Detailed Reviews
I stayed here for 3 nights and had the pleasure of meeting not only Melanie, who runs things, but her dad, John—a former deep sea fisherman with
many amazing stories, as well as her husband (who carried my ridiculously heavy bag up two flights of stairs) and her children. They were all lovely and made me feel so welcome. The location is perfect—close enough to things (nothing took more than 10 minutes to walk to, really) but far enough to enjoy the quiet. Breakfast was lovely, with standard fare available on the sideboard and then the rest cooked to order depending on which of Melanie’s three options you choose. I suppose that what some have mentioned is true—the rooms are not very soundproof, so if a noisy neighbor comes in late and you’re a light sleeper, you’ll likely hear them. However, I didn’t find the noise levels significantly different than any of the other B & Bs I’ve stayed at. Thanks to Melanie’s hard work and friendly demeanor (she went above and beyond for others in so many ways during my short time there), next time I’m in Dingle, I won’t have to give accommodations a second thought: I’ll be staying here again.

We have just had a lovely couple of nights here in Dingle. Melanie and her parents were very welcoming, the room was bright and spacious and in a great location, with parking on the drive.
The full irish breakfast went down well and in just a couple of minutes walk, you are in the centre of everything in the wonderful town of Dingle.
The favourite stay of my week in ireland

My daughter and I stayed at Brosnan’s twice in March 2023 as part of a hiking tour. Everything was perfect, from the clean and comfortable accommodations to the delicious breakfast provided, to the excellent location. But a great trip is all about the people you meet, and that was especially true of Brosnan’s. The first day we were meant to hike from Annascaul to Dingle but ended up calling Melanie from a gas station in a driving rain. John was there in 10 minutes to pick us up, providing hot tea and biscuits once we arrived at Brosnan’s. Later in the trip we were back for St Patrick’s Day, and Melanie provided all the advice we needed to participate in the festivities like locals! Her dining recommendations were always spot on. They were both so warm and real that we felt like family. We were sorry to leave, and we’ll definitely be back!

My wife and I had been on the Dingle Way Trail for a few days and we needed to get some laundry done. We dropped our items at a local service with the promise they would be avaiilable the next morning at 9. This family offered to take us to the laundry that evening and to help us retrieve it the following morning. The room seemed huge and it was great to spread out our gear and regroup. I remember taking a picture out our bedroom window of the beautiful sunrise. The breakfast was divine and quite filling, which was exactly what we needed to begin the next leg of our hike. Thank you Brosnan family for a great stay and for your genuine hospitality!

I stayed here with my two daughters for one night as part of a hiking tour on the Dingle Way. Melanie was extremely friendly and welcoming. She has great recommendations for restaurants and sights to see while in Dingle. The B&B is well within walking distance to the main part of the town. The rooms were really clean and comfortable. My daughter's room looked out over a field of cows! Lovely! Breakfast was also lovely with lots of choices to choose from. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend to any travelers headed to Dingle. Enjoy!

Stayed at Brosnan's two night during our walk of the Dingle Way. Excellent B&B, clean and cosy with all amenities. Space to dry the hiking boots. Great rooms and lovely breakfast. Our host, Melanie, was very kind and helpful and made us feel welcome. Good location on Dingle harbour and the city centre. Can only recommend

We had a really great stay in Brosnan's B&B, which is centrally located and just a few minutes walk from all the action that Dingle has to offer. Melanie and her dad, John, are great hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Rooms are very spacious - we had a twin consisting of a double and a single bed - and the bathroom and shower are also very spacious.
If you're planning a trip to Dingle check out availability at Brosnan's - you won't be sorry.

Arrived in Dingle after a long night and day of travel and we were warmly welcomed by Melanie who made our stay so comfortable. She helped us line up plans for one day that had gotten shuffled around because of weather and also suggested a wonderful hike for us. Full Irish breakfast was delicious! Room was clean, inviting, very firm bed and just a few minutes walk from the bus stop. Can’t recommend highly enough!

The b&b was great all around. It was spotless, our room was large and we could look out our window at Dingle Harbor. Best of all, Melanie really wanted to make sure we had a good stay. As a lifelong resident, she knows almost everyone in town. It was a perfect stay!

Melanie and her husband made for a very comfortable stay. Nice breakfast. She recommended a nice restaurant Ashes, which was nice evening for us. You can walk from the home right onto the main area of stores and restaurants. Rooms basic, but very comfortable and very clean. Would definitely recommend.
