Hillwalking: This is a good area for walkers as there are 2 sections of the Kerry Way walking route or for the more energetic, the majestic mountains in the surrounding area.

Waterville: Waterville is situated in the heart of Ireland's most spectacular beautiful area, The Ring of Kerry.
It is famous for its world ranked golf course, its trout and salmon angling and its golden sandy beaches. Waterville lies on a narrow strip of land between the Athlantic and Lough Currane. Waterville and its surrounding area offers a number of breathtaking walks and places to see. The most scenic of these walks is the Coomakista Pass.
Waterville village has many fine restaurants, pubs, shops, craft stores, post office, garage, internet cafés and coffee shops. The village has attracted many famous celebrities over the years, Charlie Chaplin, Tiger Woods, Payne Stewart, Mark O'Meara.......to name but a few.
There are the most astounding views from this elevated site and sitting out will be a real pleasure. Quiet and in a peaceful, relaxed area, there is the added bonus of travelling and touring just a mile down the road, where you can go into Waterville for water activities, including sea fishing, sailing, swimming and safe beaches. Golfing and a lovely selection of pubs and restaurants are awaiting in the town that is famous for its links with Charlie Chaplin.

There is something for everyone: the craft market, the heritage site of the Skellig Islands and the main Ring of Kerry route leading to Killarney, and the idyllic scenery. This is a base for a holiday of memories and one where one visit will not be enough.
Water ville Golf Links is ranked in the Worlds top 20 and Ireland top 5 Links courses. Links Land is a rarity and less than one percent of courses in both Ireland and the British Isles are championship Links. Water ville is one of these blessed places hence it regularly attracts the Worlds top golfers who test their mettle here. Golf at Water ville is a mystical experience - the beauty of classic links land, surrounded by the sea, yet forever changed and by the elements. At over 100 years old it is ranked as one of the top 5 courses in Ireland and the top 20 Links courses in the World. Links Golf combines sand dunes gorse and native grasses, firm fairways, sod faced bunkers and subtle putting surfaces all intertwined by the ever changing weather. Forget the lob wedge. Think bump and run creative shot making. Are you ready to are walk in the footsteps of the earliest golfers. http://www.watervillegolfclub.ie/

Hogs Head Golf Course

Overlooking the magistic Ballinskelligs Bay and set among natural megalithic stonework and indigenous Bog Deal, there can be few places more visually stunning locations for a golf course than Hogs Head.

Here the awesome beauty of the Bay hits you as you play through holes framed by over 8000 yards of ancient 'famine' walls.'Skellig Bay is full of challenging golf holes', says the the Sunday Independent Golf correspondent Dermot

Wonderful family stay in gorgeous location
Kathleen was the perfect host and her holiday home was honestly incredible. So much space and light with beautiful views from every window. Kathleen was so accommodating when we had to add an extra guest to the party and came over to talk us through everything. The location is brilliant for exploring the Skelligs and this beautiful part of the Kerry ring All in all, it was all just standout brilliant and my only regret is that we weren't staying another week!

What can I say, an absolutely gorgeous house and what a view!! The house exceeded our expectations- we travel with 2 wheelchair users and often struggle but this house was perfect for us. Kathleen was very quick at responding to our messages and extremely helpful with all our queries. The local area was full of friendly people and so very beautiful. I would 100% recommend this place for a perfect holiday, we all would love to go again

Wonderful In Soooo Many Ways
We have fallen in love with Waterville, the (very blessed to live there) locals, the absolutely incredible Lake House (as we now call it), it’s stunning views and most especially our hosts, Kathleen and Timmy. And, we can’t forget to mention their darling dog, Freddie. What I was looking for in a house was a peat burning fire, location, views, and near a village. This is me….my husband also loved the spacious house, not that I didn’t. Timmy made certain we had plenty of peat. He even rescued a sheep that got stuck in a fence in a neighbor’s pasture that we noticed and let him know. Kathleen made sure all our needs were taken care of. They went above and beyond making our stay incredible. So many adjectives, I know…..but well deserved! Please say hello to Dan and Fiona, the owners of our favorite pub, Mick O’Dwyers. We miss everyone already! We WILL be back! Kris and Lori

A view to die for!
Secluded house with amazing views of Lough Currane; plenty of room and parking. Everything we needed was in the house. Wonderful to sit outside and picnic over the lough and then watch the sunsets late into the evening. Waterville a short drive away to shops, bars, restaurants and beach. We loved our stay there.

Idyllic
Sheep bleat peacefully in the field below, rabbits meander across the lawn, the view of the loch is entrancing from Lake House on Lake Road. Ireland treated us to warm, dry weather so we trekked Kerry Way, Skellig Bay, and the Cliffs of Kerry enjoying the emerald green hills and azure blue seas. Do you know that cows come trotting if you sing to them? Waterville County Kerry, not to be confused with the other nearby Waterville County Limerick, would seem to be “far from the madding crowd” in southwest County Kerry, but as a popular tourist stop on the Ring of Kerry, it provides both little breakfast nooks and evening fine dining. If the local grocery doesn’t meet your needs (it did ours) bigger towns and bigger stores are not far. Just two of us, we rattled around in the big house, but enjoyed the front room with an expansive view north to the loch, morning sun rays on the clouds to the right and stunning sunsets to the left. Living in always-beautiful Southern California, we looked forward to traditional cold-windy-rainy Irish weather and the peat fueled fireplace to provide a cozy spot to read and sip Red Breast Irish whiskey. But, sadly, the only rain we saw was driving back to Dublin, so we never lit the fire. Someone wrote that if they’d had more time they could have made their letter shorter, and that’s true of this review, too. Truth is, idyllic says it all.

If you want quiet, yet gorgeous views, proximity to the town of Waterville, the beach and Hogs Head area, this house can’t be beat. Spacious rooms, big kitchen, and the most responsive host of all. We will return, thank you for sharing this comfortable home with us!!

Celebrated a special occasion in a wonderful setting.
The house is set in a fabulous location just outside of Waterville with beautiful views of the lake and sunsets. It is very spacious, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our family holiday. I would say the photos do not do it justice. Communication with Kathleen was excellent and she was very welcoming on arrival and when we were leaving. As a family of 8, with 3 generations from 10 to 70 years we would highly recommend this holiday home and hope to return next year!

Waterville Lake-House
Dear Kathleen, Thanks again for your support. You were always available for questions and organization before the holiday and especially during this time and have made our vacation so much easier. The house is great, it is very quiet on the lake and has a great view of this. The large bedrooms, the huge kitchen and the great living room leave nothing to be desired. We felt very comfortable and will certainly be back. Bye for now...
