Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

- dolmen2018Belton, TX26 contributionsKen gets you to Dalkey Island quickly and efficiently. We roamed the island at our leisure and then walked back to the dock area where he promptly came and picked us up for the return trip. Another plus: Ken is friendly and makes you feel welcome.Written 24 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Aman KNaas, Ireland1 contributionThere are so many wonderful reasons to visit Biddy's cottage, and yet the most important one is simply to meet Biddy herself, who is such a sweet, charming and lovely person. Spending time with her felt like having spent time with a dear friend. Thank you so much Biddy for all your kindness, for being such a gracious host, for the lovely stories, for the amazing food and drinks, and especially for making us feel so welcomed and at home.Written 18 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- StephenCrossDublin, Ireland31,614 contributionsThe Muglins Lighthouse looks amazing with the sun rising above it. The sun sits on top as if it’s the light itself. So many different aspects!Written 31 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- jeanannwhittleNewcastle upon Tyne, UK11 contributionsFantastic grounds and amazing view of the loch. Good walks but map showed coloured arrow walks, but the arrows on the post were name of people, just wandered rather followed a set walk, so probably missed parts of the grounds. Good reason to go back. Castle closed but still impressive from the outside.Written 16 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- StephenCrossDublin, Ireland31,614 contributionsThe Cats Ladder can be hard to find from the Vico Road. It looks like a private entryway. Great walk up to the top and 238 steps.Written 28 November 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Dim DeLSpaichingen, Germany516 contributionsThis is a totally AMAZING church!
It's already very impressive from the outside, but it is worth arranging a visit inside.
The goth character and the whole decoration is amazing!
