The cottage is a beautiful place to get away from it all and unplug while still having easy access to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle peninsula, as well as all the pubs, restaurants and stores in Killorglin about a 10 minute drive away. Paul was a super host, greeting us in person to give an overview, checking in proactively to make sure we were good, quickly responding to us, and providing local tips. I highly recommend the hike up to the viewing point nearby, but the views of the lake from the grounds near the cottage are spectacular as well. We spent four wonderful days there and wish we could have stayed longer. The cottage was exactly as described and as it looks in the pictures. It's clean, comfortable, and has all you need from a sparkling clean bathroom and bathtub, to the fireplace we used every night, to the full kitchen with all we needed to cook some simple meals. I can't wait to go back again the first chance I get!
