Gallán Mór B&B

November 26, 2016 by Dunmanus

Gallán Mor

Gallán Mór, overlooking Dunmanus Bay on the Sheep’s Head peninsula, offers luxury B&B accommodation with style, distinction and warmth

January 2016 – Gállan Mór ranked NO. 1 for the whole of County Cork on TripAdvisor

Our four luxurious bedrooms, three with vaulted ceilings, offer sumptuous beds and stunning views. Our rooms overlook Dunmanus Bay and a gorgeous stretch of Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way.

Each room has been individually furnished with a pleasing blend of antique and contemporary furniture. The fourth on the ground floor boasts a four-poster king size bed, large wet room and lovely views of the Sheep’s Head hills to the rear of the house.

With our small and intimate set-up we can promise our guests a level of comfort and personal service that will ensure that their stay with us is a memorable one.

Gorgeous Food & Gardens

Since opening Gallán Mór has risen to the top of the TripAdvisor rankings and developed quite a reputation for the delicious breakfasts and home-baking lovingly prepared using traditional artisan techniques by Lorna. Home-made white and brown bread, home-made jams, and marmalades, scones, lavender shortbreads, cookies, granola, compote plus Noel’s honey from the apiary and herbal teas from the herb garden. Gallán Mór’s Special -‘ The Dutch Baby’ has been wowing guests from all over the globe! You just have to try it.

The beautiful one-acre garden at Gallán Mór has been created to give our guests the opportunity to enjoy the meandering pathways and secluded seating areas, offering breath-taking sea views over Dunmanus Bay, the Sheep’s Head peninsula and our neighbouring Mizen peninsula.

Gallán Mór is an ideal base for walking the Sheep’s Head Way and its wonderful loop walks. It’s also a great base for anyone exploring West Cork and The Ring of Kerry.

We are just a short drive from Bantry where there are plenty of events, pubs and eateries for you to enjoy. Closer to home there are fabulous places to eat such as Blairscove Restaurant, which offers fine dining at its very best and also Arundel’s by the Pier in nearby Ahakista which has live music, good food and a pub garden overlooking the harbour. Durrus has four pubs some of which serve food and have live music. Sailing trips, shore fishing, and cycle hire are all available locally.

Whether it’s walking holidays or just a chance to relax, you’ll find it here. We look forward to hearing from you and will do our best to accommodate any special requests you may have.
