About this property

Ballinskelligs 4 miles.

Overlooking St Finian's Bay and located just 4 miles from the popular seaside village of Ballinskelligs, County Kerry is this pretty, detached, holiday cottage. Set across one floor and offering basic but comfortable accommodation, the highlight of this Ballinskelligs cottage is undoubtedly the panoramic sea views that can be enjoyed to the front while lounging in the sunny, south-facing garden. The three bedrooms at this Ballinskelligs cottage include two twin rooms, representing perfect sleeping accommodation for a family group, or small gathering of friends. Hikers can enjoy hillwalking from the doorstep, while the spectacular Skellig Rocks, which can be viewed in the distance, are home to a 7th century monastery and can be reached by a short, invigorating boat ride - a must see for visitors to the area. Sea fishing can be enjoyed locally, while there is a selection of golf courses nearby, most notably the Waterville Golf Links. The Blue Flag beach at Ballinskelligs is always popular with families, and young visitors can take advantage of the playground just a stone's throw away. The cottage is also just half a mile from the local beach and a chocolate factory! The wonderful scenic drives of the Skellig Ring and the more famous Ring of Kerry are easily accessible, making this Ballinskelligs cottage a wonderful base from which to explore this beautiful region of Ireland.

Ballinskelligs is situated on Skellig Ring between Waterville and Valentia Island. Miles of golden beaches can be found in the area, along with watersports and boast trips. Also available is horse riding, walking and cycling, as well as many delightful towns and villages.

    It has everything you may need and feels very much like a home. Fabulous views of the coastline. People in the village friendly and helpful.

    .. We found the cottage a bit hot at times and despite turning the heating off on the timer in the utility room , the heating still came on. We ended up turning most of the radiators off. It would also be useful if there was an information pack explaining how the heating works, the arrangements for rubbish disposal. (Household waste can be left at the community centre as can your recycling with the exception of bottles). A bottle bank is available at Cable O'Leary's a few miles away. We had 2 excellent meals at The Driftwood Surf Cafe and at the Hake Hatch takeaway a few hundred yards away. Again this info would be useful . Overall though we had a great time at this cottage and can highly recommend it.
