Guest Reviews

• Joerg (10/5): - Alles perfekt, sehr willkommen gefühlt, tolle Gastgeber, Eric und seine Familie. Super Frühstück mit reichlich Auswahl an Obst, Joghurts, Müsli etc. Auch die Selbstbedienungsbar mit Kaffee und Gebäck am Nachmittag ist großartig, von der Lage und der Aussicht ganz abgesehen. Wünsche Eric und Familie eine tolle, erfolgreiche Saison. Ihr Service ist einfach perfekt.
• Lorie (9/5): Nice family run B&B in beautiful location. - We liked everything about this property - beautiful view of the sea, breakfast was ample, easy parking, nice hosts, coffee and tea and biscuits available in common room, walkable little village with a couple of pubs for food. The weather! Haha, nothing to do with the property! The beach looked wonderful to walk along but we unfortunately couldn’t enjoy it.
• Y.A. (9/5): - Ruime kamer met zeezicht. Het goede ontbijt wordt genuttigd met fantastisch uitzicht. Prima overnachtingshotel op een goede locatie.

• Nicole (10/5): - Alles bestens würde ich auf jeden Fall nochmal buchen Vielen Dank
• Lee (10/5): An absolute gem in a must-see part of Ireland. - The location is exceptional and the welcome from Dympna and Eric was very personal and friendly. Nothing! We were there during Storm Dave but we still felt safe and enjoyed watching the huge waves at high tide !
• Tino (9/5): Jederzeit wieder. - Sehr netter Empfang, alles unkompliziert und persönlich. Zimmer & Standort super.
• Joshua (9/5): -
• Matthew (10/5): Outstanding ! - The room was perfect, had a gorgeous view of the beach and was so comfortable and clean. Dympna was a great host, we were very well looked after and her husband Eric made us a lovely fry for breakfast. Location was fabulous too, right on the beach with pubs and food only a 2 min walk away. We had a fabulous night stay Will be recommending to others !!
• Gertrud (10/5): -
• Sharon (10/5): - Fantastic
• Jon (9/5): Wonderful stay. Would recommend to others traveling to Hook Peninsula. - Room with sea view was nice. Excellent location on beach and short walk to several pubs. Breakfast was excellent. Bed was too soft for our liking.
• Andrew (8/5): Would go back a nice area and B and B - Great view, great location, nice area, easy to park. Nice room Minor - disposable plastic cups in room and disposable toiletries. Be good to take a more eco approach will refillable toiletries and washable cups. A tv in room would be good too
• Paul (8/5): Very relaxing and friendly place to stay; beautiful views - Lovely hosts and a great breakfast. Also a superb location with panoramic views over the beach. Bed slightly too soft for my own personal liking, but the room itself very nice.
• Pam (7/5): Breakfast rushed because of next guests needing the table - Beach was on the doorstep Had our car scratched outside the property
• jean (9/5): Très bien 👍 - Hôte agréable , bon accueil et petit déjeuner copieux. Lit confortable
• Laura (10/5): -
• Lemual (9/5): -
• Matthias (10/5): -
• Andrea (10/5): Wir kommen sicher wieder. - Ein sehr netter Hausherr, gutes Frühstück in aussergewöhnlich schönen Raum mit Blick aufs Meer und Strand. Saubere schöne Zimmer und ein Pub in der Nähe mit Live Musik, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Wir waren zu kurz dort. Das Wetter hätte besser sein können, machte jedoch auch bei Regen eine gute Stimmung.
• Claudia (8/5): Ein kleines Juwel abseits der "klassischen" Touristenorte - Wir hatten für uns beide das "Vierbettzimmer mit Meerblick" gebucht und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Im Zimmer waren 2 Singles und 1 Doppelbett, sodass wir nach mehreren Nächten im Doppel mal wieder eine eigene Decke haben konnte. Die Aussicht vom Bett/Zimmer direkt auf die Bucht ist einfach unschlagbar. Und wer auf Meeresrauschen zum Schlafen steht kommt definitiv auf seine Kosten. Das Frühstück wurde, ebenfalls mit Meerblick, frisch zubereitet und serviert und der Host war sehr freundlich und zuvor kommend. Insgesamt war es etwas hellhörig was die Mitbewohner betraf. Zwar gab es links und recht von uns keine Zimmer, doch wenn über uns jemand durch's Zimmer oder über den Flur ging, konnte man das nur allzulaut hören. Aber das ist ein Stück weit Jammern auf hohem Niveau.
• Melissa (9/5): We had a lovely experience staying at Seashells and would highly recommend. - Lovely sea views, delicious cooked breakfast (made to order), convenient parking and quiet room. Nothing
• Dorothy (10/5): -
• Anthony (8/5): -
• Inna (10/5): - Thank you very much
• Guest (1/5): -
• Nadine (9/5): -
• Charles (9/5): Great stop off between Rosslare and the west coast - We chose Seashells as our ferry from Fishguard got into Rosslare at 17:30, so too late in the day to drive to start the Wild Atlantic Way. It was a perfect way to start our holiday.
• Petra (10/5): -
• Joanne (8/5): - Nice room, comfy bed, great breakfast. Property overlooked the beach which was lovely. Would have liked a kettle in the room. Hot drinks could be made in the communal area. Would also have like a TV.
• John Daubenschmidt (10/5): Lovely and Quiet off-season visit - Lovely, comfortable and clean. Family group who wanted a 'Quiet' place to decompress after 3weeks of Hiking. Good restaurants nearby. Everything a Highlight, but peaceful walk on the Beach was definitely the plus. Shower larger than average, very nice with excellent pressure. Beds very comfortable. No negatives. 4 rooms open to the common breakfast area was convenient but required coordination with the Host to assure each Guest/room also had their privacy. 'Each room in their own time' works well, just took me a moment to understand. NOT convenient to Waterford...so plan the city tourism "on the way".
• Gillivan (10/5): Lovely welcome.very relaxing spotless very comfortable lovely breakfast - Wonderful location. Views amazing
• Ebner (10/5): - Freundlich Gastgeber, liebevoll eingerichtet, super Lage.

