Maggie's cottage was really cosy and in a beautiful location. It had everything we needed. We were met in the town by the lovely Eileen who took us to the cottage, had the fire lit for us on our arrival and provided us with delicious buns, just the ticket after a long journey! Eileen was very helpful if we had any queries. The town is a 5 minute drive away and has a good selection of cafes, takeaways and restaurants, supermarkets, a fishmonger and at least one fantastic butcher. We can highly recommend hiring cycles in the town and cycling to and around Valentia island, we spent a wonderful day here, lots to see. We did a lot of driving to see as much of Kerry as possible, not a particular hardship as the scenery is amazing. Locally, Ballycarbery castle (ruin) is a short walk from the cottage and two ring forts are a little bit further, there are hills to climb and the Old Barracks is interesting. We had a wonderful holiday and would definitely go back.
