May 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous cottage and quiet and stunning location What an amazingly beautiful place, we all thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The single track road was interesting at first but after a couple of runs up and down, it became second nature. The location has stunning views and is quiet but not that remote only 3 km from Kenmare.We used the garden room most of the time, when in and enjoyed watching the wildlife in the garden. Kenmare is a lovely town with all the amenities needed and the cottage is ideally located for all of the tourist sites in the region. We loved it!!! ##### Diane W. Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### David K. Sep 19, 2023 Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious comfortable home with beautiful views Overall a comfortable stay with plenty of space. We enjoyed the kitchen, dining and living spaces. Nice to have a wood fireplace to take the chill out. Property has easy parking and large yard with outdoor space. Property is about 2 miles from downtown Kenmare, road to property very narrow. The property was not very clean; dirty microwave, toilet, lots of cobwebs, as well as food left in freezer/cupboards, missing press for coffee maker and missing lint trap in dryer (making everything very linty and eating any socks, small garments). ##### David K.

Oct 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wo sich Hirsche und Hasen auf der Strasse tummeln Wir hatten wunderschöne Tage in diesem gemütlichen sehr schönen Ferienhaus. Die Zufahrt ist sehr Romantisch. Es gab keinen Tag, an dem wir nicht Rehe oder Hasen auf der Strasse hatten. Die Lage ist traumhaft für Ruhesuchende und ein toller Ausgangspunkt für Tagesausflüge. Alles was man braucht ist im Haus vorhanden. Es ist sauber, sehr gemütlich, und für das erste Kaminfeuer ist alles vorbereitet. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind viele vorhanden. Vom Biomarkt bis zum Discounter ist alles gut erreichbar und auch nach einem Tagesausflug oder Ausflug ist Einkaufen kein Problem. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen bestimmt wieder. ##### Ulrich A. Stayed 13 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tobias T.
