Relaxing country stay
The beautiful scenery, and location allowed for the country experience that was close amenities while give the feel of being in the country. The house it self was beautiful and was as if you step back in time in some areas but had the comforts of a modern home.

Great location as a base to tour Kerry
Lovely spacious house, with all you’d need in a home from home - except WiFi. However it was refreshing not to have it for the week! Add WiFi and you’d be on to a winner!

Hidden Jem
This property was hidden away from the road up a hill and very quiet. We all loved the views and the charm of the stone cottage. It is close to Killarney where we were attending an event. There is lots to do in the area or just enjoy the peace and quiet. We hated to leave.

Idéal pour découvrir le Kerry
Nous avons adoré la maison, son style à la fois authentique et moderne, les échanges avec la propriétaire très disponible et gentille et la localisation du lieu idéale pour découvrir le Kerry près de Killarney du Ring of Kerry et des péninsules de Dingle et Beara. Nous recommandons fortement cette location.
