The layout is easy to move around in, well maintained and decorated. All manner of helpful aids were provided to enable a wide range of cooking styles. All crockery, bedlinen, soft furnishings were clean and undamaged. The owners were available by phone if needed and were charming and informative when we met in person. Waterville is a popular stopping place on the Ring of Kerry and benefits from tourism throughout the year. Musical entertainment was available and enjoyable at a number of venues locally - just ask.

Cottage was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Everything you could need was there. So glad we came and would come again.

The views of the Lough fill the entire front of the home including a lovely sunroom. It is quiet, private and the home is spotless. John met us and showed us how everything worked. Mary had left us a tea tray with fresh scones, Irish butter, milk, and tea makings. The village is lovely and we had our 59th wedding anniversary dinner at The Lobster Pub. There are fantastic walks and Skellig Michael is nearby. Thank you John and Mary for your kindness and this lovely part of Ireland
