This cottage was a beautiful place to stay. Plenty of room for a multigenerational group to have as a hub for exploring the southwest of Ireland. Plenty close to places like the Gap of Dunloe. So relaxing and lovely. Debra met us and made sure all was good. Would recommend to everyone!

This property managed to meet so many needs at the same time! It was in the country, yet a very short drive to food and shops. It looks tiny but is very spacious on the inside: huge kitchen, nice living room, numerous bathrooms. The host was fantastic, responsive, and friendly. She was great with the craic as well! We were quite close to the Ring of Kerry, which we saw on our second day. It seemed very much like it was out of fairy tale, but with Wi-Fi! Would definitely stay again and hope to soon.
