About this property

Carrig Beag - a carrig beag that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Carraig Beag - Close to town but in a quiet area

This property stands in one of the beautiful Victorian terraces that still grace the town. The quiet location is still only a few steps from bars and restaurants. The cottage is ideal for 4 people and has been modernised while retaining its quaint character and old world cosiness.Carraig Beg stands in Market Street, one of the historic lanes in the heart of Kenmare. It is an end house in one of the beautiful Victorian terraces that still grace the town. The quiet back street location is just a stone's throw from Kenmare's wealth of restaurants and bars. All amenities and services are close at hand but sitting in the sun in the rear garden, the hustle and bustle of the town seems light years away.

Carrig Beag is more of a real home than a holiday home. It is a very comfortable, easily manageable house. Very quiet location yet only a two minute walk from the centre of town. The town itself has a number of classy restaurants and some very enjoyable pubs.

Disappointing.
Don't like to leave negative reviews but I wouldn't like anyone else to have the same experience that I had. Lovely house from the outside and great location. However upon entering the building, it was cold, damp and there was a stale smell. All windows were letting air in, they need fixing. There's a gap under the front door that you could fit your hand under. Bed uncomfortable, no ventilation in the ensuite, crap towels. I tried to cancel the booking a week before we were due to arrive as there was 4 of us meant to be going, but due to a bereavement two people couldn't attend. I was met with the reply "what did you bother booking it for if you weren't able to come". So let's just say it was a very expensive weekend and I couldn't wait to get home.

About the host

Host profile image
Kenmare Rentals is the most recent addition to our family business. Owning and managing O'Donnabhain's Bar & Guest House for many years, we have seen an opening for Self Catering / Holiday Homes as many of our initial guests who are staying with us for the last few years, are spending longer periods here, and it is another alternative.. We have also realised that it can be more cost-efficient and often more convenient for guests who are visiting Kenmare for longer periods of time, to make themselves at home in one of our Self Catering Holiday Homes . If it is your dream to spend a week in a Holiday Cottage in Co. Kerry, then we can make that dream come true.
In recent years, we have therefore newly built or carefully restored, and lovingly furnished and fitted out a small number of Self Catering properties in or near Kenmare town. The properties were designed and finished to our own high standards of comfort and requirement for space, and will truly offer you a home away from home. Kenmare is an ideal base to explore, the South West of Ireland . Co. Kerry, with the Ring of Kerry, Muckross House, and the Gap of Dunloe on your doorstep, as well as the beautiful Ring of Beara in Co. Cork, which starts in Kenmare.
