Jul 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Bedrock cottage: peace and quiet Wonderful views over the Kenmare River. A great area for sitting outside, with picnic table. Big windows. Surrounded by trees, flowers and birds. Super efficient heating and Wi-Fi. Well-equipped kitchen. Quite remote, up a narrow lane, not suitable for driving back after an evening in the pub! Needs a little updating: curtains in bedrooms are very thin, letting in light in the mornings; a couple of floor lamps in the sitting area would make reading easier in the evenings; and a new sofa would be nice. Anyway we had a great stay - and if you like peace and quiet, and great views, this one’s for you! ##### Nicholas A. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cyril L.

Sep 16, 2016 #### Cosy practical cottage with a fantastic view with floor warming everywhere I can only be enthousiastic about this cottage. Warm welcome with several presents, much privacy. The floorwarming made it feel warm everywhere. Much light entered the windows, showing a scenary beyond imagination. I felt home from the first moment. The kitchen and all equipment functioned well . That was not the case in several former cottages.The central location near Killarny National Park and the ocean did not require long trips to experience extraordinarily natural beauty. Only the weather was challenging that week. ##### DIRK L. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne F. Jun 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful Cottage Above Kenmare Bay We enjoyed an idyllic respite at Patrick’s cottage on a hill overlooking the bay. Bedrock Cottage was a perfect spot from which to take day trips to Beara and Kerry Peninsulas, Kenmare, Killarney, and more. The cottage is perched above a valley, where on our first evening we watched a dog herd cattle back to a nearby barn. The view was different every day; the changing colors in the water and various formations of mists between mountains and water invariably spectacular. Bees, birds, and butterflies…lovely flowers and foliage…the setting is truly bucolic. Patrick was very responsive to our questions. This was our first trip to Ireland, and we loved it all—from the music and pints in the pubs to the cow standing atop a boulder on a remote outcropping near Allihies. We hope to return soon! ##### Anne F. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### anne f. Jan 20, 2017 #### rest and relaxation Cottage was neat, clean, and as described. View was lovely even when the fog rolled in. Great spot to recuperate from surgery. Have to say the best was owner Patrick. We had a few challenges immediately. The internet was not working properly; fixed quickly. The oven broke New Years Eve and within a few hrs we had a replacement for our roast chicken dinner celebration. Next, the gas went out on the cook-top and we had a replacement propane tank within an hour. Can not say enough nice things about Patrick! He brought us a beautiful basket of goodies for our troubles. He has some good reads on his bookshelf as well. Kenmare is a lovely spot and very quiet at this time of the year. Hopefully, we can find another time to revisit. Anne and Calvin ##### anne f. Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2016 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter W. Sep 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Fantastisch! Voor de 2e keer hier geweest, dus dat zegt wel genoeg. Een heerlijk comfortabel huis met prachtig uitzicht. Een huis om te ontspannen maar ook genoeg te doen in de omgeving, qua natuur en stadje kenmare op korte afstand. ##### Peter W.
