I highly recommend staying at Kiloe Farmhouse. This is a beautifully renovated old Irish farmhouse with all the modern essentials like dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, drier, hot water etc. It is spotlessly clean and nicely decorated. The views are amazing and the renovations have really captured this with the stunning glass windows overlooking the surrounding countryside. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms modern. The house itself is so peaceful and surrounded by nature yet it is ideally located to access local attractions and amenities.
Michael was a superb host, pleasant and helpful at all times. He has great local knowledge and some very interesting nuggets of local history. Michael told us about beautiful Ballinskelligs beach nearby which we loved, a safe sandy beach steeped in history with good parking. We also enjoyed trips to Portmagee, Valentia, the Skelligs, (by boat), Waterville and Derrynane, all a short drive from the farmhouse. Nearby Caherciveen has shops, pharmacy, restaurants and take aways.
This is a stunning house, so full of character yet modern and comfortable. It feels secluded and private but is a central location to so much.
My family loved this house and hope to return someday in the future..
