This gorgeously furnished, delightful B&B will embrace you like a warm hug. Nestled in the spectacular Ring of Kerry in the seaside town of Waterville (charming and idyllic in its own right), our beautiful room overlooking the ocean was exceptionally comfortable, clean, cosy and thoughtfully equipped. Thank you to our lovely, hospitable hosts for making our stay such a highlight; we didn't want to leave.

Everything about this property was great. Wonderful view, tons of space and communication with the host was fantastic. It is hard to find a place that offers 4 seperate bedrooms with multiple bathrooms. I thought that fresh milk, fresh bread and cereal were a great touch.

The place is wonderful. It's in the middle of a stunningly beautiful garden. Michael lives nearby but it feels private. I didn't see him after I checked in. Not a lot of windows inside but it gets some light in the morning anyway since it's on top of an exposed hill. There are outside sitting terraces all around, including a secluded one in the back. Views are amazing. Everything was very thoughtfully prepared, including cut flowers from the garden. Highly recommend.

The house was excellent with the perfect layout. Ample living space and very comfortable. The location of the house was also perfect for us, very close to the Main Street and seafront and also right beside tennis courts and a playground just a couple of minutes walking distance. There was also a large green area directly in front of the house which we found very safe for the kids to play freely.

We loved the adjoining rooms with the bathroom in between.. perfect for our family with 2 tween boys!! Location was fab..walking distance to pubs and shops and the seafront. Great base for further exploring. Hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating. We look forward to a return visit in the future.

Great classic place with comfortable rooms and a friendly owner family. Although the rooms were great it was the restaurant which made them really stand out. Breakfast options are worth every penny, go for the fresh fish (trout or salmon) if you like. Dinner is not available every day (check beforehand), but was also excellent.

Very warm and comfortable stay with a very friendly host family. The food in their restaurant is extraordinary delicious. The family is very helpful and welcoming. The accomodation is in walking distance from the pier yet quiet and relaxing with very cosy rooms and beds. The family offers a big variety of breakfast options of homemade delicious food.
