Holiday in The Heart of Kerry

Camas cómodas, alojamiento amplio y todo muy limpio.

Sólo hay 1 baño. Para 4 personas puede valer, pero si pueden dormir hasta 6 personas, se queda escaso. La cocina se queda escasa de vajilla. No hay lavadora

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was spotless and beautifully kept, and Cathy was so lovely, kind and helpful. She went above and beyond to help us with transport information and made everything so easy for us. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer place or host. We would definitely love to stay again next year! 😊

Appartement confortable. Très bien placé pour visiter le coin. Restaurant très à 20 mètres. Épicerie ouverte très pratique à 20 mètres aussi

Rez de chaussée mais pas trop bruyant

Spazioso, pulito. Cucina molto accessoriata. Abbiamo apprezzato i giochi per i bambini a disposizione e tutti gli accessori come vasca, seggiolone, culla comoda con materasso.

Tutto perfetto

Very clean and comfortable, central a hood rest stop prior to doing ringbof kerry. Convenience store across the road

Nothing

Sauber, viel Platz.

Straße sehr laut.

Clean and tidy

Uncomfortable bed and pillows, only found out about traffic noise one day before arrival, only found out about downstairs bathroom on arrival (no toilet upstairs by bedrooms)

A very comfortable spacious property. We were able to park car outside.

The apartment was spotless. All required and nice to have amenities were available. Fully equipped kitchen, cups, plates and pans to hand blender (and coffee!). With some issue we encountered, Cathy was fully available and helpfull, and made sure we had all we needed.

Nothing.

Sehr schön! Prima Ausstattung und moderner Look. Wir waren nur eine Nacht hier, aber fanden die Unterkunft sehr schön. Cathy und ihr Mann haben uns bei hochsommerlichen Temperaturen noch ein Kühlgerät vorbeigebracht, da es in den Schlafzimmern sehr warm war. Es kann durch den Straßenverkehr hin und wieder etwas lauter werden, aber für uns war dies kein Problem. Castelmaine war für uns ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um den Ring of Kerry und Dingle zu erkunden.

Location

NA

Die Unterkunft ist geräumig und hat alles was man braucht.

Nicht erkennbar war bei der Beschreibung, dass sie direkt an der Straße liegt, also so direkt, dass jeder Autofahrer auf den Esstisch gucken kann, was es zum Abendessen gibt. Vor der Ankunft gab es dann eine Mail vom Vermieter, mit Androhung von Maßnahmen, falls man mit mehr als der gebuchten Personenzahl die Unterkunft bezieht. Danach gab es noch eine Mail mit Verhaltensweisen: Schuhe aus vor der Tür, wenn man etwas beschmutzt, wird das in Rechnung gestellt, kein Essen oder Getränke im Obergeschoss….. man fühlt sich als Gast nicht willkommen. Das Bad ist groß, hat allerdings keine Ablageflächen. An der Tür ist eine Klingel mit Kamera angebracht. Jedesmal mal beim Kommen oder Gehen haben wir uns überwacht gefühlt. Wir würden die Unterkunft keinem unsere Freunde empfehlen.

Nice place to stay and go. Very comfortable, modern and clean.

Great location - in the middle of the village however it was quiet inside with very little street noise. Warm and cosy. Quick response from host with any queries.

This is not a complaint but it is worth noting that the bedrooms are upstairs while the bathroom is downstairs.

The breakfast place across the street worked out perfect. Egg sandwiches were made to order.

It was clean, also very nice with the Christmas tree. Value for money was brilliant!

Right in the center of Castlemaine, 4 mins by car to the nearest town of Miltown. So reasonably priced and the standard was so high. 3 double beds with cot, highchair for families. Even kindling ready for the bbq outside. Cathy and Niall could not be more helpful and accomodating

Nothing everything catered for

We were all so impressed with this beautiful little house. It was immaculate with very comfortable beds and in an excellent location - right beside a restaurant. We highly recommend. Thanks again Cathy.

All good

It was clean, well kept, cosy and easily accessible

Molto spaziosa ed accogliente

Nulla

Great location close to pub and shop. Excelent stopover foe q coupkw of motorcyclists. The pub nedt door were kind enpught ti allow us to park the bikes on their little corner of land next to place.

Hosts gave really informative information prior to our arrival. House was lovely, spacious and clean. Beds really comfortable, Great access to nearby shop to get any essentials.

Nothing.

Easy access, in the heart of Kerry. Modern and clean accommodation. 3 double beds in 2 rooms. Shop directly opposite the accommodation. Pub/restaurant, next door. Fully equipped kitchen.

Nothing. All really good.

Clean, spacious, comfortable beds, good shower, assortment of tea/coffee and cooking elements

Nothing

Tout est très bien pensé dans cette maison appartement, une salle de bain pour PMR.. Proche du ring of Kerry et pas loin du ring of dingle.. Calme et très agréable. Nous pourrions y revenir sans problème.

