About this property

Kerry CoastTraditional Cottage in Kells at Dingle Bay in County Kerry, Ireland.

This traditional Irish Cottage made it up to today. The owners preserved the old character very carefully and kept it well maintained. The Cottage has one bedroom with a double bed, a modern bathroom and a very homely livingroom with a cosy stove. There is one extra bed on the gallery as it used to be in the old times. The elevated terrace besides the house is a great place for looking across Dingle Bay or watching the millions of stars in clear nights. Indeed a nice place for a romanatic holiday.

A charming, authentic cottage in a beautiful setting!

My sister and I truly enjoyed our stay in this little cottage. Denise and her husband were very accommodating and enriched our stay. We used the cottage as home base and ventured forth everyday to explore the Ring of Kerry and beyond--we both looked forward after a long day of sightseeing to return to the cottage and a warm peat fire and a hot cup of tea. We hope to return someday!

Bay View Thatched Cottage in Kerry

The cottage is quite comfortable for 2 or 3 individuals with a lovely view of Dingle Bay. It is centrally located on the Ring of Kerry not far from several major tourist spots. The property manager is quite responsive and attentive to details. The kitchen is quite adequate. The only downside is the lack of WIFI and the baseboard heat struggled to keep up with the unseasonably low and rainy weather (given it was August!). We would certainly stay there again.

Lovely restored traditional cottage with an incredible view

We stayed here 5 nights. We were lucky with the weather so the view of the water and across to Dingle was outstanding. Nice walks on roads between sheep pastures right out the door as well as a trail up the mountain. There is a beach that is a close drive. The cottage itself is well equipped and was quite clean. Only downside was using the wood stove for heat as it smoked some. We switched over to electric heaters that were available. The enclosed glass walled room was a great bonus. Communication with Denise was excellent as were emails ahead of our trip from Magritte. We enjoyed staying here!

Beautifull

The place where the house was located, the view, the silense were all wonderful!!! You are looking over the bay to Dingle. With great evenining sky’s. The house was good and clean, with een great bed and a conservatory. Only the electric facade heater and the fireplace were not enough to warm up de house in the cold evenings. We were there the first ten days of may. Leo en Ingrid from the Netherlands The lady who was taking care off the house was very friendly and helpful

Poor value for money

Great location and beautiful view. Not very clean, lack of comfort, worn facilities. Too complicated to get warm water from the tap. Impossible to heat the place up, the fireplace didn’t work properly. No ventilation so humid and no fresh air inside. Poor value for money.

Cottage dans un cadre incroyable

Superbe location avec une vie à 180°sur la baie de Dingle. La véranda permet de profiter de la vue mais elle ne communique pas directement avec la maison. Le cottage reste rustique et sombre mais il a beaucoup de charme. Nous avons eu la chance d'avoir beau temps pour en profiter.

Traumhafter Ausblick

Das Cottage liegt zwischen der Bucht von Dingle, Schafweiden und grünen Hügeln. Es ist ist ein altes Gemäuer mit einem angebauten Wintergarten, in dem man auch bei schlechtem Wetter sehr gemütlich sitzen und die Aussicht genießen kann. Der Ausblick vom Schlafzimmer und dem Wintergarten ist wunderschön, über die Weiden bis zum Meer. Hinter dem Haus verläuft der Kerry Walk, der dann in die Berge abbiegt und an diesem Streckenabschnitt spektakulär ist. In Kells liegt der Kells Garden, ein sehr sehenswerter botanischer Garten, wo man zudem sehr gut thailändisch essen kann. Man muss sich anfangs mit verschiedenen Besonderheiten des Hauses (Warmwasserbereitung, Heizung) vertraut machen, dann funktioniert alles gut. Die Waschmaschine haben wir nicht benutzt, aber der Wäschetrockner war nach Wanderungen im Regen sehr nützlich. Die Stromkosten hielten sich in Grenzen (18,60 Euro für eine Woche). Es gibt kein WLan, aber die mobilen Daten waren ausreichend, um Nachrichten und Fotos zu verschicken und zu bekommen. Die Kommunikation mit Denise war sehr freundlich und zuverlässig.

Home away from home

After our 10 day honeymoon around multiple places in Ireland, we tested positive for COVID and had to isolate 10 more days. We picked this place, and we couldn’t have been happier. The view in front of sheep and beautiful Dingle bay was breathtaking and then you also have beautiful, green, tall mountains behind you. It felt so secluded which we loved! The house was cozy and warm with the wood stove. The washing machine was broken, and the caretaker was quick to help, washed clothes at her house even, and then within a few days, there was a new washer. The owner and caretaker were always so quick to respond to our emails and incredibly helpful and kind. We called it our home away from home since we were able to just stop all the touristy things and relax here and take in the feeling of truly living in Ireland. We have promised each other to have our 10 year anniversary in Ireland and will definitely come back to this lovely cottage!!

Amazing base if wanting to experience the Ring of Kerry.

Cottage was amazing experiencing old and modern living experience. Cody cottage with breathtaking views. Location was remote but that was part of the beauty of it. Extra care needed on small roads and road users courteous. Was base for us to drive around the Ring of Kerry. Communication with manager was so easy and attention to detail for us as tenants was great. Would recommend highly.

