Milltown House Guesthouse

We stayed at Milltown house and absolutely loved it. The room had an amazing view of Dingle that was truely captivating. The bed was soft and comfortable. The facilities were clean and the bathroom was modern. The whole property was tastefully decorated and it was a real treat to stay here. The staff were all friendly. I watched the amazing birds of prey falconry exhibition from the comfort of my bedroom! It was a short walk into the main area of town which I enjoyed as I got to walk off all the delicious food and Guinness that I consumed in the restaurants and pubs. Lots of good options on that front. The restaurants were sometimes tricky to get a table due to the busy time of year but some will take your number and you can go for a drink and come back later. We also visited Dingle distillery which is close by and well worth a visit if you like whiskey. We really loved Dingle and found this accomodation comfortable and would highly recommend it.

We had a comfortable stay and great views at The Milltown House. The staff was friendly and the room was comfortable and clean! The bathroom was recently renovated and was really nice. The two Irish wolfhounds were absolutely adorable and sweet, I loved visiting them! It was nice to sit in the bar area and chat with other guest about their adventures. The B&B is well maintained and taken care of. ||Side note: The Falconry onsite is also well maintained and clean.

An idyllic, peaceful property right at the water’s edge. The location of Milltown House couldn’t be more perfect! My 12 yo daughter and I stayed 4 nights in a darling on site chalet which had all the comforts and amenities we could possibly want. We were delighted the entire time by the resident Wolfhound pups. The property is sprawling and green, certainly spacious enough for both children and dogs to explore for hours. I especially enjoyed the various sitting spaces downstairs (both the living area, and especially the darling pub offering Guiness on tap, Dingle gin and tonics, and much more!). The breakfast is to die for. Scones baked fresh each morning, and a hot Irish breakfast complete with eggs to order, bacon, sausage, tomato, and more. The staff were very welcoming and took great care of us throughout our stay. Will definitely be returning!!|Note: wildlife lovers MUST also take advantage of the Falconry opportunity on Milltown’s property. Such an incredible experience, even in the pouring rain.

I visited Milltown house for the second time. It is a wonderful place with a pleasant atmosphere. The staff is very friendly and will help you with everything. You can enjoy breakfast with a beautiful view of the harbor. They have eagles and owls in the garden that you can see. It is an amazing experience to see them when they are released and when they are fed. They also have a nice bar where you can enjoy a Guinness. Milltown house is a place where I would love to return, it is a place where you can relax and come up with other ideas. I recommend it to everyone.

Our stay at this charming hotel in Dingle was nothing short of incredible. The location is absolutely breathtaking — right on the coast with stunning views of the Atlantic.||A big thank you to Stephen, Rubia and Vitor. They were very helpful in organising our time, explaining where is the best place to go and visit.|If you're visiting Dingle, don’t miss the chance to stay here. It’s the perfect location, and Irish hospitality!||We had a fantastic time and looking forward to coming back.

We very much did not enjoy our stay here. Had we been able to get out of the second night and move elsewhere, we would have. I’d go into long winded specifics, but, based on the owners previous keyboard warrior behavior, they’d just cyber stalk us, review the security camera footage, and find fault with anything we said and did. I won’t waste my time or yours with feedback. I will say, if you expect to encounter the dogs jovially wandering around freely at the property, don’t. You’ll find them locked in a mostly concrete yard all day alone, like a depressing roadside zoo. Maybe they’re happy there. Who’s to say. It’s not how I’d treat my own animals. Apparently they’re too young and rambunctious to do anything else. Breakfast was good

My wife and I had an excellent stay at Milltown House over St. Patrick's Day weekend. - The staff were very helpful and friendly. - The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. - The daily breakfasts were generous and delicious. - We also had the pleasure to meet and spend some time with Oisin, the friendly Irish Wolfhound! - The guesthouse is well located, with a beautiful view and a short walk from the city centre. Highly recommended!! :)

I rarely write a negative review; however, our experience at Milltown House was so disappointing that I am adding my voice to the increasing number of negative reviewers on this and other platforms. My wife booked this accommodation directly with Milltown House for June 7th - June 9th 2025. The room we had for our first night (room 9) was outdated and did not match the description on their own website, with a number of items missing (sofa bed and jacuzzi) and some not working. The separate entrance would have been nice had the door worked, so for fresh air we had to leave the bathroom window and door open. I did bring the non-opening door to the attention of the overworked receptionist/bar tender/waiter /dog minder; however, she seemed overwhelmed and did not get to resolve the issue. Additionally, the room was extremely noisy and we could not only hear every footstep of those above, but their conversations and those of the guests in the adjoining rooms. The group above us came in from a late night and continued to make noise after midnight, which was then compounded by the kids being up and jumping around the room at 6am. While this may have been beyond the control of management (we understand that the duty manager finishes at 10pm), some reasonable soundproofing for the ground floor rooms from the rooms above would have mitigated the issues considerably. After a very poor night's sleep, we came down for the first breakfast sitting. Given the price and website description, it can only be described as well short of disappointing. As noted by some other reviewers, the cooked element of the breakfast was lukewarm at best and certainly not “hot”. It was almost as if it had been precooked and simply poorly reheated that morning. We took the early sitting (8am), however, at no time did we see any of the buffet goods being replenished and witnessed a number of guests arriving to find elements had already run out. After breakfast we came through the lounge to head out for the day and noted that those who came for the later sitting were still waiting to be let in over 20 minutes after their start time (this happened on both mornings). I’m not sure when they actually made it in, however, I’m sure that it didn’t help their plans for the day. Sadly, we weren’t the only ones with such negative experiences. We ran into 3 couples in the lounge room who decided to forfeit their second nights accommodation as their experiences were even worse than ours! No offer of refund was made despite some genuinely legitimate failures. Finally, I note that management's response to similar concerns as ours is to dismiss the issues and the complainant, and they seem reticent to accept the experiences of their guests. My suggestion is that improvement comes from acknowledging the deficiencies and working to address the genuine concerns and I hope that this becomes their focus.

