John, at Pax House was a great host - tea and scones on the balcony overlooking the bay when we arrived. Accommodated us well at last minute. Wonderfull breakfast. Lovely location. Interesting artwork and decor. Showed us where to see the sights. Best place we stayed in the area.

We stayed two days at Pax house. John was so lovely and accommodating.It was such a pleasant experience. The view from our room was fantastic with rolling green hills,stone walls,sheep/lambs,cows and the amazing dingle bay. Picturesque Ireland.
The rooms are cleaned with nice linens. He turns your bed down at night and leaves biscuits/treats with a few small flowers from the garden. In the morning your greeted with a fine breakfast and more amazing views.
We have stayed in Dingle 5/6 times and are so happy to find this spot and can't wait to return and stay here again.

My wife and I stayed 2 nights at PAX House. We had planned to stay 1 but enjoyed it so much, we changed our plans to stay another. Several reasons contributed to our decision: the view, the friendliness of John (the owner), the atmosphere among the guests due to John's hospitality and the overall feel of the place. Also, John has a dog, Rio, that my wife wanted to take back with her. The dog added to the homey feeling.
John goes out of his way to make all feel welcome (but in a professional, not intrusive way). For example, he offers and serves coffee (via French Press) and tea regularly. He does an evening turn down service, and leaves biscuits and chocolates. He has multiple sitting rooms, stocked with books and games that are available for the guests. The rooms and the eating area have high powered binoculars that are used to admire the fabulous view of the Dingle Bay and the surrounding peninsula.
The rooms and the facility are tastefully decorated in upbeat, happy themes. The dishes, the service and the food was tops on our 2 week trip throughout the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
We had some car problems and John contacted the garage and set up a way to get our car repaired. He told us that if the repairs were going to take a long time that he would pick us up and take us around so we can see the sights; very thoughtful.
We also spent more time with the other guests in PAX House then in any of the other B&Bs as he makes all feel at home, so we naturally chat with each other. He does not force this, it just occurs as you are admiring the view or playing fetch with the dog (outside on the patio).

First, the view from our room was amazing! Second, John is a wonderful host - helpful, caring, informative, and anxious to make the Pax House the best it can be. Our room was very comfortable, lots of nice little touches such as binoculars to scan the coastline around Dingle Bay and lots of books to peruse. Our breakfast was one of the best on our trip - again, lots of nice touches.

The location is great - only about a 10 minute walk to town. While it's an "uphill" walk back, it's not that steep a hill and it will help work off that delicious meal and/or pint or two you just enjoyed! And it's very peaceful and quiet for a good nights sleep.

We'll definitely be returning for another stay.
