Ideal Spot for Exploring Ring of Kerry & Dingle Peninsula

Great edge of town location for exploring the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, and other sites in SW Ireland. House is well stocked and comfortable for two couples or a family of four. Easy walk to groceries and reasonable walk to downtown Kenmare. Ann the hostess is very responsive to questions -- highly recommend this property!

The house in Kenmare is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. Ann couldn't be nicer and it was a pleasure meeting her. The location is lovely and it's a very easy walk to town. Markets, shops, and restaurants are all close by. Thanks again to Ann for making our stay so enjoyable!

Great place to stay in Kenmare

I can’t say enough good things about this property and it’s host. It is very well appointed with everything you need, plus more. It was a wonderful jumping off point to visit Killarney National Park, drive the Ring of Kerry, and of course spend evenings strolling through lovely Kenmare. We felt at home here right away, we wanted for nothing, and only wish we could have spent a whole week here! We would definitely stay here again.

Visiting Kenmare and Beara Peninsula. One of the most beautiful areas of Ireland we have visited.

Ann is an excellent host. The house is clean, comfortable and the kitchen is extremely well equipped even down to crystal wine glasses which we used on New Years Eve. The walk into Kenmare is paved and takes 15 minutes if you don’t want to drive. We would book again.

Excellent Property and Host

Ann was the most welcoming host we’ve ever experienced through VRBO. She baked us scones and left out a big bowl of fruit for us. She thoroughly explained all the workings of the house as well as left detailed written instructions including recommendations for restaurants and pubs. This was an amazing experience and I would definitely stay here again.

Ann meet us for check-in, explaining how a few things work that are different than my home country (US). She left us freshly baked scones, coffee/tea, and a few breakfast options, as well as a bowl of fresh fruit. The house was super clean and very comfortable.

Perfect Property

The beds are comfortable and the towels are soft. The house overall was immaculate and well stocked. Ann even provided fresh fruit, full size toiletries, home baked brown bread and a cooler for our day trip. She is the perfect hostess -- responsive, generous and very sweet. And all within a couple minutes of the Kenmare town center which might be the cutest place in all of Ireland. Could not have asked for a better accommodation.

A Great Find!

Ann's property met all our needs as a base camp for our visit to Kenmare. It has every amenity you could ask for! Located in a wonderfully quiet neighborhood, shops, grocery stores, pubs and restaurants are all within walking distance. Ann was over the top responsive! She made sure we had everything we needed, and we felt as though if there were any issues she had our backs. Grab this one if you can!

Wow!

Property was immaculate with thoughtful touches from the owner (fresh fruit, eggs, bread, and a helpful packet of information). Unlike other Vrbos that had limited amenities we loved all that this property had to offer. We ended up making dinner in the house the few nights we were there after picking up some groceries nearby. Kenmare is a cute town and you can get to places like the Ring of Kerry and Dingle easily. Hope to be back!
