Staying with Isabelle and Gerry was a great experience. They have a beautiful home nestled in the Kerry hills and they welcomed us warmly.
I made the reservation request only a few hours before arriving but Isabelle was very quick to respond and a pleasure to deal with. She gave us great directions and when we arrived she even invited us in for a cup of tea which was much appreciated after the long drive.
The Eco Lodge itself is a lovely little self contained building with everything you could need. It has a nice kitchen, shower room (water heated from the solar panels), washing machine, wood burning stove, and last but not least, a spectacular view! We were very comfortable staying there, so much so we were a little late waking up to go hiking the following morning.
Speaking of hiking, if that's your thing, the lodge is located at the foot of the huge Mount Mangerton. A dramatic view awaits at the top of a relatively easy climb, definitely worth a trip in my opinion.
All in all, you really can't go wrong here, beautiful home, idyllic settings, lovely people. I'll be going back if I get a chance!
