AnnC Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 It's early to be asking, not going to be visiting Dingle until next summer but half the fun of a trip is the planning and anticipation, can anyone recommend places to play in the town, folk clubs, sessions etc.? Would be good to meet any local cnetters while we're over there and have a cuppa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Reeves Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 John Benny Moriarty's, usually good. There is music most nights at O'Flaherty's, and a great night on Monday ( set dancers and session) at An Conair. An Conair is a small pub near An Droicead Bheag. An Droicead Bheag is kind of like Cruises in Ennis, mics and music, but not always a session for visitors. I suggest a look at McCarthy's up at the top of the town, often a tune there. Fun pubs include Foxy John's ( hardware shop with a bar, Irish spoken) and Dick Mack's. good pints and conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnC Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 Thank you, lots to go to within walking distance of where we'll be. Going to spend a happy evening looking your suggestions up on t'web and finding them on streetview. Hope to have learned the Irish for "please, thankyou, hello and good morning/afternoon/evening" before we go so at least I can be polite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Reeves Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 The effort of a few words of Irish would be nice, but not necessary in Dingle. Just have a good time, it is a lively town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglo Enthusiast Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Dingle, you say? What about the Dingle Norwood bill? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAUcyfKESts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnC Posted November 7, 2013 Author Share Posted November 7, 2013 just on the off chance ..... rather than do a 4 hour drive as soon as we get off the ferry could anyone recommend an hotel or B&B on the outskirts of Dublin or half to 1 hours drive from Dublin with secure car parking (all instruments will be taken into the rooms even if it leaves no space for us) that could put up 3 couples for 1 night. Future sister in law has been looking but with no success so far. Thanks Ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
