Four seasons in a week!

We had a wonderful stay here. Being located on the Ring of Kerry means that there's always something to do and see. You need a car to get around but everything you could possibly desire in a property is provided. Our host went out of her way to help and you will not be disappointed.

Cosy house with a spectacular view

My wife and I spent a week in this lovely house whilst visiting our daughter studying nearby. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. The house is equipped with everything you need: a good kitchen with dining room, three bedrooms with two en suites and an additional bathroom, central heating, a large living room, satellite TV and ample parking space. We very much enjoyed the quiet surroundings and spectacular views. An ideal house for exploring Kerry, not far off Kerry Airport. We would like to stay again at this wonderful place.

Ancestral homage

Our forebears emigrated from this part of Co. Kerry, which is why we chose to visit. Bridget and Dan were wonderful “hosts.” The home is clean, well-appointed and central to everything we wanted to do in the area. Highly recommend this property!

Perfection

Bridget was an amazing host, going above and beyond to be helpful in providing a beautiful vacation home. She is very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. The accommodations were immaculate, comfortable, well equipped, scenic, and in close proximity to all “The Ring of Kerry” has to offer. I would highly recommend this property to any family or small group who are looking for a spacious retreat with all the comforts of home. Thank you Bridgette for a wonderful stay!

The best place to stay in Kerry. Best host.

Bridget, our host, made our Kerry holiday spectacular. The house is wonderful and well situated in the center of all that County Kerry has to offer. We came for my American mum's 80th birthday and Bridget even delivered a birthday cake as a surprise. Everything exceeded our expectations. Out of 10 stars, I rate this venue as an 11!

Perfect location on The Ring of Kerry

We had a great stay at this house, perfectly located for exploring the Ring of Kerry. Bridget was terrific, she met us at the house upon arrival and has a wealth of information about the area. The house was very clean and well equipped. There is a washer and dryer available onsite, a welcome amenity as we had been traveling around Ireland for several days and needed to wash a few things. There are two very good grocery stores just a few minutes away, as well as bakeries, coffee shops etc. Thank you Bridget for a great week in Glenbeigh!

excellent base for touring Kerry

Welcomed warmly by the owner we found a spotless place with flowers on the table, milk in the fridge, teabags ready and a selection of cookies to make us feel at home at once. The house is spacious, excellently maintained and equipped with everything you need. You will not miss anything. If you want to explore the Ring of Kerry or travel around the Dingle Peninsula you will find the place an ideal base, quietly situated off the N 70 but still with easy access to all the places of interest in the surrounding area. The owner is exceptionally helpful, more than happy to give advice but in no way intrusive at all. We can strongly recommend the accomodation to both couples seeking a private holiday retreat and families with children looking for a variety of outdoor activities. The stunning Rossbeigh beach is only a 5 minute drive away and worth an extended stroll in any weather.
