Cill Bhreac is a wonderful B&B. The proprietors Orla and Ronan were very welcoming, and as natives of the Dingle Peninsula, were ready to answer any questions and to offer knowledgeable suggestions for trails, activities, and restaurants. (Their website is also filled with information about the area.) The B&B is impeccably maintained, the rooms are very comfy, and the home cooked breakfasts are delicious. It’s located a short walk from Dingle (10-15 minutes), so there are no interruptions from the town life. Best of all, the bedrooms have gorgeous reviews of Dingle Bay!! We highly recommend Cill Bhreac!!

The location is just outside Dingle, easily walkable in about fifteen minutes to the heart of town. The view is wonderful. The place spotless, with several lounge areas that guests can use. There were eight or so breakfast options, which could be customized as you wish. Friendly, helpful hosts. Put us onto a couple of great restaurants in town.

Our 3rd time staying in this b&b when the Adventure Race is on in town. The race itself is good but this b&b and it's owners Orla & Ronan are the main reasons we go back each year. You get a great welcome, regardless of the time of day & night, spotless rooms and a breakfast that sets you up for the day. Even if the race doesn't happen next year, we'll be back in the b&b regardless!

What a wonderful stay at this quaint yet modern B&B. The hosts Ronan and Orlan were so nice from booking, to welcoming us upon arrival and giving advice on places to go, where to eat and good pubs for traditional Irish music to the amazing breakfasts to help jump start each day of exploring the Dingle Peninsula. They truly are a family establishment and even met their pet dog Bailey during the visit. The rooms were immaculate and beds super comfortable. If you are traveling through the Dingle area, highly recommend staying at this B&B. Thanks again Ronan and Orlan and hope to see you again soon!

The hospitality here is fantastic. The staff are kind, helpful, courteous and accommodating. We stayed two nights and had two fantastic breakfasts—with a number of hot choices, including the full Irish Breakfast, and all the other cold breakfast items as well, including fresh fruit. The banana filled pancakes are fantastic. The room was on the smaller side but clean and well laid out. There was hot pot and a selection of teas, coffee, milk, and biscuits in the room. There are several common rooms. The entire facility is on the newer side and very clean. Its just on the edge of Dingle so you don't have the late-night pub noise but you can still walk to town.

Ronan and Orla are wonderful B&B hosts. They and their family, including sweet dog Bailey, live on the premises so you feel as if you are extended family. The rooms are small but very clean. The house is away from the busy Main Street area but just a 10-15 minute walk to town. Ronan greeted us warmly with lots of recs on what to do and dining options. The breakfast is a legit made to order style that provided many options. When we informed them we would be leaving early, Orla left us a portable breakfast that was much appreciated. You do need to pay in cash so be aware of that, but if staying in Dingle, book here.

Our adventure in Ireland has been incredible with the highlight in beautiful Dingle staying at the Cill Bhreac House B&B for 3 nights. This B&B was our favourite by far. Orla and Ronan are fabulous hosts. They were so helpful with their tour (we chose Mossie Tours which too was a highlight) and restaurant recommendations both on their website as well as through our chats with them. Also, they recommended walk and hikes and we took advantage of the 10km walk along the coastline right from the B&B.
The breakfast was delicious and generous to get our days started on the right foot. The fair hair lady who served us (unfortunately we didn’t get her name) was kind, lovely and interested in how we were spending our days. She wanted to ensure that everything was to our liking which it certainly was! We also appreciated the use of a fridge and sitting room which we used every evening.
The location provided amazing views and a pleasant walk into the town centre.
Overall, a fantastic stay and would highly recommend to friends and family. If we are fortunate enough to ever come back to Dingle, we would definitely stay here again.
P.S. We so enjoyed the company of the family dog :)
Thanking you, Your friends from the East Coast of Canada

Ronan and Orla were the perfect hosts with tips for local attractions and a sublime breakfast awaited us every morning. The rooms and the whole B&B was spotless, our room was spacious with a lovely bathroom with shower. The only 2 wee gripes I had was the room was above the kitchen so we hard a lot of noise in the mornings and I think the complete plumbing system was adjacent to our room which was extremely noisy when other guests used shower or went to the loo! Overall I was very satisfied.

Hi Lynda, Many thanks once again to you and Lorcan for coming to staying with us for three nights recently. Really glad to hear that you were really satisfied with your stay with us. Also good for us to know about the plumbing noise that you experienced in your room - we were not aware of this issue and a plumber has since resolved the problem (it was a unnoticed snag item following on from our recent refurbishments). Apologies for any inconvenience - had we know about this during your stay we would have addressed it immediately for you. Thank you again for your kind word and see you on your next trip down from the sunny south east. Best Wishes, Orla and Ronan.

Breakfast was exceptional with the hosts going that extra mile foe anything you need or want. We will definitely come back again .

We spent 2 days in Dingle (it was our first time) and we couldn’t have been luckier. Ronan and Orlan were so kind and nice. The B&B is only distant 15/20 minutes by walk (or 2 minutes by car) from the center of Dingle. Highly suggested. P.s. don’t forget to snuggle with Bailey (their dog)

I got in touch with them through their website. Evidently I can't type it in with this answer, but just Google "Cill Breach House, Dingle" and you'll get it. Ask for a room that faces the water! Enjoy!
Hi Aibhe,
Thank you for your query. No, there is not any curfew in place at night. All our guests have their own bedroom and front door keys so you can come and go as you please.
