Wow !! I have rented many VBRO properties for many years and none have matched the view of this one. The entire experience deserves a 12 out of 10. Brian the property manager exceeded all expectations in every regard. The communications before and during our stay was Exceptional along with the check-in and checkout. There are many wonderful places to stay in Ireland but this property was magical. The nearby Pubs, the hikes, the scenery and location are perfect. Our hope is to return for a full month. We were very blessed to find this vacation home.
We highly recommend this wonderful home ! Brian the host was a fantastic guide for the area and responded to any request or questions immediately. We are a family of 7 with adult children and a 10 month old granddaughter and the home was perfect for us. Clean, well equipped and perfectly located with breathtaking views and a perfect setting. Book this home for your perfect holiday / vacation.
AMAZING! I have been wanting to stay at this property for years, and it did not disappoint. One of the BEST vacation homes we've ever rented. We will absolutely be back.

It was a pleasure hosting this family and we are so happy they enjoyed there stay with us in the neck of the Dingle peninsula...thank you Julia for the great review.
We loved staying at the Stone House! We stayed for two weeks in November. It was comfortably warm, spacious and cosy, tastefully furnished and well equipped. And the view is really to die for!
The setting of this charming stone cottage is one of the best views I have ever seen. Also, there are so many beautiful trails nearby and historic sites to see. We had an amazing time!
Everything was amazing. The view, the property the village. We all can’t wait to go back

Beautiful location and lovely host
Our family very much enjoyed our week on the Dingle Peninsula. It was nice to be the kind of tourist that stays in one place instead of trying too see too much. The house was perfect for us and the view was amazing (according to our 2 teenagers).

We could not have loved our stay more! Brian was an amazing host and provided wonderful recommendations as well as ensuring we had all we needed. The views were breathtaking, and we hope to return again!
Exactly as advertised. The setting and location on The Dingle Peninsula is one of our favorite places. Communication was great and our stay could not have been easier.

Bright, comfortable house in a beautiful setting.
Staying at the stone house was the best part of our Ireland trip. The house and setting exceeded expectations, and we were made to feel very welcome. We liked being apart from but close enough to Dingle Town, and enjoyed the nearby village pub and pottery gallery/bakery in Baile an Fheirtearaigh.

Gorgeous property in an incredibly special location. The sea and Sybil head in front of you and mountain peaks behind. Lovely walks all around and easy access to the beach. The house was spotless, cozy, and well put together. We can’t wait to return someday.

Fantastic House with One of the Best Views in Ireland
You cannot go wrong staying here. The house is clean, comfortable and well furnished. The hosts, Philomena and Sharon are absolutely lovely people - extremely helpful and friendly, and the view is incredible. Lots of great places to eat nearby, and Dingle is a great town for music and shopping. Highest recommendation posdible!!

We are happy you all enjoyed your stay in our beautiful part of the Dingle peninsula and for allowing us to be your host...we would love to have you back again.
The communication was spot on from what we expected, always responded promptly, the location was just a beautiful spot with the ocean right out the window. I would stay here again and again if the chance to go back comes up. Kids loved having separate rooms and they loved the sheep right out the window. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking to stay in the area

If I could give a higher review I would. Words, like pictures can't even begin to describe the Stone Cottage. The home itself is impeccable, the view is unbelievable, and Brian is wonderful! You never want to leave!!
