Excellent!

This is one of the nicest places we’ve ever stayed on our many trips to Ireland. It was convenient to many locations such as Dingle and Killarney but was located in the country. I can’t say enough about the well appointed home and it’s comfort.

Four seasons in a week!

We had a wonderful stay here. Being located on the Ring of Kerry means that there's always something to do and see. You need a car to get around but everything you could possibly desire in a property is provided. Our host went out of her way to help and you will not be disappointed.

Ancestral homage

Our forebears emigrated from this part of Co. Kerry, which is why we chose to visit. Bridget and Dan were wonderful “hosts.” The home is clean, well-appointed and central to everything we wanted to do in the area. Highly recommend this property!

Lovely stay on quiet countriside.

We felt at home immediately. Great scenery through the windows. It’s just a minute away from the ring of Kerry. Bridget was very friendly and took all the time for us. The bed rooms were spacious and we liked the extra bathrooms. We akso liked that the kitchen was well equiped. We would liked to have stayed longer.

Cosy house with a spectacular view

My wife and I spent a week in this lovely house whilst visiting our daughter studying nearby. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. The house is equipped with everything you need: a good kitchen with dining room, three bedrooms with two en suites and an additional bathroom, central heating, a large living room, satellite TV and ample parking space. We very much enjoyed the quiet surroundings and spectacular views. An ideal house for exploring Kerry, not far off Kerry Airport. We would like to stay again at this wonderful place.

Perfection

Bridget was an amazing host, going above and beyond to be helpful in providing a beautiful vacation home. She is very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. The accommodations were immaculate, comfortable, well equipped, scenic, and in close proximity to all “The Ring of Kerry” has to offer. I would highly recommend this property to any family or small group who are looking for a spacious retreat with all the comforts of home. Thank you Bridgette for a wonderful stay!

The best place to stay in Kerry. Best host.

Bridget, our host, made our Kerry holiday spectacular. The house is wonderful and well situated in the center of all that County Kerry has to offer. We came for my American mum's 80th birthday and Bridget even delivered a birthday cake as a surprise. Everything exceeded our expectations. Out of 10 stars, I rate this venue as an 11!

excellent base for touring Kerry

Welcomed warmly by the owner we found a spotless place with flowers on the table, milk in the fridge, teabags ready and a selection of cookies to make us feel at home at once. The house is spacious, excellently maintained and equipped with everything you need. You will not miss anything. If you want to explore the Ring of Kerry or travel around the Dingle Peninsula you will find the place an ideal base, quietly situated off the N 70 but still with easy access to all the places of interest in the surrounding area. The owner is exceptionally helpful, more than happy to give advice but in no way intrusive at all. We can strongly recommend the accomodation to both couples seeking a private holiday retreat and families with children looking for a variety of outdoor activities. The stunning Rossbeigh beach is only a 5 minute drive away and worth an extended stroll in any weather.

Ein wundervoller Aufenthalt bei sehr freundlichen Gastgebern! Eine absolute Empehlung!

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in der Ferienwohnung von Bridget!Wir hatten am Ankunftstag Stau und sind somit erst 2 Stunden später dort angekommen, aber ein kurzer Anruf bei Bridget und die Sache war geklärt. Sie hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und das Haus gezeigt, sie hatte sogar ein paar kleine Willkommensgeschenke (Brot und Butter, Apfel-Tartelettes, Schoko-Kekse und Milch) vorbereitet.Das Haus ist komplett ausgestattet; die Beschreibung stimmt zu 100% überein. Alles ist sehr gepflegt, wir haben uns sofort wohlgefühlt und hatten ein "Zuhause-Gefühl". Bridget und ihr Mann Dan wohnen direkt nebenan im B&B, was bei Problemen kurze Wege bedeutet hatte. Wir hatten jedoch absolut nichts zu bemängeln!Von der Lage ist das Haus auch perfekt; quasi direkt am Ring of Kerry und doch weit genug entfernt (1 Minute) für einen ruhigen Aufenthalt. Bis nach Killorglin sind es keine 10 km (SuperValu, Aldi) und bis nach Killarney ist es auch nicht so weit.Wie gesagt, wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt dort. OK, wir hatten auch echt Glück mit dem Wetter und hatten 14 Tage Sonnenschein. Aber unabhängig vom Wetter: wir freuen uns schon, wenn wir dort das nächste Mal wieder in den Urlaub gehen können. Es war definitiv nicht das letzte Mal in dem Objekt.
