Mike's house was awesome!!! The pictures don't do it justice. The home was very clean and everything seemed to be of the highest quality (even the cookware). The home was about 5 min (max) off the Ring of Kerry. The views from the property were amazing. We have four children and it was perfect for us. They enjoyed exploring on the property. Three of the four bedrooms had their own bathroom with shower. The fireplace in the living room was great for when we got the kids to bed and had a few glasses of wine planning out our next day's adventures. The house had the remote feel without actually being super remote. The local village of Cahersiveen was about 15-20 minutes drive and had everything we needed. Most nights we cooked dinner and ate around the large dining room table.
Mike was super responsive both in the booking process and throughout our stay. Catherine (caretaker) met us at the house and gave us the rundown on heating, electricity, fireplace, etc. She was really nice as well, our kids really liked her.
I could write for days about this stay but I'll wrap it up with this...we were looking for a coastal home on or near the ring of Kerry and honestly we could not have found a better house or host.
Thanks for everything Mike!
