Wonderful stay!

We loved staying at Siobhan's cottage -- amazing views, a warm welcome from the host, and easy access to fantastic activities. House was very comfortable for family with 2 kids; kids enjoyed playing on the lawn and the spacious bathrooms were much appreciated come bathtime. We would love to visit again!

Cute cottage in Castle Cove

This cottage was roomy and comfortable..it was very clean and had a welcoming feel.. We were greeted by Noreen, the owners Mom, and she was a delight! She showed us around and answered any questions we may have had. The location was great for exploring the Ring of Kerry. Great for couples and those with a large family!

Comfortable retreat

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The unspoilt nature of the surroundings and proximity of the Kerry Way was a plus. The house itself is well appointed; the high ceilings lend a sense of space; the cleanliness and freshness was much appreciated. Our queries were always answered immediately by our host and her mother next door was a charming, welcoming and warm contact.

Great property and location

Beautiful spacious property in a great location. This property is in excellent condition with everything you need. Noreen, the owner's mother is right next door and very helpful. The only reason for lower communication mark is that I was unable to communicate with owner through the booking site but once we phoned number given and spoke to Noreen all was resolved. No hesitation in recommending this property.

Beautiful house, immaculate. Spacious rooms and large walk in shower. Well equipped kitchen, warm. No satellite TV unfortunately. Great views all round, the sea and the mountains. Very welcoming with owners parents next door if we needed anything. It would have been useful to have a signpost to the property as we did get lost. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Good but not quite luxurious

Very nicely appointed and large property. In a stunning location with fantastic views. Good location for exploring the Ring of Kerry by car, bike or walking. Everything that you need to some elements need attention. Superficially clean but when you look closer a bit dusty and cob webby. Several light bulbs not working. Quality of bedding is a bit thin and basic. But we were warmly welcomed on a rainy evening and introduced to the property. Enjoyed our stay. P.s Could do with some 'mood' lighting in the lounge.

A very nice and well-functioning house with nice views and super landlord

We were on our first joint trip to Ireland, family of three generations. We had 6 nights stay. The house is large and well decorated, it accommodates three generations of different needs. There is a nice big kitchen with a large selection of kitchenware. Dining area with views of both the Atlantic Ocean and the mountains. All bedrooms are large and you have every opportunity to get a good night's sleep. Kids loved the hot tub. We were all delighted with how super clean and well maintained there was in every room. We were received very warmly by the landlord's parents who are neighbors. Here is all the help and advice for hiking and local shopping and dining that you want. The house is close to hiking trails and beaches. The splendid Irish scenery and the sheeps is outside the windows. In short, this is the kind of house you dream of when you want to experience Ireland.

Wunderschöner Urlaub!

Das Ferienhaus von Siobhans hat uns sehr, sehr gut gefallen. Morgens mit einer Tasse Kaffee auf der Veranda zu sitzen mit Blick auf die Umgebung und aufs Meer war Freude und Entspannung pur. ( Wir hatten 2 Wochen nur sonniges Wetter ) Die Eltern von Siobhans waren super freundlich und hilfsbereit.Wir würden dieses Ferienhaus jederzeit weiter empfehlen. Einziger Nachteil: Die Lage des Hauses ist nicht mit den Angaben von Maps zu finden. Mit den Angaben steht man vor einer Kirche! Wir sind 1 Stunde dort hin und her gefahren, bis uns eine sehr nette Irin half und bis zum Haus begleitete. Das ist aber auch das Einzige, was nicht so gut war.

Für uns alles Bestens

Es war ein sehr schönes Haus.Uns hat alles gefallen und es ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Sogar eine Kaffeemaschine gibt es. Allerdings sollte man Filtertüten in grösserem Shop kaufen.Die gibt es hier nirgends. Die Betten sind nicht sehr breit. Uns hat es nicht gestört zumal es 4 Schlafzimmer hat und wir gut hätten ausweichen können. Die Besitzer sind ganz liebe Menschen und helfen gerne. Die Aussicht war super. Wir haben es sehr genossen.