Interestingly, not everyone on the Rick Steve's tour was able to stay here. Not sure how the accommodations were, but the wait staff could use some work, actually just one in particular. She was upset with us for not waiting for buffet when another staff told us to go to it. The following day for lunch they brought five of six meals to our table and then brought the meals to another table and she was very exasperated that we asked for a meal for our sixth person saying she only had "two hands."

It seemed rather appropriate that on a Rick Steves tour, we actually got to stay in the Rick Steves room at this lovely hotel. We stayed two nights and enjoyed every moment of it. The room had a lovely view through the huge bay windows overlooking the sea, the bed was comfortable, and we slept very well. There was adequate closet space to store our clothes and enough convenient outlets to charge our devices. In fact, we realized we had lost one of our adapters and one of the staff members gave us one to use. We also especially loved having the Nespresso maker in our room. It was a nice touch and it made fantastic coffee. We liked the location - just a short walk to the heart of Dingle but far enough away from the noise and the busy tourist area. Every staff member I met - and I wish I knew their names - was so helpful, professional and always available. Even the dogs seemed eager to help, if only they could talk. It's obviously a well-managed hotel. One of the highlights of staying here was having a falconry experience right on the hotel grounds. There are brochures available in the hotel and they will even book it for you. Having a hawk and an owl land on your arm, holding a golden eagle at arm's length, watching a peregrine falcon hunt - these are memorable experiences that were easily accessible during our stay at this hotel. Book it quickly so you don't miss it. We had a delicious and filling breakfast every morning, cooked to order. My poached eggs were always perfect and the smoked salmon here was the best I had on this trip. It was also nice to be able to get a beer at the bar later in the afternoon and evening and sit in the lounge at the end of the day. The WiFi was much faster in the lounge downstairs anyway. The Milltown Guesthouse is one of the top places in which we were fortunate enough to stay during our Ireland and Scotland tours this summer. Anyone would be lucky to snag a reservation here. We hope to return again.

We stayed at the Milltown House for 2 nights. The B&B has a wonderful location - situated right in front of the water and easy walking distance to town and the Distillery. If you read any other reviews you will see reference to the dogs, and our review is no exception. Our daughter LOVED the dogs - they were her favorite part of her whole trip. The room was nice, spacious and clean. The breakfast was delicious! The scones - yum! Stephen was very informative and lead us to a new park that was built that we could take our little one to. He was also very informative about the area and history. Everyone who worked there was very friendly. If traveling to Dingle give this place a look!

What a lovely experience it was to stay here! Where to start, the rooms were amazing! Very large, quiet, and the bathroom was huge! The lounge was very comfortable and your first drink is free! The breakfast was wonderful in the sun room. This hotel is also close enough to walk anywhere you please in Dingle. Loved the charm of the California flag next to the Irish flag, made my husband feel right at home. As an added bonus we loved the Irish Wolfhounds!

Absolutely the best all around B&B in Ireland. Ambiance, proximity from town, privacy, food, company, knowledge of surroundings. If you don't stay here, you have not experienced Ireland. Thank you Stephen and crew!

The service, location and atmosphere were more than we could have ever asked for. We wanted a true Irish experience and that's exactly what we got.

Saw this place mentioned in a Rick Steves guidebook and so glad I did! Milltown House is a short walk from town, just around the harbor, and it looks and feels like heaven right there on the water. Marie and Seamus, the resident Irish Wolfhound, were quick to welcome me inside and I felt instantly at home. This charming house is equipped with a cozy bar, sitting rooms, and a lovely sun room overlooking the water. I was shown to a large suite with a super king-sized bed, sofa, table and chair, flat screen TV and a Nespresso machine. Breakfast was included and probably my favorite part. There are hot options available, and Dierdra bakes scones fresh every morning. There's also a variety of fresh fruit, Irish cheeses, yogurt, granola, cereal, and even almond milk which made me very happy. Breakfast is served in the sunroom with a view of the harbor--photos don't do it justice. There's a full bar on site so it's perfect for socializing, especially if you prefer a night in by the fire. Seamus the dog is super mellow and friendly--he even let me take him for a walk through town. If you are looking for an authentic Irish experience and a home away from home, this is it!
