Firstly I would like to say that when we arrived at Atlantic View we were very happy with the condition of the property, the beds were all made and the overall condition was very good. I took my wife & family there for 1 week, the property itself is approx. 1minute walk from its own beach which is also very clean, at low tide you are able to walk to Portmagee along the beach, you can of course walk along the road which take approx 1/2 hour, I would advise hi viz vests at night as there are no street lights and it can be very dark. Portmagee itself is a small fishing village with a couple of pubs, you are made to feel welcome in both and they both serve some very nice meals ranging from 5-25 euro's. Guinness is 4 euro & coke is 2.5 euro. There are plenty of walks you can do as well as some great drive around The Ring of Kerry. My advice would be to do your main shop at Waterville as the small shop in Portmagee only has the essentials.
I would highly recommend staying at Linda's property and would definitely consider a return trip.
