About this property
Hidden amongst the trees, this attractive stone cottage enjoys a peaceful, countryside setting in County Kerry, less than 2 miles from the coast. The property sleeps four guests and makes a great couples’ retreat or base for a small family looking to escape the humdrum of everyday life. The colourful village of Sneem is 1.5 miles away, and boasts an excellent array of independent restaurants, pubs, and coffee shops. The cottage is located on the Iveragh Peninsula, and is surrounded by mountains, rolling hills, and waterways, making it a great base for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts. You’ll also be able to pick up the long-distance Wild Atlantic Way just 1 mile away. For days on the beach, discover the region’s gorgeous stretches of golden sands, including Derrynane Beach (15 miles), with its white sand, turquoise waters, and picture-postcard views of Abbey Island. The vibrant town of Kenmare is 14 miles away, another great spot for hiking, and home to a choice of pubs and restaurants serving local delights.
The detached cottage carefully combines beautiful, original features with contemporary furniture and styling. A bright and airy lounge offers a relaxing space to unwind after a busy day, with a choice of comfortable seating set around a TV and cosy wood burner. From here, a step leads up to a spacious kitchen/diner, with a beamed ceiling, wooden dining table, and all the equipment you need to whip up tasty meals for the group. Completing the ground floor is a stylish shower room and a handy utility room. Upstairs, you’ll find three inviting double bedrooms with sloping ceilings and skylights, along with a second shower room.
The cottage sits within 1.5 acres of woodland, including a wild, untended garden, providing you with plenty of choice when it comes to your morning stroll. Immediately outside the cottage is a patio area with outdoor furniture and a chiminea, the perfect spot for a morning cuppa or al fresco evening meal.
