About this property

Modernised comfortable cottage close to blue flag beaches on the Dingle way

Muklaghbeg cottage has four bedrooms and three bathrooms and sleeps 8 people.
The cottage is part of a group of 9 cottages situated off a very quiet back road which leads along an estuary into Castlegregory village. It has been lovingly and sympathetically modernised several years ago, and is a warm and comfortable haven in which to unwind, relax and escape from the noise and stress of modern city living. With quality furnishings throughout and an exceptionally well supplied kitchen, there are fabulous views of the mountains behind. Mucklaghbeg is situated in its own grounds - a large lawn outside the sunroom windows is perfect for children, but is adjacent to the other cottages on their own private avenue.

The cottage is located approximately 2K from Castlegregory and 26K from Tralee in County Kerry. The beach is only a 5 minute walk away if you cross the stepping stones at low tide over the Owencashla river, or take a winding lane which leads across a bridge to get to Castlegregory strand. Quiet and peaceful, this area of County Kerry abounds in great walking and wildlife spotting opportunities - Mount Brandon, Ireland's second highest mountain, dominates the views. Golf, fishing, and scuba diving are also found close by. The Maharees on the far side of Castlegregory is home to some of Europes best windsurfing and kitesurfing on Brandon Bay - Irelands longest golden sand beach - and the safe haven of Sandy Bay which has an excellent kids club during the summer months offering Banana boating, Kayaking, a bouncy castle and sea trampolines - fantastic enjoyment for children! Take a drive over Irelands highest mountain road, the Connor Pass, and discover the harbour town of Dingle, or take a boat trip to the Blasket islands for some seal spotting, or even the occasional whale….this is a location you will want to return to again and again.

The Spar supermarket in Castlegregory has an extensive selection of food and drink, so shopping can be done on your doorstep. In the evenings the local pubs have fabulous music and craic, and there are a number of excellent restaurants where a friendly welcome is always assured.

About the host

Hosted by LUCY PAUL

Host profile image
Our family live in London, but spend as much time as we can in Kerry - it is a truly fabulous location to get away from life's pressures. We sadly cannot be there all year round, but want to offer others the wonderful opportunities that County Kerry gives - there really is something for everyone. We have 2 boys who have spent their holidays in Kerry since they were tiny - and they still love returning!

Why they chose this property

It is close to Castlegregory and Tralee, but rural enough to be really peaceful. There are 8 other cottages in our immediate area, but we all co-operate and keep the place very well maintained - grass cut, avenue cared for etc. Rubbish is collected weekly.

What makes this property unique

Rural and tranquil - a tonic for the soul, but loads to do if you choose to do so.
