Cosy, romantic, a little haven.
Fabulously finished conversion, with all the feelings of a cosy cottage but mod cons included. Power shower, jacuzzi bath, wonderful big bedroom and couch with a wood burning stove. Did'nt want to leave.

Perfect place to relax
The place was great. It read quiet relaxing and the coach is perfect. Needs a few light bulbs need to be replaced and one or two glass bowls for food would be a great addition. We completely unwound relaxed and recharged. We will be back.

Hi Harold, Thanks so much for staying and for your pointers here. We'll get straight onto the bulbs and the bowls. We hope to host you again soon. All the best!
The location is quite good - about halfway along the Ring of Kerry and a nice mix of away from it all and an easy drive to areas with more activity. The sheep neighbors were quite quiet. The property is a restored/renovated farm house in the classic countryside look with a few modern touches. The only thing I would add is a coffee maker.
Die Ferienwohnung war etwas abgelegen aber trotzdem gut zu erreichen. Sehr sauber und komfortabel mit 2 Badezimmer incl. Toiletten. Gut ausgestattete Küche und ein gemütlicher Wohnbereich. Der Aussenbereich verfügte über einen Tisch mit Sitzgelegenheit wo wir des öfteren gegrillt haben. Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Cute house - like the fireplace. Detailed cleaning needed (spider webs all over the place). Several burned-out/non working lights (no bulbs). Was hard to see in the dining room especially. Towells need replacement - they did not seem clean. Squeege can be helpful in the downstairs bathroom as water gets all over the floor by the toilet area when you take a shower.
We enjoyed a much needed long weekend away from city life in London at this cozy cottage.
It is in a great location to drive The Ring of Kerry, explore Killarney National Park and adventure the Dingle Penisula.
We only wished we would have stayed to enjoy the place a little longer. Could easily spend a whole week unwinding here.
We just melted into the sofa, bed and the jetted tub. Very comfortable and relaxing. The view of the sea was perfectly serene. And the bae of the sheep surrounding us was a lullaby.
Michael made it a breeze to check in and out. Thank you so much!
Super vakantie gehad in dit karakter huisje. Familie en Michael zijn heel vriendelijke mensen met allerlei kleine tips voor de omgeving. Wij zouden direct terug willen gaan. Bedankt
We enjoyed a wonderful weekend in Couples Retreat, Castlecove Co. Kerry. A lovely romantic hideaway.Plenty of interesting places to explore nearby and the beaches of Derrynane were amazing.

Thanks TJ, glad you both enjoyed your stay, we would be delighted to have you return.
Better than expected, lovely to stay in beautiful cottage with roaring fire and TV with the option of Jacuzzi tub. Local pubs serve great food and everyone very friendly.
Able to then drive around the ring of Kerry and stop off at beach, waterfall, old fort and visit Killarney National Park with plenty of little walks and great opportunities to take photos.
Many thanks
This was the perfect place to stay in Kerry. We loved the traditional feel of the house, but appreciated that it had modern conveniences. Both bathrooms were beautifully done. The jetted tub was wonderful, but we also appreciated a high pressure shower. Michael and his family were very helpful and kind, quite welcoming. Food nearby was exceptional, and the shops were near enough to make this a great ‘home’ while we explored all around.

Wonderful peaceful cottage.
The cottage is back off the main road. This made for a wonderful peaceful experience. The cottage was clean, cozy, and as advertised. We loved making a fire each night while watching TV. Just be sure to get specific directions from Michael before arriving. Otherwise, it's a little had to find. Thanks for sharing your place with us Michael.
