Maureen's Beenbaun Cottage and its iconically beautiful surroundings typify everything Dingle, County Kerry and Ireland in general have to offer. The attached guest house is clean and quiet. There's a small kitchen and a plush queen-sized bed. The back door opens directly to the hot tub area (wash your feet before getting in!). Teddy the dog and the two outdoor cats are very friendly and the short walk down the winding country lane deliver you to seaside cliffs and secluded swimming areas. The 2-3 mile walk along the cliffs into town will take you past the fishing boats of Dingle Bay, a little working lighthouse, stone ruins, and all the free-grazing cows and sheep you could hope to see. As for Maureen, we found her to be friendly, well-travelled, and full of helpful information about what to do and where to go in Dingle. A mobile hotspot travels with her, so when she's home you can avail yourself via WiFi of it, however its data speeds do leave a bit to be desired. Dingle locals -- being both Irish and well-accustomed to tourists -- are very hospitable. Taxi service is available during normal business hours into the evening, but be warned: those needing to get into town in the wee hours of the morning (say, to catch a bus) will have to make other arrangements. Thanks, Maureen, for helping us to experience the best that Dingle has to offer!
