Reviews

Lovely cottage. Home from home. Views are amazing. Hosts are lovely. Did not want to go home! Thank you.

Mrs W,

Beautiful peaceful location, with friendly helpful hosts. Beds were comfortable and kitchen very well equipped.

Mrs F,

Stunning location, roomy, well equipped cottage and friendly but unobtrusive hosts. Plenty of outside space and thoughtfully placed garden furniture. We enjoyed the incredible peace and serenity of our surroundings. It was lovely to see cows sheep and rabbits in the pastoral setting. A perfect base from which to explore Kerry and Dingle.

Mrs S,

We loved our stay in Oulagh West cottage. The house is very comfortable and has everything you need even things to bake which I loved it! The views are amazing and you can't get enough looking outside the window. Jeremy and family are lovely hosts and we will certainly come back again

Mr O,

The setting and view from the cottage is nothing short of magnificent. Although the drive to the cottage might be somewhat daunting to those uninitiated to Irish roadways, the property itself makes it well worth it. After a few trips to and from the cottage the drive isn't as challenging as it initially appears. The property is so private and quiet and relaxing. Even though it is seemingly remote it has cable television and WiFi and is actually centrally located to Killarney, Killorglin and Cahersiveen. The owners live next door and are very friendly and kind but not at all obtrusive. All in all it was a wonderful and fulfilling experience and I recommend it highly.

Mr I,