• Keijan (10/5): Great accommodation - The view from our room was spectacular. The waves rolled onto the building at high tide. The bay and lighthouse were within view. The peaceful atmosphere and the sound of the waves was very relaxing.
• Lawson (10/5): - Nice clean room, seperate bathrooms. Hosts were super friendly and attentive! N/a
• Marian (9/5): - WE so enjoyed the view of the both the beach and the bay, watching a storm as it approached from the sea.
• Alessandro (10/5): -
• Lauren (10/5): Can’t wait to go back - The property is literally on the beach - couldn’t get any closer. Beautiful views every morning and falling asleep to the sound of waves was lovely. Very nice room - clean and bright. No complaints. If you are planning a trip to Duncannon - look no further. Full Irish breakfast offered each morning by Eric which was delicious. Great value for money. Will definitely be returning next year. Nothing

• Jennifer (10/5): A Lovely Stay at the Seashells - I had a wonderful time at The Seashells. The location was perfect — close to everything yet peaceful enough to truly relax. The views were absolutely stunning, especially during sunset. I also really enjoyed the breakfast. Everyone was super helpful and friendly. It was the perfect short break, and I’d definitely return. There wasn't anything really I disliked
• Marie (9/5): On aimerait y rester une semaine ! - La vue incroyable du lit ou du petit déjeuner ! La salle de bain pourrait etre rénovée mais la vue compense tout !
• Simon (10/5): Une étape charmante et reposante au cours de notre voyage le long des côtes irlandaises - La vue sur la plage et le phare depuis la table du petit déjeuner est tout simplement magique. Accueil très aimable, bons conseils sur les choses à faire dans la région.

• Jane (10/5): Delighted, I'll be back again - There is nothing like an Irish B & B welcome, I've stayed in many over the last 45 years and they rarely disappoint. My stay here was so lovely. I didn't realise the room would be so big as it was a very last minute trip, I booked at lunchtime for that evening, just delighted to get a bed, therefore I was thrilled to see that I had an ocean view and a very large room as Eric had given me the family room. Eric and Dympna couldn't do enough. From a very warm welcome to a sparkling clean quiet room. My bed was extremely comfy and breakfast exactly what I needed, a freshly cooked full breakfast is always welcome. It was a delight to sit by the window and look out at the sea watching the beach shenanigans, then a walk along the beach in the morning which is gorgeous was just what I needed. who doesn't like to go to sleep and wake up to the sound of the sea! Parking is easy and there are local restaurants. Plenty to do in the area and ease of the drive to places like Wexford, Hook, Johnstown castle and Tintern abbey make it a great base for a few nights. There are many great beaches locally too. Delighted, I'll be back again.
• Lindsay (8/5): - Bedroom overlooking the beach
• Carine (9/5): Zo mooi direct aan strand en zee - Prachtig gelegen direct aan de zee. Vriendelijk onthaal. Alles was prima. Kleine verbetermogelijkheden zijn flesjes water bij aankomst en beetje kaas bij ontbijt.
• Chung Kim (10/5): Greatest trip and good price for stay - They were amazing people and welcome as like home ! The room was clean n comfortable bed ! They were helpful with clearly direction !

• Geoffrey (10/5): -
• Dorothea (8/5): - Geräumiges Zimmer. Essen mit Blick auf's Meer. Gutes Frühstück! -
• Linda (10/5): Seashells - A little gem of a Guest House😊 - Seashells is a lovely Guest House only a very short distance from the beach. Friendly hosts Dympna & Eric were welcoming & very accommodating with any requests. Rather than repeating previous positive comments I agree & endorse them all. 😊 Nothing
