For more than 250 years the Smyth family has been dispensing hospitality at An Síbín, a delightful traditional hostelry which is one of the most famous pubs in Ireland. The original bar retains all its olde worlde charm while a recent extension houses a large modern bar complete with dance floor. Located about half-way between Kenmare and Castletownbere, at the northern end of the famed Healy Pass, the inn is now owned and run by the sister and brother team of Frances and Peter Smyth.

 

It's a lively place with music and dancing every Friday night throughout the year, and on other selected nights and of course an impromptu session can never be ruled out. A pre-requisite for any music group playing here is that they can play for a set. An Síbín is now an established set dancing venue for dances from all across the Beara Peninsula and beyond. During the winter, set dancing classes for beginners and advanced dancers take place on Wednesday nights. An Síbín is also a Bord Failte approved B&B offering five comfortable rooms, all with en suite facilities.
