Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Anna was a gracious host and the property was lovely. We had everything we needed. The decor was just beautiful - a mix of vintage and new. Would highly recommend staying here!

A charming Kerry farmhouse with excellent facilities for vegan and vegetarian self catering,cooking
Visits from a gentle friendly local farm cat and foraging windfall apples and blackberries in the garden. Stunning seaviews. Lots of interesting books and maps available to read up on the Blasket Islands
It would benefit from an extractor fan in the kitchen.

Charming holiday home with seaview and good wifi. Nearest shop is 15 min drive away
Window seat in the lounge had great views of the bay, the sunset and distant easterly Blasket Island.
Lots of birds visited the property swallows, magpies, robins, blackbirds, starlings and gulls which were v photogenic. The garden table and rocking bench were very comfortable for outdoor meals.
The Le Creuset griddle pans and pots were a real treat .
Muirrioch Beach is closeby for a long walk.
Tig Aine outside Ballyferriter is a great location for lunch al fresco
Perhaps a soup ladle.

Irish Dream Cottage
The Ballylusky Cottage in Ballydavid was everything and more than we imagined an Irish coastal cottage could be. The cottage is in a great location for exploring the Dingle Peninsula and was the perfect size for our multi-generational family of six adults. The traditional cottage has been lovingly restored. The views of the water from the front room are absolutely stunningrain or shine. All the amenities we expected (and more) were provided and everything was well maintained and clean on our arrival. An absolute gem!
The cottage may have had this at one time, and it may have just been misplaced, but a folder with instructions on how to operate the heat and directions to the outdoor laundry shed, with washing machine and dryer instructions, would be a helpful addition.

Liked: Check-in
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in der Unterkunft leider abbrechen müssen. Wir waren zwar im Juni dort, doch es war sehr kalt und die Zentralheizung sollten wir nicht anmachen. Zwei bereitgestellte Elektroheizöfelchen sowie der Kamin machten das Haus nicht warm. Die Möbel waren klamm und es roch recht muffig. Die Sauberkeit war ok, allerdings klebten die Oberflächen besonders in der Küche und hier und da waren Spinnweben übersehen worden. Das Meer sieht man nur von Weitem, die Lage ist ok, vielleicht etwas trostlos, man muss ca. 15 Minuten nach Dingle fahren. Die oberen Räume fanden wir zwar geschmackvoll eingerichtet, aber nicht wirklich gemütlich, ja fast etwas unheimlich. Ein Raum roch besonders muffig. Der Schuppen, in dem die Waschmaschine stand, wirkte sehr dreckig. Die Trident Holiday Homes haben uns wirklich gut weitergeholfen bei unserer Beschwerde. Die Kommunikation mit Fe-Wo gestaltete sich leider sehr schwierig.
