Wonderful stay.

The house was very comfortable, clean and nicely presented. All four bedrooms and three bathrooms were all ready and available for us to choose from. Bridget was very helpful and friendly. We would book again with no hesitation if we come back to Kerry. The views all around the house were wonderful and we never tired of watching the changes. The house is very well located for trips around the Ring of Kerry, Dingle and so much more.
Beautiful rooms.
A view from every window.

A Great Place to Stay

The house was excellent and the photos on the website do not do it justice. Bridget the owner was very helpful and friendly. The house was well maintained and had everything we needed for a lovely holiday in Glenbeigh. Beautiful vistas and views from the house. We enjoyed our lovely stay there immensely.

Neat as a pin. Bright and cheerful. Attentive host, Bridget. More like a home than a cottage.

Gorgeous views of mountains from every room, front and back. Short drive to ocean & lake. Beautiful area in rain or shine.

A great week in Kerry

A great property that we highly recommend. The house is large, spotlessly clean and the view on the Kerry mountains is gorgeous. It is also ideally situated to explore beautiful Kerry. The owners are very nice and welcoming. It was a pleasure to stay in your pretty house. Isabelle and Ludovic

Wonderful Place on the Ring of Kerry

Bridget and Dan's place was amazing! It was extremely clean, well-equipped and very comfortable. We felt right at home. Bridget left us milk and treats which was very nice to have. They were great with communication and live next door. When the Wifi went down and I let them know, Dan came right over and fixed the issue. The house was very convenient to sites in the Kerry area. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend their place to others.

A spacious, clean, comfortable, well equipped & well maintained property in a peaceful setting just off the Ring of Kerry. Perfect location for exploring the Ring of Kerry & the Dingle peninsula. The owners live in a separate property next door & are a pleasure to deal with. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again if ever back that way.

Fabulous Place on Ring of Kerry

This 4 bedroom 3 bath home on the Ring of Kerry is a very comfortable modern home It has all the amenities and the owner, Bridger McSweeney, was extremely helpful. Killarney Town, Dingle and the Ring are very accessible from this home. My family (wife, son, daughter in-law and grand daughter spent a delightful week here even though the weather was a bit damp. Would stay here again without hesitation and recommend this home enthusiastically.

Wonderful Staycation

We are just back from a wonderful week at Bridget's property. The house was completely spotless when we arrived and Bridget was very helpful in any queries we had . In terms of keeping a 9 year old occupied in the evenings, the Smart TV which allowed access to Netflix / Prime / YouTube etc. was very much appreciated. In terms of location it is an excellent base for exploring the Ring of Kerry and beyond.

Can't say enough good things

My husband and I stayed at bridget's place just off the ring of carry by a few feet. The house was amazing and immaculate there was nothing that we needed that wasn't supplied. Bridget was a fantastic host, charming and welcoming, all that is ireland itself. We plan to rent her house again in the future with other family members.

I’d give it a 10 if I could

This cottage is well above first class. We’ve stayed in many cottages over the years and this is easily in the top 3. Great location on the Ring of Kerry and beautiful Mountain View’s front and back. Convenient to Kilgorglin for groceries and shopping. I can’t say enough good words about this home which is spacious and pristine. Bridget is a lovely and welcoming host. Stay here!!!

This is a beautiful cottage, possibly the best we have stayed in. It is attractively decorated and maintained and is spotlessly clean. It has every amenity that you could want or need and is very spacious both inside and out. Bridget is kind and friendly and is willing to help out in anyway she can. The cottage is handy for visiting all areas of south Kerry and there are lots of places to see, things to do on your doorstep. We had a lovely stay and would definitely come back again if we have the opportunity.

Brilliant location to explore Kerry. Great accommodation.

This house is so well equipped and is pristine. We were a couple but there is plenty of space for a family. Big garden front and rear, parking for multiple cars. The views are brilliant, can watch the weather clear to show the peak of Carrantuohill. House is just off the Ring of Kerry and is not far from Killorglin. We would love to visit again and bring the family. Would definitely book Bridgets house again. Highly recommended!!

Simply the best- outstanding home

This was simply the best. Bridget and Dan were wonderful. The house was more than we expected in a great way. They take so much pride in their house. So lovely and clean. And the property is so well maintained. They provide everything you could possibly need or require. It felt like home away from home. Would Definity rent from them again and have no problem referring them to our family and friend. Cannot say enough about how wonderful this home was.
