Quaint pub atmosphere and plenty of room
Came to Castlemaine with family members of six, and had family from Abbeyfeale come down for some games and picture album viewing. It was the perfect location with lots of room for us to have a great time full of laughter and craic.

All about character
This rental is exactly as advertised. The property itself is a little tired *but* having your own bar is the absolute coolest and the owners have really gone out of their way to make it comfortable and homey. The beds were super comfortable, the bathrooms were modern, and the pub makes it all worthwhile either way. This was hands down our kids' favorite place we stayed. The village is quite small but it's a good location for exploring the Dingle peninsula and you can't beat having your own pub! Definitely recommend.

family trip
This was a fun place to stay, with our own neighborhood pub atmosphere but still plenty of room for us 9 adults and an infant. Everything worked well and the restaurant Griffins and convenient store Helena's were VERY friendly, helpful and accommodating. We loved our stay!

Excellent stay to accommodate a large group
We had such a wonderful time at Jack Duggans! The establishment was clean and perfectly situated for our group of 9. The neighborhood was so fun and the people are incredibly friendly. Our communication with the property owners/management was exceptional. So pleased with our stay- may be the highlight of our trip so far. Thank you, all. Cheers!

Such a unique place
What a fun experience! We were looking for unique places to stay while exploring the Dingle Peninsula and nearby Killarney and found it at Jack Duggan’s. The upstairs apartment is quite large and can accommodate a large family easily. The bedrooms are comfortable and we had everything we needed during our stay. What a fun experience to have our “own pub” to feel the history of the place. Castlemaine is small, so there aren’t a lot of walkable eating options, but there are a few a short drive away. The local store owner was very helpful and friendly. It was a fun experience and one we will remember.

Located in a sleepy, quite town about 13 miles from Killarney National Park, my family and I enjoyed the amenities of the pub while lounging and recharging our batteries before moving onto the next phase of our holiday. Easy, scenic drive to park allowed us to stay out of the traffic and congestion surrounding Killarney. Would book again especially if we travel with another family as the property was roomy and comfortable.

Fantastic Irish gem
Nothing like having an Irish pub to yourself! Catriona and Ann were wonderful hosts. Would definitely recommend.

Great location, unique rental
The property was exactly as described and perfect for our groups stay. It is convenient to Dingle peninsula and Ring of Kerry - the extra bonus was a separate dryer from the washing machine which was not common in other rentals! It was clean and plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Would definitely come back!

This is a great place to stay for families and groups.
We loved staying at the Pub. The pool table was great and they had lots of games. It is a small town- one restaurant (it was not serving food), two bars and a gas station/grocery store. You have to be prepared to drive to Killarney or other towns for meals and sites.

Great place
Central to town. Manager’s response to our questions were prompt. Very helpful manager. The bar area lent a lot of character. The dryer didn’t dry our clothes very well.
