Even though we used google maps, and instructions from the owner, we were lost in trying to locate the cottage but a kind neighbor assisted us. (Addresses are not posted on houses or roads in Ireland which is different from America) There was plenty of room for the 4 of us staying, and each had space to move about. It was nice to have a working fireplace to sit next to as well. The rooms are spacious but the beds are firm. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer since we had been traveling around previously. We would stay here again. ##### Gary K. Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### sharon t. May 30, 2019 #### Lovely property We definitely felt that we were on holiday in this luxury home. The grounds were lovely to enjoy with good weather. The house was immaculate. Unfortunately a negative was lack of response from the owner when we had problems with internet connection. Even the manager had made a phone call on our behalf. This created an issue for us as we had an unintended business issue arise which we could not address. ##### sharon t.

The owners have thought of everything. The owner is very helpful and very responsive to all questions and information. He quickly responded to our questions. The cottage is located near to Kenmare - a lovely base for visiting the Ring of Kerry and Beara Peninsula (we thought the BEara was even nicer than the Ring of Kerry!)... and for hiking in Killarny Ntl. Park. This is a walker and hiking paradise! We were very, very sorry to leave this bit of paradise and would highly recommend the cottage most highly. Our group of middle-age siblings and spouses had a terrific stay! ##### Gail (and Jim) W.

This was such a beautiful home in a great setting. It was well-equipped with everything we needed whether for cooking, cleaning, relaxing, or sleeping. Having a washer and dryer was such a help as we were there for one week. The kitchen had everything one needed as well as the entire home. I cannot say enough about this home as it was so PERFECT!! The owner was so helpful and gave us great suggestions for places to eat as well as information about the area. We were a group of 5 women: 3 from the US and 2 from Denmark and it was such a relaxing place to start and end our days while there. It was so clean, comfortable, and felt right at home here. I know we all loved it here and I would recommend it highly to friends and family. And I hope to return one day! ##### Sandra F.

May 10, 2013 #### Great place for families My family and I truly enjoyed our stay at Cleady River cottage. We were pleasantly surprised by the beautiful new family room with the cozy fireplace and huge windows. (It wasn't in the photos when I booked it) There was plenty of room for all of us to cook, eat and play together but enough room where we could have some quiet time apart. We loved the rural setting with the rushing river in the back and the surrounding farms. A great place for after dinner walks! My granddaughter particularly liked "talking" to the sheep and roasting marshmallows in the backyard fireplace. The location was very convenient to Kenmare, where we could pick up scones for breakfast, go shopping, golfing, or listen to traditional Irish music in the pubs. I would highly recommend this property to friends and family and would love to return. ##### Joan M.

Apr 5, 2012 #### Perfect stone cottage home in Kenmare This is a wonderful new cottage home with everything you need. It has an especially nice kitchen (fully stocked) and dining area, and a warm living room. The bedrooms both upstairs and downstairs are comfortable. We made Kenmare our home base, with day trips to the Ring of Kerry, Killarney National Park, Gap of Dunloe and more. The home is exactly as pictured in the photos, but maybe even nicer. It is quiet and peaceful, and one of the few in this area that is completely stone outside. The town of Kenmare is less than a five minute drive, but one can walk or run to town using the back roads. Be sure to check out the Kenmare market with the most lovely fresh food, and the Kenmare golf course down the road. Wonderful food is to be had in Kenmare's restaurants, which are way above pub food fare. The fish and chips place in town was the best breaded cod I've had (fresh from the Atlantic). We truly enjoyed our stay and thank the owners for sharing it with us. ##### Caroline T. ### 6/10 Okay #### Kim J. Sep 23, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Beautiful property The property and house were beautiful. It would have been extremely helpful to have an accessible property manager. We arrived at sunset and the house was very cold. It took quite a bit of effort to get the heat going in the house. The internet did not work and we did contact the owner. There were issues with plumbing, etc that should be addressed. I don't think there is a hands on property manager. No soap in showers, bathrooms which we found odd. The property and house are beautiful but some things were greatly lacking ##### Kim J. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Alice M. Jul 1, 2018 #### Beautiful location The property is beautiful has a couple of little issues. There is a problem with the hot water it gets scolding hot and you can’t adjust. Was coming out hot in cold water taps everywhere except kitchen. Made showering an experience. The kitchen was fully equipped but the cabinets where very unorganized and the oven definitely needed cleaning. The bedding was very comfortable except the top covering was heavy and hot and there wasn’t any top sheets. Towels plentiful but needs the cupboard sorted out. Difficult to locate with google would advise a sign at top of driveway naming cottage. The fireplaces where great and layout works very well. Beautiful piece of property with lots of privacy to enjoy the yard in nice weather. ##### Alice M.
