I cannot recommend this place strongly enough! This was our favorite stop in Ireland, both the general location and guest house itself. The location of the cottage feels private and secluded, while still being an easy drive into Kenmare if you'd like to visit shops or restaurants. The grounds are beautiful, with lots of gardens and mountain views. Everything was very clean, and the full kitchen was excellent. It had all the essentials, plus they kindly provided milk, juice, and bread for our visit. There is a large grocery in Kenmare for anything else you may need. Rene and Emilie were always available if we had a question, but our stay still felt very private. If there is one place you should stay while traveling in Ireland, this is it!

The area is stunning, and we loved exploring the Ring of Kerry. Also, on Emilie's recommendation we visited Glengarriff to the south, and drove the Healy Pass and visited the Gleninchaquin waterfall. The Beara peninsula is equally beautiful, and much less busy!
