Schöner Aufenthalt in einem perfekten Haus
Das Haus liegt in einer einzigartigen Traumlage mit Blick auf die Bucht von Kenmare und das gegenüberliegende Ufer. Das Haus ist sehr schön und modern gebaut. Es bietet mit seinen großen Fenstern nicht nur einen besonderen Ausblick auf das Wasser, sondern auch viel Tageslicht. Die Ausstattung des Hauses lässt keine Wünsche offen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und hoffen, dass wir bald einmal wieder kommen können. Vielen Dank an Liam, dass er ein so seltenes Objekt vermietet!

Beautiful Location
The property is very well appointed, clean and beautifully located with clear views across the bay and into the West. Add a little sun and you get a perfect hideaway to relax and recharge. It is also easy to get around if you want to explore Kerry and West-Cork.

Rockwell Cottage irische Natur und Gastfreundschaft
Gemeinsam mit Freunden verbrachten wir eine wunderbare Zeit im Rockwell Cottage. Das Cottage liegt in einer wunderschönen ruhigen Umgebung mit Sicht auf das Meer und die gegenüberliegende Uferlandschaft. Der grosszügige Wohnraum, die Schlafzimmer und die Küche sind komfortabel und mit allen notwendigen technischen Geräten eingerichtet. Wir fühlten uns sofort zu Hause und haben an den verschiedenen Aussensitzplätzen mit herrlicher Aussicht. Ein tolles Cottage für alle die etwas Komfort schätzen und die idyllische irische Natur geniessen wollen. Manfred und Freunde aus der Schweiz
