From our first request to Kirstin to stay in her Kenmare Cottage, we had a very good email relationship, chatting about both our holidays.

Kirstin was away when we arrived so her Friend and Collegue Julia was there to welcome us. We had a tour of the cottage and were welcomed with breakfast cereals, milk, tea and coffee. I had requested an ironing and ironing board which was there for me and a pretty peg bag for hanging washing on the out door line , these were a thoughtful touch.

The cottage was stunning, very cute, immaculately clean and beautifully presented. Everything advertised was provided. Although fore warned the internet connection could be sketchy, we had no problem, just found connection was better upstairs.

Parking was very convenient, just across the road and was much appreciated in such a busy wee village.

We loved Kenmare. A bustling village with tourists, market stalls, great souvenir shops and shopping in general and loads of cafes, pubs and restaurants to choose from. We spent a great day walking the village and surrounding areas of historic interest.

We felt very safe in the cottage with the backyard having a locked gate.
