Living life in sync with the tides
Fantastic bay, 5m from the back of the property. Dolphins were in the bay for 2 days. Perfectly quiet. The Beara Peninsula is truly beautiful.

A wonderful stay in a beautiful unspoilt location
Thank you so much to Dag and Kitty for a wonderful stay. We really enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and to be able to swim from the bottom of the garden every day was amazing.

Cottage by the sea
We were blessed with great weather and so took full advantage of the outdoors. We we’re able to swim from the edge of the garden as well as kayak which we brought with us. A lovely short walk from the cottage allowed us to find another unspoilt swimming spot from a pebble beach. We explored the Peninsula along the beautiful winding country roads along and over the peninsula discovering more beaches and areas of interest. The cottage has everything you need to cook for a family. One thing it didn’t have was a BBQ which with the weather we had would have been a great addition. Would love to return next year.

Heaven on Earth
We had such a wonderful time here for 2 weeks. We hiked, we took long walks right out from the front door. We swam in the tidal pool, swam in the lake Ardgroom, found 5 stone circle and had amazing sunsets. We had visits from the Great Blue Herons and Egrets along with Freda and Freddie the cats. The kitchen is very well equipped and the house is really comfortable. The new bathroom is beautiful. The caretaker, Kitty, brought us DVD's to watch and checked in on us to make sure we ere comfortable and the owners, Dag and Bjorn, were very attentive and communicated very well.We look forward to staying again.

Idyllic spot
The property is located tucked away in a quiet bay within a reasonable drive of the main sights on the Beara peninsula. There is a small shop in nearby Ardgoole a short drive away (10 mins). Our kids loved cycling up and down the lane and stopping at one of the jetties to throw stones and wading in the muddy banks beside the house near the water. We were greeted warmly by those in the neighhourhood. Our favourite excursion was a trip to Ahillies /Garanish beach - highly recommended. The house is rather dated and would benefit from modernisation. The bathroom is a delight. The only major disappointment was the oven does not work properly - it takes ages to cook anything and you end up with under or over cooked food. Not great when you're trying to save money by opting for self catering. We still enjoyed our time at the property and the price matched the conditions - prices are typically high for self catering in Ireland and you get what you pay for. Thank you for a wonderful last minute staycation in Kerry to ease the challenges of Covid.

Wonderful views from a cottage which fell short of expectations
Unclear instructions from owner. Wrong numbers for reception agent Cottage smelt of damp and felt a little grubby. Very tired furniture and bedding. Only 3 dirty mugs for a 3 bedroom property. Ground floor bedroom ( one of peine reasons for booking this property) was uninhabitable Unclear on booking about deposit and that electricity had to be paid on top of rental Shower room was the only acceptable room for this money Happy to discuss further details

Schönste Lage - altes Haus
Das Haus besitzt eine phantastische Lage, direkt am Wasser in absoluter Ruhe (man kann vom Küchentisch aus Robben beobachten). Die Housekeeperin Kitty ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und unkompliziert. Sie kümmert sich jeden Tag um die beiden auf dem Grundstück lebenden Katzen. Das Badezimmer ist recht neu. Im Gegensatz zum Rest des Hauses. Alles sehr alt. Es funktioniert alles (vom Gasofen mit kaputtem Türgriff bis zur Waschmaschine), ist aber renovierungsbedürftig (Möbel, Küche). Leider hatte der Fernseher keinen Empfang (man benötigt dort bei der schönen Aussicht natürlich keinen TV, aber unsere Töchter hätten gerne ein paar WM-Spiele gesehen...)

Traumhaft schön - amazing
Das Haus und die Lage sind traumhaft und es hat alles was man braucht. Das Haus und der Garten waren gepflegt und sauber und die Betreuung vor Ort 5 Sterne! Wir haben uns sofort wohl und willkommen gefühlt, alles lag bereit für uns. Sehr begeistert waren wir auch vom direkten Zugang zum Wasser und die Ruhe. Und doch ist man schnell im schönen Kenmare und am ring of kerry.

Prachtige locatie maar huis te duur voor wat het biedt
Prachtig zicht op de baai, hartelijke ontvangst, maar huis oud en versleten, in de weliswaar gerenoveerde badkamer kwam uit de douche slechts een heel dunne warmwaterstraal, nauwelijks mogelijk warm te douchen, kookfornuis in erbarmelijke staat, penetrante schimmelgeur in de keuken, roestige koelkast, vlekkerige houten vloer in living, stoffig kamerbreed tapijt in de slaapkamer. Alles is gewoon uitgeleefd. We betaalden onbetaamlijk veel voor wat we kregen. Nochtans is van dit huis iets moois te maken mits een grondige renovatie. .
