Beautiful scenery, very well appointed and very comfortable. Lovely food welcome package.
Wunderschönes, liebevoll eingerichtetes Apartment. Alles vorhanden was man braucht, sehr großes Bad.
The space and privacy. It was very comfortable with lots of personal touches from the host.
There was a stale smell coming from the drain pipes in the shower.
L accueil , le confort, la propreté tout est au top dans ce logement il a toutes mes recommandations !!!
Apartment looks brand new and is nicely decorated. It has everything you might need (including a dishwasher and a wasing machine), kitchen is well equipped, bathroom is ver spaceous. Outside, there is more than enough room for parking a car. Self checkin and checkout was simple. The owner even left us some homemade scones as a welcome gift! The location is perfect for going around the Ring of Kerry. Kenmare town is about 5min away, where there are multiple supermarkets, restaurants, etc. We stayed in the upstairs apartment, which has a nice view out the living room window.

Spacious, clean and all provisions for cooking
Just too far out from Kenmare to walk
We liked the view, the location, the architecture, the large bathroom.
There is nothing we didn't like, I just wish there was a more comfortable armchair and an espresso machine.
Het appartement is GEWELDIG!! Exact als op de foto's en als beschreven. Aan echt alles is gedacht en is aanwezig. Ruime badkamer ook, Het appartement voelt heel conmfortabel. Vooral het uitzicht vanuit de schommelstoel op de Beara Peninsula is adembenemend. Ruime parkeermogelijkheid, weg van de openbare weg. Voor ons als motorrijders heel belangrijk dat je motor ook een goede en veilige plek heeft. Heel erg rustige omgeving. Welkom met 2 soorten jam en melk in de koelkast. Zelfgebakken brood + boter. Was heerlijk! Jammer dat we de host Geraldine daar niet persoonlijk voor konden bedanken want die hebben we niet gezien. Perfecte communicatie vooraf per email.
Ik kan werkelijk niets bedenken dat tegenviel. Let op: het is ruim 3 km naar het stadje Kenmare. Lopen langs de Nweg is geen goed idee (geen voetpaden). Wij hebben een taxi genomen. Die kostte E. 15,00 enkele reis.
What a stunning apartment that was well equipped, tastefully decorated and an ideal location just outside of Kenmare. Highly recommend.
Nothing, it was all good
The apartment is so thoughtfully equipped, absolutely clean, we felt at home immediately. Geraldine was very helpful, quickly responding and greeted us with home made scones and lemon cake. It is a great place to discover the area, we would have stayed longer than three nights if it would have been free.
No breakfast provided.
The provision of a microwave would be a bonus when self-catering.
Good location, comfortable bed
Cramped..photos showed more space than was the case
Het gevoel van ruimte en licht
We vonden het spijtig dat we de eigenaars gastheer of gastvrouw niet persoonlijk konden ontmoeten …
The barn had everything you could need. Comfortable bed and lovely views out onto the hills. Loved the wood burner too!
Nothing!
Amazing place to stay. Me and my partner stayed for 3 nights and were greeted with fresh scones and orange juice, such a nice touch. Absolutely spotless and even smelled lovely and clean. Will definitely be staying again!☺️
The interior of this barn was awesome. Both my husband and I worked in architecture and we LOVED checking out all the little details of the remodel. It was really cool. The host were so thoughtful. There were home made cakes left for us upon arrival. We're gluten free so we couldn't eat them but they were a really nice gesture. We enjoyed looking out the window at the near by cows and all 7 of the cute doggies who worked the land. Super cute.
The hair that was all over the bathroom floor. Note to the host: If you have long hair wrap it up while cleaning cause it getting everywhere.
Lovely space, comfortable and well equiped
Nothing
The stove : it was set up and there was some logs available. There were some basic products left in the fridge for us (milk, butter, jam etc ) Much appreciated. The apartment was very clean throughout and the bed was very comfortable.
The chemical air freshener, which was extremely pungent and not necessary. It had to be left outdoors.
The woodburning stove under the TV was extremely cozy for a stormy November evening. The scenery, the sheep and the cows, it's a beautiful place. We didn't see the hosts while we stayed but they left milk, cakes and everything we needed in the apartment. The decor is lovely, the facilities are great, the bed is comfy and the view is beautiful. It's about 3 minutes drive from Kenmare town. No negatives to speak of, great place.
Quiet, lovely outlook, well equipped, nicely furnished, comfortable. Washing machine and washing powder, wonderful, line to dry washing. Warm and cosy. Easy parking.
Nothing.
The property was incredibly comfortable and clean. Excellent value for money in a gorgeous location.

