This was our home away from home that we used as a meeting point and home base for exploring the local area. It was a wonderful place to stay with plenty of space for our kids.
Had a fabulous time at this wonderful property! Kids of all ages had there needs met. Very well equipped with all the comforts needed for a lovely stay!
We had a great week at this beautiful home with an amazing view. Short drives to great local hikes, whiskey tasting in Killarney, the Dingle Peninsula, a boat trip to Skellig Michael, and pubs in Killorglin. And we were lucky to be in Killorglin for the first day of Puck Fair.
Tom is a great host, easy to reach and with lots of great suggestions. Thank you, Tom!
Ring of Kerry was our goal and that is why we chose this property…. But this property offered so much more! I wish our stay was longer as the countryside and view was fantastic! Hot water situation on the main floor was the only issue, but after a week and a half in Ireland, we weren’t surprised and it didn’t take away from the great rooms and beds! For a group of 8, this was perfect!
We were initially drawn to this property's central location: equally distant from Dingle, Skellig Michael, and Killarney National Park. We were delighted to find that it was set up for families. Our family of 5 included ages 15-79, and there was more than enough room. There were two rooms that were decorated cheerfully for younger guests from the lighting fixture to wall art to a children's library, and a travel crib was available for anyone needing it. The other bedrooms were very comfortable and roomy with plenty of closet space, reading material, and extra bedding, towels (including beach towels), and more books. The mountain view from the sitting room was beautiful. We arrived to a bottle of wine and clear information about the house and the local restaurants, grocery stores, etc.The owner responded quickly to all inquiries. This was a relaxing home to return to after our outings each day. I would definitely recommend it.
Très belle maison dans un vaste jardin arboré. Tout y est prévu et disponible .
Nous avons visité le Kerry et la péninsule de Dingle .
