Modern, spacious house. We loved design of the living areas and large bedrooms, esp. jaccuzzi bath. Situated on hillside over looking Kenmare bay and mountains the views are breath taking. Owners very helpful when travel arrangements had to be changed.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We have rented Bun Cill Atha twice, one in June 2008 and again in June 2009. We are now booking our 3rd rental for May 2011. We have done many rental in Ireland, Scotland and Europe and Bun Cill Atha is the best experience we have ever had. The cottage is in a stunning location, beautifully furnished, reasonably priced, and immaculately clean. The owner, Jer Foley, couldn't have been more helpful. It was a wonderful experience. That is why we are returning for our third. rental.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0
