Situated in Dingle town centre, The Captain's House has a long tradition of hospitality and seafaring men. The Captain's House has been a Bed & Breakfast since 1886, when Captain Tom Williams, after meritorious service in the Royal Navy and Irish Lights, started taking lodgers. The Bed & Breakfast, served by the Kitchen Garden, earned a reputation for homely-ness, comfort and good food, which has lived on through various owners.
Approached by footbridge over the Mall river through award-winning gardens, the Bed & Breakfast has been renovated and furnished with antiques and items collected on the Captain's voyages, creating an atmosphere of peace and tranquility. Whether relaxing with a book, having tea and cake in your suite, or barbequing on your deck, you will feel at home.
Fine furniture and paintings, turf fires and fresh flowers create a warm, friendly and relaxing atmosphere which sets the mood for our bedrooms. With orthopaedic beds, satellite TV, and other home comforts, they are warm and cozy. En-suite bathrooms with loads of hot water complete the pleasure.