Appartamento ristrutturato in modo perfetto. Ottimo per chi vuole fare il ring of kerry
Felt homely, loved the feeling the moment we walked in. Loved how there was milk, orange juice, butter and home made loaf for us on our arrival. Loved the little fire 🔥 and the wood supplied. The owners have obviously travelled and were thoughtful to a travelers needs, clothes horse, washing powder etc. there is only one thing that I could suggest is a small microwave for when we felt like enjoying a quite night in with a pre made meal and a bottle of wine. Still give it five 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 oh love the view from the couch while sipping on my wine.
Nothing.
Fabulous fittings& appliances , styled beautifully, excellent views, quiet location , scones left on arrival.
Perhaps a bigger bed
Property with character in great location with everything you need
Very well equipped and beautifully presented. Easy to explore the Ring of Kerry from this location. The host left freshly baked scones, milk, orange juice , jam and marmalade, butter, etc which were very much appreciated.
We really liked this property and couldn’t fault it.
excellent accommodation just outside Kenmare - perfect location for my partner taking part in the Lost Sheep half Iron Man this weekend. comfortable, clean and cosy ✨️ Fresh scones, milk, butter jam and fresh orange juice was very welcome after 5 hours on the road! Everything was perfect 👌 As a fellow host I was super impressed and even came away with a few ideas for my own properties. Thank you Geraldine 😊 we hope to return and will most definitely recommend your property to others 😊

Magníficas instalaciones. Todo muy limpio. Muy acogedor, amplio y cómodo. Cuidado con esmero hasta el último detalle siempre pensando en el huésped. Los anfitriones a los que no conocimos, nos dejaron un desayuno de cortesía para el primer día. Fácil de encontrar siguiéndo las indicaciones. Aparcamiento en la puerta del apartamento. Excelente relación calidad- precio. El mejor alojamiento que hemos disfrutado en mucho tiempo.
La localización a 3 Km de Kenmare. Un poco aislado.
Alles sehr schön. Direkt am Ring of Kerry, deshalb bis 22 Uhr viel Verkehr. Aber das war erträglich. Toll eingerichtet und bequem. Sehr hell und freundlich. Viele Tiere zum beobachten. Gute Lage
Nicht direkt die Unterkunft: Kenmare als nächster Ort ist komplett überlaufen.
Perfect location to visit the ring of Kerry and enjoy Kenmare! The renovated barn was spotless. We really enjoyed our stay. It was quiet and the view was really nice.
A microwave would have been great
This is a superb barn conversion done in 2023. Someone has given a lot of thought not o ly about the layout and finish bilut also the decor. The apartment is just lovely, great kitchen, all the appliances you could ask for (except microwave). The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is quite luxurious. Secure parking provided and the location is ideal for exploring both the Ring of Kerry but also Kenmare. We could find no fault with the apartment, and given how expensive Ireland is, this property is exceptional value for money. We will be back for sure.
Absolutely nothing - except we wished we had stayed longer!
Very clean, a new look and feel to it, very comfortable and cosy.
Great apartment, a little out of kenmare but taxi was reasonable. Beautifully decorated with everything you need for a short stay. Some lovely scones with jam on arrival which were delicious. Amazing view from the lounge to relax in, lovely shower and very spacious bathroom.
WiFi was not very good when another couple arrived downstairs. TV picture kept freezing but didn’t affect our stay or stop us returning. Didn’t see the owner at all but communication was great though booking.com.
the host provided lots of extras - freshly made bread and scones, orange juice, milk, butter etc. All the cooking utensils you need were provided also
nothing
The location was perfect for what we wanted to do and see
A sign saying where the property was from the road
It was lovely, stunning views, excellent use of space, and really well equipped. We wished we had booked to stay longer.
We couldn't find anything to dislike.
This is a great property,, super clean all around and designed to make you feel cozy and comfortable. Bed very very comfy, all amenities you can need with high attention to detail leaving extra stuff such as milk, coffee or tea( but also not so common ones and super appreciated like salt, oil, napkins and even a welcome cake!!). The views and setting of the apartment is great for chilling and only 4 min drive from Kenmare bars and restaurants. This is an amazing place to stay when visiting the area
Only additional touch (not a negative) would be to have some champu/gel dispensers available to make the stay even smoother. Instructions to arrive are ok but a small sign at the property entry would help a bit for the initial arrival.
Location 5 minutes drive from town of Kenmare. Clean, comfortable and quite with nice view of the country side. We made good use of the washing machine to catch up on laundry. Kitchen facilities if you wish to do your own cooking (we did our breakfast only). Great jump off point for ring of Kerry
Everything was great
The stunning view, central location for Ring of Kerry, modern layout, very comfortable. The hosts thoughtfully left some home made bread, juice, milk , butter and jam for breakfast and also set up the fireplace.
It is close to a main road so there is potential traffic noise but it didn't worry us
Clean, modern, comfortable, great views, Netflix available, perfect place to relax after a long day out
Nothing,
We were a couple with a rental car. For us the location and apartment was excellent. Short drive to Aldi and Lidl, into town for restaurants, beautiful and quiet location. It was an excellent base for us to do our driving trips to sight see around that region in Ireland - ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, Cliffs of Moher etc. The apartment was exactly as described, and we had quick and easy access to supermarkets to get small items for the stay. We appreciated the beverages and snack left as a welcome.
There was nothing we didn't like. We misunderstood the advert and assumed shower gel and shampoo would be among the complimentary toiletries - the host quickly clarified, in time for us to go to the supermarket and get what we needed.
Wonderful place - very comfortable and with great style. We loved the view from the living space- combined with the fireplace it made even rainy days enjoyable! Thanks so much for- would love to come back!
Just as a tiny tip - a few more spits to hang towels in the bathroom would make it even better
Really nice, new, large apartment. Beautifully decorated, windows had spectacular views. The kitchen was fully equipped, the shower in the bathroom was fabulous. We would definitely stay here again.
Please put a sign near the road. We’re International travelers and had a little difficulty finding it. The apartment made up for it!
The decor was light, spacious and contemporary. The brownies left for us were delicious. Loved the added touch of having a potbelly fireplace. The shower was excellent. The bed was firm but comfortable. The view from the apartment was perfect, even with the next door cow mooing while the vet checked her out. Location was 3 km from Kenmare town centre with lots of options for eating out. Dinner at No 35 Kenmare was excellent.
No toiletries, or tissue box provided. The odd bugs, but it's next to a farm after all.
Lovely place to stay in the country but close to Kenmare. Very clean and modern with warm touches. Loved the wood burning stove fireplace with the provided wood and matches. The fruit loaf welcome gift was a nice touch as well. Apartment 2 is upstairs with a wonderful view out of the picture windows.
A couple of things for even better improvement. There wasn't a microwave in the room. We struggled with power outlets as our plug that worked all over the rest of Ireland would not plug into the outlets no matter how hard we tried.
Selfcatering Great location

