Outstanding scenery abounds in this tranquil place. A cosy pub beckons you for good food and pint down the road. The beach close by was beautiful and unspoilt and kissed by the wild Atlantic way. Our little dog Bella was so happy and contented. It is certainly worth travelling beyond but not too far. We travelled to the Kerry cliffs for spectacular views. John our host was a gentleman and very helpful and friendly. The cottage itself had all the necessary conveniences although a little old fashioned but still cosy. Certainly would visit again.

Furniture dated, sofa bed didn't work, would have liked some different tv stations, electric shower didn't work without turning on the heating.
