroom and wet-room were spotlessley clean. Cloddagh and Dorragh who run the hotel are excellant hosts who... more
