Perfection

Bridget was an amazing host, going above and beyond to be helpful in providing a beautiful vacation home. She is very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. The accommodations were immaculate, comfortable, well equipped, scenic, and in close proximity to all “The Ring of Kerry” has to offer. I would highly recommend this property to any family or small group who are looking for a spacious retreat with all the comforts of home. Thank you Bridgette for a wonderful stay!

Ancestral homage

Our forebears emigrated from this part of Co. Kerry, which is why we chose to visit. Bridget and Dan were wonderful “hosts.” The home is clean, well-appointed and central to everything we wanted to do in the area. Highly recommend this property!

Extrem zu empfehlen

Die Vermieterin lebt nebenan. ==> schneller Kontakt Der Kontakt war sehr gut bis herzlich. Das Haus hat drei Schlafzimmer, 3 Bäder, Küche und Wohnraum. Küche gut ausgestattet, auch mit Gewürzen und Grundnahrungsmitteln. Es fehlte uns an gar nichts. Besser geht es kaum.

Top Unterkunft direkt am Ring of Kerry

Das Hillcrest House ist bestens gepflegt, hat drei Schlafzimmer, jeweils mit Toilette und Dusche sowie eine Küche mit Spülmaschine, ein großzügiges Esszimmer sowie ein Wohnzimmer mit Fernsehen. Alles war sauber und funktionierte. Die Lage ist außerordentlich gut für Ausflüge. Wir waren jeweils einen Tag am Ring of Kerry, auf der Dingle-Halbinsel sowie im Nationalpark Killarney. Dem super Wetter geschuldet haben wir außerdem einen Tag am riesigen Strand in Glenbeigh verbracht. Von unseren drei Unterkünften während unserer Irlandreise war dies definitiv die beste, aber nicht die teuerste! Karl Kemle

The best place to stay in Kerry. Best host.

Bridget, our host, made our Kerry holiday spectacular. The house is wonderful and well situated in the center of all that County Kerry has to offer. We came for my American mum's 80th birthday and Bridget even delivered a birthday cake as a surprise. Everything exceeded our expectations. Out of 10 stars, I rate this venue as an 11!

Premium rental property which exceeds all expectations

We really cannot rate Hillcrest Cottage highly enough, from the abundant facilities and perfect location close to Glenbeigh, Rossbeigh, Killorglin and Cromane, to the spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, this property has it all. If that wasn't enough the owner Bridget could not have been more friendly and helpful both in advance of and during our stay. We had a fabulous week in a superb property and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a vacation rental property in the Glenbeigh area.

Property had the perfect location for visits to Killarney, Gap of Dunloe, Dingle and the Ring of Kerry, to name a few. Enjoying have a "home away from home" during my 4 week stay. Hosts, Bridget and Dan, were so friendly and house had everything we needed for a lengthy stay.
