Fantastic stay at Purple Mountain Holiday Home. So much to do in the local area and a wonderfully clean and equipped house to come back to. We stay as an extended family of seven and had ample space! It is definitely one of the best stocked kitchens we had seen in a holiday rental as well. Would definitely recommend in future. Thank you for having us.

Beautiful holiday letting

Beautiful home in a perfect location for exploring the ring of Kerry. The house is comfortable & so well equipped, a home from home. John is a gentleman & a lovely host. I would highly recommend a stay in Purple Mountain. Only improvement I would make would be towel hooks or a rail in the upstairs bathroom.

3rd year staying

We absolutely love purple mountain holiday home it’s a great location for us, very clean everything provided in the price so no surprises, John the home owner is fantastic just at the end of the phone should you ever need him not that we do. The house if fully equipped with everything you need should you want to cook. Not that we did much as Killarney town was just a short 10 min drive or taxi in with everything you need from breakfast to dinner or just coffee or live music and drinks. Maybe a coat rack in the hall but a very minor detail.

Such a lovely week

Great house, well maintained. Lovely welcome with some bread and other things. What I liked as well was that the cupboard was full of staples such as flour, olive oil and herbs for cooking, saved us from buying it all. All in all a really lovely week! Nothing

A very modern house in a great location.

Great location, close to Killarney town, The property was in excellent condition, well decorated & with a nice array of modern appliances. The under floor heating was a plus on the chilly evenings. Also, the gift basket of wine and chocolate was most, welcome, along with the essential grocerie of milk & bread. All Good.

Absolutely fantastic family time in a great house

We couldn’t fault the accommodation at all plenty of room for 6 adults a 2 &1/2 year old and a dog. The garden was a great space. There was plenty to do on your door step driving is a must although buses are very reliable. John was a fantastic host not that we needed to bother him but always knew he was on the end of the phone. We will definitely be booking again. The house has been beautifully renovated and everything you need is there.

A wonderful stay!

We loved our stay in this cozy and modern house! It is exceptionally well-equipped with all the amenities necessary for a comfortable and hassle-free stay, including a fantastic kitchen and a convenient laundry room. It was clean, spacious, and peaceful. The Wi-Fi was fast and great for work obligations. The location is great for day trips all around Kerry, Killarney NP, and the Dingle Peninsula, with the Gap of Dunloe being a 10-minute drive away...just really a perfect location. The host, John, was responsive, kind, professional, and friendly. The booking with Trident was fast and easy. I highly recommend this house!

Enjoyable two week visit to Killarney.

Great house/home, facilities and service were excellent. Minor problems were dealt with immediately. Superb access to local walks and tourist areas. Minor quibbles only. I would have liked there to be a secure area outside for our dog, for occasional use. A coat rack or a set of coat hooks would have been useful in the hall.

Fantastic modern holiday

Spotless, modern A rated holiday home. Fantastic location just outside Killarney. Only if I am being uber pedantic...appliance filters should be part of the owners maintenance regimes. For example, Hoover's, dryers and dish washers. The dryer in the house wasn't really working, I took out the filter and removed a huge amount of fluff all working fine now. This is the same for most holiday homes I have stayed in and I get it turn around times between guests are short. But just thought I'd mention it as it would prolong the lifetime of such appliances for the owners. Otherwise there was nothing to improve on it was a fantastic stay.

A beautiful home

The house was modernly furnished and well-equipped especially the kitchen. There was a large-sized outdoor area where the kids had ample space to run around and our little one got to practice her gymnastics on the lawn! We often saw sheep grazing in the field behind the back yard, which added to the tranquility of the place. The location couldn't have been better. It was a quiet area yet very close to amenities and Kilarney National Park. Clear instructions were given not only prior to check in but also around the house e.g on how to operate appliances and waste separation. A file was also available with salient information about the area like places of interest in Kerry and recommended restaurants. The house was very family friendly with a few board games available. John, our host was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout. There really isn't anything we could criticise about the place. If we had to suggest anything, perhaps having a coat hanger as you enter would have been practical.

Urlaub im Februar - Perfekte Unterkunft

Ein wunderbares und sauberes Haus, das keine Wünsche offen lässt. Sehr gepflegt und bestens ausgestattet. Bushaltestellen in beide Richtungen sind in unmittelbarer Nähe. Die N72 führt direkt an der Haustür vorbei. 15 Minuten Busfahrt bis Killarney Busstation oder Killorglin. In Killorglin befindet sich die Bushaltestelle direkt am ALDI. Wir können dieses Haus sehr empfehlen. Netter Kontakt zu John. Wie von anderen bereits angesprochen, wäre eine Garderobe nett und ein paar Haken für die Handtücher im Bad auch. Wenn Sie aus Deutschland anreisen, dann denken Sie bitte an einen Adapter. Wir können dieses Haus wirklich weiterempfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.

Excellent choice.

If I was being very picky there was nowhere to hang wet coats. Perhaps also some hooks on back of bathroom doors? Absolutely everything else catered for.
