Lovely cottage, great location for exploring the beautiful area. I would most definitely recommend a stay here, thank you.

L emplacement et le calme de ce cottage.
L état général qui manquait d entretien.
Property had everything we needed was in a lovey area and very quiet. Very handy having the washer and dryer.
Property had everything we needed and was very reasonably priced compared to everything else in the area. It was slightly dated / had some cobwebs etc but that didn’t bother us. My only recommendation would be to get a full body mirror :)
Le logement très bien équipé. La proximité des lieux à visiter autour de Killarney et l anneau du Kerry.
Tout était très bien.
Très mauvaise expérience dans ce logement. Nous avons été extrêmement déçus par l’état général du cottage à notre arrivée. Le logement était sale et très humide, avec une odeur désagréable, des toiles d’araignées dans plusieurs endroits et des serviettes laissées par les précédents voyageurs encore présentes. La propreté n’était clairement pas au niveau attendu pour un hébergement proposé à la location. La cuisine était également très décevante : équipement très insuffisant, absence d’ustensiles de base (comme une passoire ou un éplucheur), casseroles très abîmées avec des traces de rouille. Il était difficile de préparer correctement des repas, notamment avec des enfants. Nous avons également rencontré des problèmes pratiques importants : l’eau chaude de la cuisine ne fonctionnait plus lorsque quelqu’un prenait une douche, et des bruits permanents (notamment des bruits de gouttes) rendaient le séjour inconfortable. Au vu du prix payé, nous attendions un logement propre, entretenu et fonctionnel. Malheureusement, ce n’était pas le cas. Nous avons contacté l’hôte afin de trouver une solution, mais nous n’avons reçu aucune réponse. Expérience très décevante, nous ne recommandons pas ce logement.
There was a scheduled power outage that the owners decided to deliberately conceal. We booked the cottage so we would have the cooking facilities for the day. We woke up on the first morning to find no electric. The water pump is electric so the toilet and shower did not work. The area is remote we had no 5g and as there was no electric we had no WiFi we had to get dressed and drive to the local shop to get water and use a bathroom and contact the host. They replied at 2.30 pm stating there was an outage. But they did not know that we thought it was an unplanned short outage so we returned around 10am to find the other host who told us they had received a letter in advance and the electricity would be out until 5pm. He offered to show us the letter too. He had to leave us buckets of water so we could flush the toilet manually. He said he had hoped we would be out for the day and wouldn’t notice. We had spoke to another guest that morning who had to check out early and as they also had no facilities. The bed was also extremely uncomfortable. We had to sleep in the single beds. The mattress was an old spring mattress with protruding springs. One of the windows was also broken and did not close. I would not recommend this property.
Very peaceful and quiet place, we had a great night sleep. It is like home feeling as the property provides everything you need for your stay. We could even wash our clothes which was a nice bonus.
Everything was good.
Having a washer and dryer was wonderful. The house was very clean and had lots of extras like toiletries and kitchen supplies.
The bed in the living room. Kept getting woke up by others using the bathroom.
This was a wonderful location. It had a lot of space, with a kitchen and washer dryer. The host that was friendly and easy to work with. I would 100% recommend this stay
The location was fabulous surrounded with trees and fields so quiet and peaceful but on a 3 minute drive into the centre of killarney you would not believe that you can go from not a sound and peace into fabulous pubs and restaurants so quick and the walking and hiking trails only minutes from your doorstep also. House clean and tidy beds very comfortable also
Nous avons apprécié l’emplacement et le calme du lieu.
Nous aurions aimé être accueillis par les propriétaires. La vaisselle mise à disposition est tout juste suffisante. La baignoire ne s’écoule pas, une fenêtre ne ferme pas, de l’humidité imprègne le mur de la cuisine. Le confort et la qualité du logement sont décevants par rapport au prix facturé.
Very nice and quiet place
I like all service
higly recommend house,my family loved everthing,nice view all around the house,very quiet,very warm ,we really like it and definetly if we will go again in kilarney we choose again this house
the so called second bedroom was in the sitting room\ kitchen
great location would be ideal for a family with young children
La ubicación es buena, aunque un poco apartado del pueblo y mal señalizado, supongo que ésto lo hace ser un lugar muy tranquilo
La casa es amplia y está bien ubicada en el parque nacional, aunque la cogí basándome en la puntuación de 9.6 y no le daría más de un 7. Tuvimos dudas en encontrar la casa y llamamos por teléfono pero no nos atendieron (saltó contestador). Anuncian que tiene secadora, pero no funciona, y las preguntas que haces no las contestan rápido (aún estoy pendiente que me contesten así que no se si lo harán durante el día de hoy). Falta mantenimiento: desagües y barras de cortina de ducha oxidados (no sé si eso es normal con tanta humedad, pero le da una sensación de falta de limpieza, aunque las sábanas eran blancas y estaban muy limpias). En general la casa tenía poca iluminación eléctrica (si te duchabas de noche prácticamente lo haces a oscuras, ya que hay muy poca luz artificial y la cortina es muy opaca) y había bombillas fundidas, lo que la hacía más oscura. Está en medio del campo, por lo que había bastantes arañas, no se cómo de rápido hacen la tela, pero volvía a dar la sensación de falta de limpieza. La ducha tiene muy lento el desagüe, por lo que se hace una balsa de agua que cuesta de vaciar. La nevera también da la sensación de dejadez, ya que toda la goma está ennegrecida.
Joli petit cottage confortable et très bien équipé, bien situé et très calme.
La posizione appena fuori dall’abitato in una zona tranquilla e silenziosa
Purtroppo ho prenotato pensando di trovare una struttura più pulita (ad esempio nella vasca da bagno c’erano vari capelli di precedenti persone).L’asciugatrice non funzionava e abbiamo trovato asciugamani per 4 persone ma noi avevamo prenotato per 5 (altre asciugamani ci sono state fornite solo il giorno dopo). La struttura in generale sembra abbia poca manutenzione (gli scarichi di bagno e cucina erano molto lenti)
Die Lage war gut Das Bad war sauber.
Das Haus ist in die Jahre gekommen und offensichtlich wird nicht geputzt!!!!!!Schade, denn das Cottage hätte Potenzial und Charme. Die Küche ist nicht besonders gut ausgestattet. Es fehlt besonders an Töpfen und Schüsseln. (Es gab nur einen winzigen Topf.)
Felt like home Had everything there !
Beautiful little Cottage! had 4 friends traveling together.Would have preferred separate bedrooms. (there are 2 Bedrooms and a nice kitchen but 1bedroom also serves as the living room so no room to sit and visit. Very nice place though!!! Beautiful location!Close to everything in Killarney!!
More entertaining space.
Great location, extremely clean

Very cozy and lovely cottage
The cottage was spacious and met all our needs. The host expressed interest that all was well with us.
The peace and quiet as I was playing in a pool tournament in Gleneagles hotel and i needed some alone time
more signposts as I had no idea where Church Road was
The cottage was easy to get to with ample parking. We loved the garden and the overall space worked well for our group of 5. It was fairly quiet, but only a 10 minute drive from nearby grocery stores and restaurants. It was very cozy, although the bathroom was massive which was a plus. We utilized the kitchen and it had everything we needed to eat in. It was an excellent spot to start our drive on the Ring of Kerry.
It appears as 2 bedrooms but one is actually the living room so little privacy
Clean, cosy, easy access
Bulb blown in bathroom!
The lot lovely cottage
Quiet location with garden views.Easy parking at the back door. Found the property with the eire code provided by the host. Great place for a few days relax. Couldn’t be better.
nothing
This was a very quiet little cottage with all the conveniences of a home. You have everything near you
