River Farm comprises two cottages for rental - ANNIES COTTAGE, sleeping 6 and one of the most popular holiday cottages in Kerry and RIVER COTTAGE, sleeping 4 - an original Kerry Farmhouse that has been lovingly renovated and updated over the last ten years. Both cottages are surrounded by fields and a small stream runs through the property. It is very safe for children as both cottages are approached via a small ‘dead end’ lane which runs up to the mountain behind the cottages. The owners fields are occupied by pet sheep and lambs (in season), together with donkeys and free range hens. Views of the sea are possible from the garden as well as from Annie’s Cottage. Inch Beach with it's four miles of white sand and dunes(and increasingly a surfing and paragliding mecca) is no more than 15 minutes drive, whilst the beauty of Killarney National Park and it's lakes are also within easy reach. A local grocery shop (8am to 10pm, daily) is only 10 mins. walk away. Dogs are welcome.

Proximity to the best Kerry attractions and sites: Annie's Cottage is ideally situated for Killarney National Park, and the Kerry Way, the Dingle Peninsula and Tralee.

A 30 minute drive will allow you to visit Muckross House, the famous Killarney Lakes, Angel Falls, Ross Castle, the old Copper mInes, the Gap of Dunloe and Kate Kearney's Cottage as well as walk throughout the beautiful meadows, mountains and woods of Killarney National Park.
From Killarney you can embark on the Kerry Way by foot or cycle or drive to the end of the Ring of Kerry (and back) visiting Killorglin, Glebeigh, Caherciveen, Valentia Island, Waterville, Caherdaniel, Sneem and Kenmare - a memorable journey indeed.
Similar excursions by car and foot can take place on the Dingle Peninsular discovering the wild scenery, breathtaking mountain passes and white sandy beaches. This peninsular also has the highest concentration of megalithic sites in Europe.
A catalogue of festivals - food, music, culture, film and horseracing - take place throughout the year

Details:
RIVER COTTAGE is at least 150 years old and is a classic 'Three room stone-built Kerry farmhouse'. It has been sympathetically renovated over the last ten years, retaining many of the features of the original cottage, including slate floors, lime wash walls, sash windows and the large open fireplace and wood burning stove in the main living room. The cottage has full oil-fired central heating and has a southerly aspect so is light , cosy and warm throughout the year. The spacious kitchen and dining area have been added on to the back of the cottage and were designed for our own family of nine. As such, they provide extensive entertaining, cooking and relaxation space for a small cottage and open out onto the wooden decking and barbeque area and pictoresque cottage garden at the rear. Views of Caherconree (Ireland's 4th highest mountain) and the Slieve Mish mountains are possible from both the kitchen and dining areas....more collapse

Stunning place to spend a week's holiday
- Guest Helen

The cottage is situated on the Dingle Peninsula, in between Castlemaine and Inch. Dingle itself, a great town to visit, is about 30 minutes drive from the cottage. There is so much to see and do in Kerry, we felt a week wasn't long enough. Most of our days were spent walking in the countryside. Muckross House, Derrynane House and their grounds were just two highlights. The scenery is breathtaking, as are the inclines to the tops of the mountains! The cottage itself is beautiful. Lovingly looked after and very comfortable, it was an ideal holiday home for our daily excursions. It is very spacious place and fully equipped. The owners, Nick and Anne, were great hosts and were on hand when needed. We have great memories and would definitely consider returning.

Wonderful stay at the River Cottage! Our first trip to Ireland couldn't have been better! Dingle, Kayaking with Fungi (the Dolphin), Horseback Riding and the breathtaking Killarney National Park. Chilly and rainy most days but that's Ireland, right? That's also why we loved the open fireplace! Your whole family, to include all the animals are delightful. Thanks you for the warm welcome.

Nick and Anne were terrific hosts, the cottage was perfect, and the Dingle Peninsula was more beautiful than I could have expected. Nick provided driving directions from Dublin for me and promised to be by his cell phone if I had any trouble. Highlights of the cottage were the wood burning stove, the easy to use laundry machine, and Nick's sheep in the field next to the cottage. I had a great few days staying their by myself, but it also is a great set-up for families with the second bedroom, a collection of boardgames, and all the different pets. I'm glad I chose to stay at Nick and Anne's cottage instead of in Dingle Town. It was a quieter more suburban setting with an easy and breathtaking drive into Dingle. Despite its remoteness - fuel and groceries and bars were all quite convenient. I can't recommend River Cottage enough.

You have wonderful animals, especially Yala (the dog) who tried to open the door many times and come and stay with us. Loved the garden, donkeys, sheep and wood burning stove. Ireland is green, gorgeous, friendly and lyrical too. Thank You
