Shamrock cottage occupies a wonderful location with tremendous views over the Dingle peninsula and is an ideal place from which to explore Kerry by car.
However the cottage itself is in need of significant modernization in all areas especially the kitchen, bathrooms and all appliances. If you are looking for homely, no frills accommodation then this property might be for you.
It was also disappointing that there are several unadvertised hidden charges which you are only advised of once your booking is confirmed such as bed linen, towels, heating, hot water and electricity. These can quickly add up since they are charged at three times the current unit charging by suppliers.
All instructions at the property are only provided in German which is of little assistance unless you speak German. This being said the local caretaker is wonderful and extremely helpful.
Overall Shamrock cottage may appeal to some one wanting a homely basic accommodation but if you are looking for up to date facilities at a reasonable price then this might not be the property for you.
