Dingle accommodation

Hi I am a lone traveler heading to Dingle with Bus eireann from Dublin and seems I left it too late for accommodation May 4-7. Does anyone know of anyone whom might have a spare single bed for a lady!!!! I'm not a fussy person!! So is there anybody out there that can help me, much appreciated,
Regards Rose

Hi Rose,
If you don't have any luck finding something to book in advance, then when you get to Dingle, head to the TI office and they should be able to help you.
Good luck!

Rose - are you on AirBnB by chance? That's a good choice..... also - it may sound odd, but hostels in Ireland are actually quite nice. I'm in my late 50's and I stay in hostels often..... there are 3 (I think) in Dingle....

Also - besides bus Eireann look for "Local Link" - it's sort of new and they run much more often. I think the website is divided into counties - it would be County Kerry. You may be able to find a place along the route that Bus Eireanne doesn't stop at. I'm also going to do a few quick calls right now and see what I can find!

Rose -

This is a bank holiday weekend - Monday is a holiday. DO confirm your bus times for Monday as it will NOT be the normal time!

It does appear that it's booked in Dingle Town!! Yikes. Dingle is often full - don't know why, there are so many great places on Iveragh and Beara peninsulas, but Dingle has the crowds..... Maybe try someplace and ask for them to call you if they have a cancellation?

May 4th is Star Wars day and they have events in Dingle. That 3day weekend also has a dance festival.... there are festivals all over!

Let me know if I can help find you a place outside of Dingle and I'll try to work some magic.... But join AirBnB in the meantime just in case!
