Lovely stay - gorgeous view

Our family really enjoyed staying at this spacious property with an awesome view over the water - sheep in the field beside us bleating peacefully - house is perfect for a family of six - lots of space - and a well equipped kitchen - clothes washer is great but there is no dryer - which should be corrected on the listing - a good clothes line and interior rack for drying - thanks again - lovely spot to stay

Beautiful location

Lovely stay in this beautiful home with great amenities. I suspect after a long and probably successful summer there’s some touching up needed during the colder months but overall cleanliness was fine and (despite the monsoon weather) we were all cozy.

Great house, beautiful views!

We had a wonderful stay at Skellig Bay Cottage! The house was spacious and comfortable and had everything that we needed. The location was perfect for relaxing in front of the views and short day trips to all of the sights. Our favorite part of the house was the large ocean front window. We all took turns sitting in the comfy chairs reading a book or just taking in the scenery of sheep and ocean. Thank you for a great stay in the Ring of Kerry!

My husband and I were traveling with our daughter and son-in-law and only stayed only one night due to availability! The location is situated over the Atlantic with pretty views and sheep and goats just down the hill!Its location is close to Cahersiveen, Waterville and Derrynane!The cottage was well equipped! The beds were very comfortable and plenty of living space for all to enjoy!It was raining when we arrived and there was a load of wet laundry in the wash! Didn’t see a dryer so tried to dry that the best we could! With wet weather a dryer would be a great addition!Overall, a wonderful, relaxing place to stay. Would recommend more than one night!

Skellig Bay Haven

I can't imagine a more comfortable and spacious house for the five of us. We never tired of the view of the bay, from the many big windows and from our walks along the little road. The only downside was that it was so pleasant and I was so intimidated by driving that we didn’t head out on lots of adventures like I'd planned!
