Mountain Retreat situated amongst the ruins of the old miners village

Mountain Retreat situated amongst the ruins of the old miners village

10/10 Excellent
"This place was fantastic! The house itself was fabulous, the fireplace was a really lovely and romantic touch (great for honeymoon), and the surrounding ruins are really amazing to walk through, definitely check out the mountain mine shaft trail as well. The whole area is just stunning.The location is great too, just a very short ways into Allihies proper, which is a really charming village with great fish and chips and a couple really nice pubs. If you have to chance to listen to a live music night there I highly, highly recommend it. The museum is also a must see, especially since much of the history there happened on the property you’re staying on. Our host was also excellent! She was very accommodating of our arriving quite late into the evening, and had great recommendations. We absolutely loved our time here!"

"All delightful - especially the staff However the breakfast and dinner were disappointing. The breakfast buffet was poor - and the à la carte was limited . Considering the location surprising that there no fish on offer -2 varieties of irish breakfast? Why no local produce ? The dinner was mediocre and overpriced. It's such a shame as the rest of the hotel was excellent ."

"Absolutely fantastic!! We loved our holiday in Seal cottage. This was the second time we stayed, and as with the first time, the house did not disappoint! Tomas, the property manager was wonderful, great communication, and ensured we had everything we needed to make our stay stress free! The house is well stocked with things like coffee and toilet roll, condiments, and has a great range of appliances, but there are also arm bands, body boards, games, books.. everything you need to make your holiday as enjoyable as possible. The direct access to the beach, sauna and pool is priceless. Our group spent so much time in the water. We had fantastic weather too which was the icing on the cake! We can’t recommend Seal cottage highly enough!"
