A lovely cottage in a superb location, with wonderful views across the estuary to the mountains of Kerry. The kitchen was very well stocked with equipment for whatever cooking you might want to do and we loved sitting at the kitchen table taking in the view. Owners very helpful and had left some much appreciated general provisions for our arrival.Read more Definitely recommend if you like a rural location and want a base from which to explore the Beara peninsula.