This was an amazing property. Didn't want to leave. Welcome tea scones were a hit - thank you! Everything was perfect. You have a property to be proud of and we hope it is a success for you.

Beautiful views. Beautiful apartment. Really well equipped. Amazing bathroom.
We would highly recommend this apartment. It has everything you need, plus more. There's even a stove that is ready to be lit with fuel available. The kitchen is fully equipped with a great oven, dishwasher, washing machine, etc. The heating is easy to work. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. Great views and spotlessly clean. Fantastic attention to detail. Will definitely visit again.
Cannot fault it.
It was home away from home. Beautifully presented. Immaculate. Cosy, relaxing and perfect place to take a break. The extra touches of baked bread and supplies to get you started was awesome. The view is amazing, sitting with a cup of tea in the rocking chair admiring the mountains never got boring. Thank you
Nothing 10/10
Lovely location with mountain views, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Very responsive and helpful host.
Excellent apartment, beautifully furnished and equipped with stunning views from window over the mountains
Nothing
Lovely apartment only 3ks from Kenmare. The rural views are so peaceful. The apartment was beautifully designed with stylish decor. We loved our stay.
The apartment was bright, clean, spacious, quiet and contained everything to make it a brilliant weekend. Our host left some food to start off our break which was very much appreciated.
We would have liked some extra towels.
Very clean and tastefully decorated space. All amenities needed were there and working. We loved the location and the view. We will gladly book this again when we are back in Ireland.
Gorgeous cottage with stunning views and great facilities. We stayed here for a wedding in nearby Dromquinna which was 1 minute away and would definitely come back for a longer break to explore the area more. Geraldine was very helpful and we loved the fresh scones when we arrived late in the evening to check in
Spacious well equipped apartment with easy parking. Good shower. Beautiful views, and we loved the peace and quiet.
Fabulous barn conversion, well placed for access to all the western peninsulas. Great to watch the lamb's and hares in the fields.
Nothing
Charming converted barn on working farm. Views to die for, you won't stop staring out the window: sheep grazing, green pastures, blue lake, grey mountains and lots of sky. Cleverly designed recently constructed unit in post-card worthy stone building. Tastefully designed. Essentially a mini-home. Very short drive (2km) into charming town of Kenmare. Simple and anonymous checkin/checkout.
Nice quiet place, fully equipped kitchen. Great Christmas atmosphere. Kind and helpfull hostes. Highly recommended
