The cottage is really lovely, beautifully situated and with a great view. It was only after we had visited the Muckross historical farms that we realized exactly HOW traditional it is. Even so we appreciated modern amenities such as the dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, the TV, DVD and Wifi, all of which worked fine.
The cottage is also a great starting point for tours of the Iveragh and Dingle peninsulas. The mountain tour through the Bealach Beama - specially recommended by our hosts - is also not to be missed. Our kids loved the many ponies and the little brook running by the house. We didn't meet Ritchie, but his brother was there to show us around and his parents were in reach and extremely helpful when we needed local information.
We would definitely come back!
