"We love this Bed and Breakfast. The owners were lovely, and the property had everything you could need or want. The little guest kitchen was handy, and there was a nice playroom that our 4 year old enjoyed. Breakfast was simple, but good, and they had gluten free options for us. The mattress in our room seems like it’s ready to be replaced, but other than that, no complaints!"

Beachside holiday home in stunning location overlooking the wild Atlantic way.

10/10 Excellent
"It would be difficult to imagine a more ideal place to spend time in Kerry. Close to the beach, hiking trails, a small village with a pub and food store; and yet a feeling of privacy and isolation as well. Fresh blackberries were plentiful in the brambles around the home. A well-stocked kitchen, books and games made it feel like a home; you can tell the place is well-loved by its owners. We loved it too!"
