Teach de Broc

This was a gem. Self-described as a Guest House, Teach de Broc (Teach is pronounced “Tok”, or so I was told) is a small, family-run hotel that welcomes everyone but is ideally situated to accommodate golfers who have trekked to Ballybunion, Ireland to play its eponymous golf course. This establishment was ideal for our needs. Brothers, Cian and Dermot, who run the establishment with their mother, make every effort to cater to the needs of their customers. They were all cheerful and engaging, and put forth the best in Irish hospitality. The establishment includes a nicely appointed dining room with beautifully decorated upholstered seating, and fine art adorning the walls. There is also a small, adjoining bar with indoor and outdoor seating. The menu was eye popping and the food quality and service were excellent; tellingly, some of the patrons were locals. Rooms were spacious, clean, equipped with flat screen tvs, and the beds enabled a great night’s sleep. For those visiting to play the golf course, there is no lodging that is more convenient; the driving range is across the street (but you can't see it because of some adroit landscaping), and the clubhouse is close enough to walk to with your clubs. Yet, regardless of the purpose of your visit, Teach de Broc should be your choice for lodging if you visit Ballybunion. I would not stay anywhere else.

We had an amazing experience at Tech de Broc! We had an early afternoon tee time at Ballybunion and were able to be accommodated to check into our room by the innkeeper. Our room was spacious, clean, sunfilled, the shower and bathroom also spacious and comfortable and the bed was very comfortable. We had dinner and then breakfast at the inn and both were very good. After dinner we had a drink at the bar and found the guests fun to chat with in a wonderfully casual setting. The innkeeper happened to be there and was charming and very welcoming. What I loved most about Teach de Broc was the warm, welcoming vibe in a cozy, comfortable setting. No pretense, just friendliness, good food, and great service. Teach de Broc is a great place to stay when you're playing Ballybunion (easy walk to the clubhouse)!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this hotel. We needed a place closeby for an early tee time at Ballybunion. This far exceeded the expectations I had from booking online. The rooms are spacious, modern, yet warm. The location is fantastic You can walk to the golf course and the beach. It was not a big hotel, but much more than a B&B. ||Our favorite part was the restaurant, for both breakfast and dinner, and the accompanying bar where we had pre-dinner drinks. Owners Cian and Dermott were a wealth of information, both for the history of the area and helping us to plan our Ring of Kerry drive. We so enoyed their company. ||On our 2nd and last day, my daughter and I had to wait for husband and son to complete golfing before we could leave. Dermott settled us comfortably in the restaurant area with tea and coffee and we passed a few hours chatting and reading. I could have stayed there all day. It was like being in your own home, but with someone taking care of you! ||It's a special place. I would go there again, golf or no golf.

Absolute gem of a small boutique accommodations. 5 stars all around. Everything here is world class. A very personable host and staff - all went out of their way to show us warm hospitality and top shelf service. The dinner was exquisite and the breakfast was the best I’ve had. have traveled to 90 countries and stayed at over 1000 hotels and I would rank this experience in the top ten. A must stay if your anywhere near this area of Ireland. Walkable to Ballybunion and 50 yards from the driving range is a bonus.

Always a pleasure to stay in T de B excellent food and its location so close to the superb Golf Club and practice area. Visited the town and while you mention 'Beautiful' Ballybunion i was so disappointed with all the amusement and betting shops in the main street , it is really very tacky when you walk around. It also has a wonderful beach just the town needs to upgrade and compliment the other enjoyable features

One of our favorite places during a phenomenal stay in Ireland!!☘️💚 The hotel is beautifully decorated and incredibly comfortable with the absolute best service imaginable. Located immediately across from Ballybunion golf course, there’s no more convenient spot especially with an early tee time. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Absolutely heavenly. Wonderful boutique guesthouse. Stayed there last week, and as one of my travelling companions said while we enjoyed a glorious Irish breakfast... " you know, everthing about this place is just Quality". And we all agreed, from the warm welcome, the wonderfully appointed rooms, the food, the location. We missed the opportunity to have in their restaurant this time ( we had eaten there before, so we knew it would be great, but alas schedules were against us) but we will definitely be back. Teach de Broc is a pitching wedge from Ballybunion golf club and all its fantastic facilities. It is also a few hundred yards from one of the best beaches in Ireland. We are already looking for an excuse to re-visit Aoife and Seamus and stay in Teach de Broc again.

A small Truly family run with great care. I imagine they were trained at Swiss Hotel schools, but it’s just natural for them which makes it staying here such a pleasure and it’s right across the street from the golf course and you can walk to the beach through the golf course what an amazing trail for a 10 minute straw after dinner or before breakfast And everyone’s raving about the kitchen and the food and the dining room and there’s a dangerously seductive temptation, trolley desert cart It was the first time I saw in Ireland a big beautiful fillet of sole with butter and lemon sauce. I’ve been craving it so happy. Oh, and breakfast is just delightful Scones and more than the usual choices all made to order no buffet here. It’s heaven can I move in?

Five star; fine dining!! Outstanding menu. My wife ordered the pork medallions and I ordered the sea bass. Both were outstanding. Food preparation and presentation was exquisite. Small wine list but our waiter recommended an Italian red which we found to be excellent. For dessert we had the lemon cheesecake and a raspberry meringue. A perfect end to a perfect meal. Service is second to none. Reservations highly recommended.

This is a great place to stay in a smaller town. The views of the area are beautiful. The rooms are a decent size, nice comfy bed. It's a little outside of Ballybunion but Ladies beach is a short drive away. The best part of our stay was the food. The chef is amazing. Some of the best meals we had on our stay. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Fantastic family place that feels like a B&B. The food is excellent , nice wine and whiskey selection as well. Across from the famous golf course but also walking distance to the beach! A short (10min) drive to the Bromore Cliffs!

Excellent food. We had an Irish stew and seafood chowder. Best I've had so far. Also the avocado salad with pine nuts was delicious. We stayed overnight here after playing Ballybunion. Room was clean, spacious with a great view. I'd give it 5 Stars for sure.

This is a fabulous place. Across from the famous Ballybunnion golf course, this family run place is an excellent boutique hotel and restaurant. The food is probably the best I had on a two week vacation to the west coast of Ireland. Dermot, the bartender was a pleasure to meet, full of personality and a dry wit. Can't recommend Teach De Broc highly enough.
