Hotel revamp gets green light despite objection

A HOTEL redevelopment and extension has been given the go-ahead at one of the country’s top blue flag beaches on the Dingle peninsula – made famous also by the film Ryan’s Daughter.

Despite a local objection, An Bord Pleanála has approved the upgrading of the Strand Hotel at Inch.

A new sewage system is to be part of the hotel refurbishment which will improve bathing water quality at the noted beach.
