I was staying in the area last week and called in for Sunday lunch. I found the staff friendly and helpful and the place clean and tidy. My family and I had starters and main courses and found the food well presented, tasty and good sized /appropriate proportions. In fact, although we had intended to have a dessert, we simply... More

We recently popped in for lunch on our way back from a day out on the Dingle peninsular. We have stayed here before several times and this time we had been staying with friends, but we wanted to see Liz & Stephen again. Once again we found ourselves not disappointed; food great, company great and that certain something which just... More

Found this place by accident. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, very clean and the shower was great and I do love my showers. The beds were very comfy and being on a major road, I didn't hear a thing. As we arrived late, it wasn't a problem for them to cook up some thing... More

Stayed for 1 night over the bank holiday weekend. We arrived in the late afternoon and despite Liz and Stephen being very busy preparing for a function, we received a very warm welcome and were shown to our beautiful rooms promptly. The rooms are very spacious, comfortable and well appointed. Comfortable beds and GREAT showers.There's free WiFi too. We had... More

Many thanks to Liz and Stephen for all they did for us. My wife and I spent a week at The Anvil Bar in May 2013 and had a great time. The pub/hotel makes an ideal base for exploring the wonderful Dingle Peninsula, the Ring of Kerry and Killarney National Park. Liz made excellent suggestions for trips and in fact... More

Beautiful rooms, friendly helpful staff, ideal proximity to explore lovely west Kerry. And a great pub underneath. What more do you need. We were very pleased to be offered late breakfast. Of course the lateness was required only because of the lively and merry entertainment the night before. Would highly recommend.

Nice and tidy rooms. Very helpful people. Located close to the road but noise wasn't issue. Friendly atmosphere. We had one of the tyres pothole damaged during our stay but owner Seamus offered help and took the wheel to the garage himself. When our baby got sick his wife helped with getting medicine. Thank you very much, we will never... More

99% of this place is AWESOME. Great rooms, terrific bathroom, gorgeous bar, Seamus is awesome, super nice bartender lady. The next day's full Irish breakfast was everything we were expecting....good stuff. The only thing my party of five didn't love was the supper. Some nice choices on the menu, and we chose quite an assortment of meals, but the non-fish... More
