Very lovely place! We were not expecting such nice accommodations for the inexpensive cost. It was very clean and smelled lovely. The honey touches made it very cozy and the road was very quiet. An excellent place to stop for the night and a perfect distance for morning boat tours at Port Magee. Highly recommend!

Stayed here one night in preparation for the boat trip to Skellig Michael which was sadly cancelled the next day due to rough seas and high winds. However, this was a lovely little place and we had a very pleasant stay. We stayed in the room with the attached bathroom and there was a great setup outside for coffee etc. which was much appreciated. Thank you!

Great property and area. However when booking on Expedia it says 24km to Dingle which was misleading. There is no ferry to Dingle and it's 114km by car.

House is on a safe street with lots of trees and by the sea. However the walls are very thin, I could hear other occupants of the house talking late into the night (past midnight) and was unable to fall asleep. I advise bringing ear plugs.

Not a bad place for the price, we were surprised that the bathroom was shared between 3 bedrooms though. Each room should have a mirror and it's own hair dryer so someone can finish getting ready in the room and open the bathroom for someone else. Also, would recommend every room have their own floor mat and hand towel, I'd rather not share with strangers. Wifi also didn't work while we were there so no tv either since it was streaming services only.

Not What I Expected

I was quite disappointed with my stay. The house reeked of artificial air freshener. I still have a headache. It was very 80's. The WiFi was not working during my stay. I notified manager of the WiFi problem when I arrived. He said there was a problem in the area though the message on smart tv appeared that there is no WiFi service. The listing made me believe I would have a bathroom in my room. It was a shared down the hallway. There was minimal coffee/tea supplies. There was a carafe of water in the room that smelled of mold and the label was never removed. I wouldn't risk drinking it. There were no accessible power outlets. The only one reachable was one plug for the lamp. The dresser was missing some handles. The bed was very uncomfortable. I got no sleep. The water pressure in the shower was minimal. There was no list of nearby services. It was one of the worst places I've ever stayed in Ireland. I wouldn't recommend. Most of the places in the town are shut down. Not transparent with what to expect. The quiet was one redeeming quality.