Perfect

This apartment is a wonderful find. It is impeccably clean, generously spacious and well located. Castlemaine is a small town with a couple local pubs and a small grocery store. It is within easy distance of Inch beach and Dingle. What sets this property apart from all other properties are the hosts. They provided detailed information about area restaurants, attractions and logistics. They were professional, prompt and pleasant. I highly recommend staying here as you explore the Wild Atlantic Way.

Comfortable house. Very detailed instructions and plenty of useful information from the host.

Die Unterkunft ist sehr geräumig und geschmackvoll eingerichtet und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Check in und Check out war völlig unkompliziert Von dort kann man zu wunderbaren Ausflügen starten . Deshalb können wir die Unterkunft empfehlen

Erst zum Einchecken wurde sehr deutlich erwähnt,das die Unterkunft an einer sehr stark befahrenen Straße liegt. In dieser Deutlichkeit hatten wir das nicht erwartet. Man kann quasi den Busfahrern und LKW Fahrern direkt vom Esstisch aus zu winken..Auch befindet sich ein öffentlicher Parkplatz direkt vorm dem Fenster ,und zwar wirklich direkt an der Wand,das macht eine Privatsphäre etwas schwieriger. Das sollte man wissen und überlegen,ob man das will Es ist laut - auch nachts .wir finden ,das war nicht so klar in der Beschreibung

This property is absolutely gorgeous and very well presented. It is fantastic value for money. It is in a great location for travelling. You do need a car. I will definitely be back for another stay. Highly recommended

Everything

La casa muy bien equipada, cómoda y limpia

Casa pulitissima, in una posizione strategica per visitare il Kerry, anche se fuori dai centri principali, e posizionata lungo la strada. C’era tutto il necessario per un soggiorno breve.

La posizione è al piano terra e primo lungo una strada di scorrimento che attraversa un piccolo abitato. Il bagno, pulito e funzionale, potrebbe essere migliorato (doccia con tenda e boiler ad attivazione manuale, ancorché istantaneo).

Very comfortable stay location is perfect central to nearly everywhere

The apartment is beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with enough crockery and cutlery for a large group. The grocery store across the road is very convenient. Castlemaine is a 20 minute drive from Killarney.

People with mobility concerns should note the bathroom is on the ground floor while both bedrooms are on the first floor.

It was clean, well maintained and was centrally located.

There were no big towels.

Me and my family of 6 people came to this lovely house for a day. House is sparkling clean, host is very kind and welcoming, she even accommodated an earlier check in and check out for us. House was with everything you can imagine, fully equipped starting from the kitchen ending with bathroom. Beds were really comfortable. In the heart of the village, nice to have a pint across the road, or eat some dinner in the local restaurant, or grab a fresh coffee from the store nearby. Best recommendations.

A little problem with parking, there's no private parking, but there's a street parking in the front of the house. When we first arrived, there were no spaces. In the hour time it was all free and we were able to park.

Very clean house, excellent location (right on the Ring of Kerry wild Atlantic drive). Convenient shop just two steps away. Would go back there in a blink

All was excellent

This is a beautiful house with all you could need and the pub/restaurant next door is a bonus with extremely friendly and welcoming staff Will most definitely return

This was a lovely clean home . I would have given it a 10 if it had a washing machine

Excellent place to stay with family

Nothing

The apartment was meticulously clean and modern. The directions were very clear. The host left a small treat for us, which was much appreciated. Close to Tralee and various other cute towns. The little market across the street was nice for last minute items. We have teens, so did not need it, but I did notice lots of little touches that would be amazing for families with small children. Safety items, as well as small cots, toys, and a baby seat. Very wheelchair accessible, particularly the bathroom. (We did not need this but I need to note it for future visitors)

The little town didn’t have much. A market and a pub. Otherwise you’d need to drive to go to a bigger town for more options. This of course isn’t the fault of the host! But just a warning that this isn’t the kind of town where you could walk to a bunch of restaurants and shops etc. The directions about checkout and rules were very clear but quite rigid. I’ve not yet stayed in a booking.com rental with such an extensive checkout list. It’s easy enough- strip the beds, wash all the dishes and put them away, etc. but just a little more than we typically experience with bookings.

Lovely, clean house. Great location, would stay again and definitely recommend.

Very clean and cosy.

Was cold during the night.

Loved the space and location, right beside of nice restaurant and pub!

Great good size apartment,very clean and comfortable. I like the location and local area. Would highly recommend a group of friends or family. Everything you need is a step away. Thanks a lot to the host.

Cozy, clean and high quality bed sheets!

None

Great location to explore the Dingle Peninsula, Ring of Kerry & Killarney! Apartment was clean and nicely stocked with all the essentials you'll need. Hostess have us great sightseeing advice too.

No negatives.

Perfect location for us and perfect accommodation for a short stay exploring the area.

