Derrynane Lodge is a restored farmhouse idyllically located on the Ring of Kerry. It is set in its own private gardens of six acres of lush vegetation with wonderful views of local beaches, amazing coastline and surrounding mountainous landscape. The garden is fully enclosed with lawned areas intermingled with mature shrubs. Located in the grounds is an all-weather tennis court.
The village of Caherdaniel is a short drive of 2.8km. Freddie's pub and grocery store located in the village will be one of your main ports of call. The Blind Piper pub, also in the village, serves food all year round and is worth a visit. During the summer months the local country market is open on Friday mornings. Two superb Blue Flag beaches are within easy reach of Derrynane Lodge making it an ideal holiday venue. Derrynane Beach is a five minute drive and Ballinskelligs Beach is 30 minutes.

This would have been a stunningly beautiful property once, but needed a lot of repair works to the roof, particularly as the weather tends to be very wet we had a bucket in several rooms when it rained hard!! The location and much of the property was perfect for our family holiday. This property was so rural we had the mice too!! All our concerns were dealt with swiftly by the John who was always very helpful and sorted out central heating issues and mice. The owners couldn't be more welcoming and generous. Lovely bedding, towels, toiletries, tea towels, plenty of fuel. Hot water and a beautiful big bath, open fires, everything to keep us warm. I am sorry to rate it poor, and this does not reflect what we actually felt as much of the property was excellent for us, but mice and leaks in three rooms was not really acceptable.

The house is very much a family holiday house. It is located in a beautiful part of County Kerry. It was well equipped. The owner was very helpful and friendly. Considerate and thoughtful. I sent a feedback form to Rural Retreats. Suggestions: improve lighting in the bathrooms. It could be brighter. Make up mirrors? For the kitchen, add a grill pan with a rack, apron, kitchen knives for chopping onions, etc., kitchen scissors. Although there were only two of us, as the cottage is for eight people, there should be more than one hair dryer.
