Guests that stayed at this property said
The property consistently receives high marks for cleanliness, with multiple reviews mentioning it being clean and well-maintained. This suggests a high standard of cleanliness throughout.
The location is frequently described as beautiful and great, with proximity to Kenmare and scenic views. However, some guests noted it can be challenging to find, slightly impacting the score.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of a cosy atmosphere and comfy beds. A few minor comfort-related issues, such as the size of a twin bed and water pressure, are noted but do not significantly affect the overall comfort.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and other amenities. Points were deducted for mentioned issues with appliances like the hoover and TV, and the lack of a DVD/CD player and WiFi.
Guests appreciated the thoughtful touches such as cooking spices and welcome gifts like wine and cookies. However, it is politely noted that such gifts are gestures of goodwill and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

Beautiful setting and very quiet. A short walk to the golf club where you can get a lovely meal in a stunning setting. There were no instructions for the heating or to use the stove even though the welcome book said there were I would definitely book this property again

The decor is delightful and carefully selected. The library has many interesting books as well! We will be back.

You have a choice of a tarmac road that looks like it goes to the cottage or a dirt track that appears to go to a maintenance yard. I made the wrong choice! A small sign would be very useful
