We are located on the Wild Atlantic Way over looking the entrance to Castletownshend Harbour. We are a small B&B which offers good accommodation and friendly service.
I love walking and swimming and the outdoors life. I sing in the local church choir for the last 15yrs which i really enjoy.
Castletownshend is an unspoilt village with alot of history. Drishane House, St Barrahanes church to mention a few. Mary Ann's restaurant is located 1.5km away. We can arrange for Whale Watching tours or kayaking if needed.
