The cottage was a fantastic find and one I would like to revisit again. It's close enough to Killarney that you're not out of the way, but nestled into the country to make it not feel as busy. It was easy to get to and Lorraine provided excellent directions on her listing. If you were ambitious, you would probably be able to get into Killarney centre by bike no problem.
The cottage itself was charming. You can see a lot of love and hard work went into restoring the cottage into what you see today and Lorraine provides a brief history of the cottage (as well as a load of things to do around Killarney!) for you in a handy binder. It has all the modern amenities needed - fridge, hob, oven, sink, kettle, toaster, microwave, shower, toilet, etc. and there are shops close by to stock up on provisions to make food yourself. Lorraine also accommodated our toddler staying with us by providing a safety gate for the top of the staircase and a travel cot, which was very appreciated.
Things of note is that the staircase is very steep (which is typical of a spiral staircase) and the roof in the loft is low-ish. If you are a particularly tall person you might find the loft area a bit uncomfortable with having to stoop, but as it's only used for sleeping I think it would be bearable. These are not issues with the cottage, but quirks that are present due to the nature of restoring such an old building.
I would highly recommend a stay here and hope to stay again in the future!
