Town: Located on Valentia Island - which lies off the coast of the Iveragh Peninsula in County Kerry – Knightstown is a wonderful spot for a holiday.

It also offers a variety of sightseeing boat trips and fishing trips from its picturesque harbour.

Wonderful cottage. Beautiful location.
This was our second stay at Brendan's cottage. The location is great. We love looking out on the Atlantic right from the cottage. The host Peter was very accommodating. We will surely be returning in the future.