Sehr schöne Lage

Das Cottage liegt traumhaft schön, leider war es während unseres Aufenhaltes sehr kalt. Das Häuschen ist schlecht zu heizen, Elektroöfen, die viel Strom brauchen, und offenes Kamin, bzw. Ofen. Wir haben in dieser Woche viel gefroren. Da anscheinend nicht alle Gäste mit Feuer machen Erfahrung haben, riecht es wie in einer Räucherkammer. Warmes Wasser muss extra und kostenintensiv bereitet werden. Die Hausverwalterin ist sehr liebenswert und auch hilfsbereit.

Prächtige Tage im authentischen Cottage

Die abgelegene, ruhige Lage am Atlantik hat uns gefallen; die Nähe zum Ring of Kerry erschliesst diverse tolle Ausflugsmöhlichkeiten. Pubs/Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind in Autodistanz erreichbar. Die Blütenpracht ums Haus und (dank unglaublich schönem Wetter) die Sonnenuntergänge über der Bucht haben uns verzaubert. Im zweckmässig eingerichteten Cottage haben wir alles vorgefunden, was wir brauchten. Wir würden das Roads Cottage allen erholungssuchenden Naturliebhabern empfehlen.

Urgemütliches Cottage mit Kamin und Meerblick

Das Cottage liegt einmalig schön, umgeben von rauen Bergen und mit einem wunderbaren Blick aufs Meer. Wer es ursprünglich mag, wird hier auf seine Kosten kommen. Die kleine Ferienwohnung hat eine ganz besondere Ausstrahlung Dank der alten Möbel und des kleinen Ofens. Nur die Elektroheizung und die Dusche (ebenfalls elektrisch) wirken überholungsbedürftig. Ohne den Ofen wäre es eindeutig zu kalt zum Haus. Dafür kann man bei Sonnenschein auf der Terrasse seinen Kaffee trinken und die Landschaft genießen.

cosy getaway ideal for a couple

We spent a lovely week at Roads Cottage. Set off the beaten track with fabulous views of the Dingle peninsula. We were graced with lovely weather but imagine it would be quite wild in winter, which we would have loved to see. Cottage was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. Log burner was welcomed on chilly evenings. Some good local walks up to the lake above the cottage and further afield near Portmagee & Valentia Island. We did the Bendee circular loop and the views were spectacular and worth the very steep climb to get to the top! Denise was really helpful about local information and greeted us with some freshly baked scones (yum!) Great bakery near the bridge in Killorglan but we found the Supervalu in Cahersiveen the best of the local supermarkets and it's definitely the closest one to the cottage. Mobile signals and data roaming were reasonable (EE), but not in every part of the house because of the stone walls. If you want to switch off and get some fresh air, you won't be disappointed.

Cozy cottage with amazing views.

We loved our week in this cozy cottage. It was so great to come home and build a peat fire in the wood stove after a day of hiking or sightseeing. The kitchen was well equipped to cook our meals of delicious locally caught fish and the view is amazing. It's enough off the Ring of Kerry that you are nowhere near the hustle and bustle.Denise was great...especially helping us find out way to the house when we arrived in the dark (later than expected) and leaving fresh scones waiting on the kitchen table for us. If we are in Kerry again, we would love to stay here again!

Een cottage met een fantastische ligging!

De ligging is geweldig, je bevindt je midden in de natuur, met zicht op zee en , bij helder weer, het schiereiland Dingle. Er is een mooi terras met picknickbank, waar we jammer genoeg niet veel gebruik hebben van gemaakt, omdat het te koud was. Dat impliceert wel dat de weg ernaar toe, althans de laatste 10 km, heel smal is .... Het huis is gezellig en comfortabel, maar bij minder goed weer moeilijk te verwarmen. Bovendien moet je achteraf de gemaakte verwarmingskosten nog betalen. In de slaapkamer zijn de muren hier en daar beschimmeld door de vochtigheid. Je kan prachtige wandelingen maken in de omgeving, al moet je wel goed geïnformeerd zijn en weten dat er veel valt te klimmen.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is located near Kells at a cul-de-sac country lane about four kilometers of the famous Ring of Kerry. It enjoys magnificient views of Dingle Bay and the Dingle Peninsula. The area around the cottage is called Roads and has got nothing to do with traffic or noise. On the contrary the area is a tranquil Irish country side setting and also is part of the internationally recognised Kerry Dark Reserve. No light polution but millions of stars in clear nights with many astronomical sights to be seen with the naked eye. The nearest grocery shop, a souvenir shop with beautiful Irish garments and crystal glass as well as a Panorama Restaurant is only four kilometers from the house. The lively market town of Cahersiveen with several traditional Irish pubs, shops and restaurants is ten kilometers away. The near vicinity of the house offers plenty of opportunities for activities like walking the Kerry mountains, cycling on quiet country lanes, playing golf, fishing off the rocks near Kells Harbour, boat trips to the Skellig Rocks, deep sea angling with charter boats or visit the many ancient cultural sites of the Celts. Kells House Subtropical Garden is just a stroll away from the house.
