Dining Out

There are a number of excellent restaurants in the area including two within easy walking distance and these are some of our favourites:

Dunloe Hotel and Gardens

Dunloe Hotel

Subject of a 20 million euro refurbishment the Dunloe re opened in April 2018 and now features a restaurant with spectacular views of the Gap. Even if you do not dine there it is worth a visit for the beautiful gardens and the lobby with its Harry Potteresque multi storey library.

Europe Hotel
