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.

Castlewood is that rare and delightful entity, a gorgeous atmosphere married to the best dining and hosting experience ever to be found. Brian And Helen have created an oasis of comfort and aesthetic beauty that is incomparable.I spent a week at Castlewood this past November and left rejuvenated and restored.The staff is wonderfully welcoming and the dining experience beyond description. This is a gem in all respects. I'm already planning my next sojourn!

I’ve been staying at Castlewood since it opened and have never been disappointed. I wouldn’t dream of staying anywhere else in the Dingle area. Rooms are warm and comfortable, it’s easy to get out of bed in the morning because you know the breakfast that is waiting. They also seem to be able to find the very best staff.

This was a wonderful break pre the Christmas rush! The guest house was more like a boutique hotel than bed & breakfast. We were made to feel so welcome and the breakfast was all that was promised. My husband is a Coeliac and my goodness do they cater fuss free for this, separate menu so no having to ask if food was gluten free. Brian & Helen were absolutely wonderful hosts who took a genuine interest in their guests and wanted nothing more than for us to enjoy our stay in Dingle. I could not rate them highly enough!!

Had 2 rooms in a recent stay for one night. Beautiful B&B on Dingle Bay just minutes from downtown. Very comfortable with a delicious gourmet breakfast. Fantastic value - only wish we could have stayed another night.

Beautiful views, breakfast and service. Coziest bed we’ve ever slept on! Short walk to town. Plenty of parking on site. Breakfast had the best omelette of my life! We really enjoyed the bnb and Dingle and we will be back!

Arrived on a wintry night to a warm welcome, tea and cake in the reception room available to all and a drinks menu. Very large comfortable room, the fluffiest towels. 5 star standards. Delicious breakfast with friendly staff. Will definitely return

We booked a triple room, beautifully decorated with plenty of space for us and our 14 year old and well equipped with plenty of storage and a large en-suite. The breakfast is an experience not to be missed and set us up for the day. The staff are warm and friendly and the location is a short walk to the town, we loved it and will be back !

Wonderful and comfortable bedroom equipped with everything you could want. Castlewood has a lovely peaceful ambience, and that is obvious when greeted by Brian upon arrival. The breakfast is memorable....you will love it. Service is so friendly and food quality top class.
