Fabulous location, great well equipped house, owner really accommodating. The house is always immaculate, kitchen is well equipped, beds very comfortable. Location is near two villages with two very nice cafes with amazing pastries. Great walks and a short drive to several lovely beaches. Always a fantastic experience when staying here.

We know the area well so find it the perfect location for exploring the Ring of Kerry. Mr Sweeney greets us like old friends and leaves us to it for the week. Itâs handy having him next door but we didnât see/need him at all. The cottage is modern, spacious, clean, well equipped and totally met the needs of 6 adults. The view is to die for and, despite some misty days, we made the most of admiring the stunning landscape around us. I would not hesitate to recommend the cottage and we will certainly be back soon