Very clean and cosy

Location, lovely place

Prefer a bigger bed (king)

We all like the place. beds are comfortable. toilet is huge but the owner blamed us for a part of the toilet fell off when we were less than 4hrs in his/her place. there is a shop across the accommodation which is good as well.

stated above, very bad experience after we checked out as the owner requested payment after less than 2hrs we left which i don't have any idea what is going on. it just stated we did not followed her checkout policy. We checked in past 6 in the evening and around 10pm a few of us were relaxing in the sitting room watching tele when we heard a loud noise in the bathroom. I went inside and seen a part of the toilet (mind you it is rear part of the seat) fell off. took a photo and messaged the owner thru booking.com msg straight away as stated in the policy. She answered me back stating she's going to check it. and now she's asking for payment as per her "clearly someone stood or sat on it". mind you all 5 girls are healthcare workers and we don't stand on toilet bowl/seat for hygiene purposes and as per my photo that's very weird it is the back part of the toilet seat. Just weird it will fall out in less than 4hrs of us checking in. I have the photo below! i tried ringing her but she won't answer nor ring back. We followed all her list of checkout policy including stripping off all bed linens, putting away towels in the toilet, cleaning all utensils and putting it back to cupboards, etc.

The lodging was well laid out with all the amenities. Although it was at a busy intersection, the rooms were quiet.

The Wi-Fi was hard to find and it would have been helpful to have a checklist on checking and checkout.

Loved our stay! Home was clean and a fantastic location. Comfortable and wonderful place to relax at the end of the day. Cathy was great with the recommendations and was attentive and ensured everything was well during our stay. Restaurant next door was perfect for dinners as we had no intention of cooking, and the little shop across the street was there for us for some pastries, hot food items, snacks and refreshments. Bonus was the post office across the road so we could write up and mail our postcards home. Thank you Cathy and Niall! 💚

Loved everything.

Great to find a spacious apartment in Castlemaine. Nice village with great pub next door. Welcoming and friendly locals. A central location for exploring Kerry. Host communication was excellent. Very clean property with great facilities.

loved how the property was presented and clean. shops are across the road. local pubs. local transport on the doorstep (literally)

The accommodation is superb. Very clean, nicely decorated, and very comfortable. Nice and central and lovely restaurant next door with great food.

There is everything to like about this property.

Host was fantastic

Spotless in great condition

Great location. very clean . Will definitely recommend to my friends.

Clean, modern, great kitchen full of whatever you would need to cook on. Hosts were responsive to questions and really supportive of the trip. Lots of great info. Sheets were clean and bed were really comfortable. Parking was free and just outside and the location is actually good for travelling to Dingle or many other places. Make sure you stock up on ingredients at super value b we are you get there because the little shop over the road is expensive. Fair enough for them because it is a convenience store. Couple of pub/food options in the little village but really it’s a great place to recharge and relax after a long travel day. Then it sets you off fully energized for more of Ireland.

It’s not what we didn’t like because we knew that there was only 1 toilet and shower. This was clear from the start so no complaints just an extra toilet option would have helped during busy times.

Cathy the host was lovely, very accommodating. Small village with all you need. Beautifully kept property. Would certainly return

Nothing

We' ve stayed for 8 days in this holiday home and had the most wonderful time. The apartment is so comfortable and had everything we needed, even for our little daughter (high chair, toys, Mini bathtub, ...) Our host Cathy was always available if we had and questions and we can just thank her for the great time. :)

There was a lot of traffic on the street next to the house, that was sometimes a bit loud.

Spacious apartment, good also for a longer stay as it has everything you might need for a few days. Hostess is super nice, gave a lot of nice recommendations upon check-in. Parking is possible just behind the building in the parking lot of Griffin Pub (which has really good food, too, and is a minute's walk away only).

Message with information for check-in wasn't forwarded by the system in a timely manner, but hostess was very responsive. As the entrance is not that easy to find, you'll need instructions. As the apartment is located at the main street, it's not super quiet.

Very clean with lots of space for us to relax. Fully equipped kitchen. Bar/restaurant next door and convenience store across the street, so very convenient.

Traffic was busy directly in front of the apartment. Location a bit isolated, so would need a car to get there.

The apartment was easy to find thanks to the description and photos received from the owner. The apartment was spotlessly clean and very spacious and we had a good night's sleep in the very comfortable bed upstairs. There is a grocery shop just across the road which is convenient.

Lovely large, clean apartment-- recommended!

Very clean, very helpful

Great location in center of the town, next to a Restaurant/Pub. Bathroom is large. Bedrooms are also spacious. Living area is big enough for 6 people. Across the road is a small shop which is great.

Upstairs and stairs are covered in tapestry and the hosts demand that you wear slippers, which we didn't know in advance. Luckily we had them with us. But other than that everything else was great!

Everything was just amazing !!!! House is great , Everything there !!!! Amazing spot!!!!

Nothing ! Everything was just absolutly great!

Great location in the center of Castlemaine. The host, Cathy, was great with communication and gave us several tips to explore the area. She also welcomed us with a couple of Easter eggs and wine. :) Amazing stay, absolutely recommend!

We had a little glitch accessing the wifi. This was sorted by rebooting the router.

Only booked at lunchtime on the day we we’re arriving & didn’t get the messages through from Booking.com before we arrived - but Cathy (the owner) was ace & sorted us out over the phone 👍

Booking.com’s timely communications

Excellent place, spotless, very well equipped, comfortable , great location for exploring Killarney and the Ring of Kerry. Superb communication from hosts. Easy checkin and out. Looking forward to returning
