This beautiful home is exactly as advertised, and offers a peaceful respite near the ocean. Can't say enough about what a pleasant little sea-side village Kells Bay is. We didn't jump in the Bay for a swim--but it and the pier are set-up really well for swimming and bathing in the bay. Also, make some time in your schedule to poke around in Pat's Craft Shop, and the gas station at the top of the hill--both had fair prices on souvenirs and sundries and very friendly staff.

We had excellent meals at The Old Glenbeigh Hotel (Glenbeigh--right off the main road), and at the Smugglers Inn (near Waterville). For your planning purposes, Kenmare is a 90 min drive from Ita/Ben's home, but the views driving that way are said to be among the best in Ireland--really spectacular.

Ita and Ben are excellent hosts, and everything was in order with the home, except for the boiler which was having a bit of trouble during our visit; although it didn't really bother us because the water is heated at each shower and the weather was relatively warm with no need for radiators.

One of most pleasant Airbnb stays, and hope to return someday. Thank you Ita and Ben...
