Lovely Cottage in the Cork & Kerry Mountains. Stunning Views A Hikers Paradise

Nestled against a mountain side up a 4km lane that takes you deep into a secluded valley on the Beara Peninsula, you will find the cottage which is surrounded by waterfalls and stunning countryside with rolling hills to the east, and the Cork & Kerry mountains and the top of the Healy pass to the West. It is an Ideal retreat that offers a perfect mood space to detach from the hectic world we live in and collect your thoughts and relax, with a beautiful landscape that draws you in as you sit and watch the sun cast its shadows across the mountains. You really are at mother natures mercy here. There are stunning walks to be had straight from the front door as well as in the local area. If sightseeing is your bag then there are many places to visit, including the Ring of Beara with its deserted coves and small beaches that look out over panoramic coastal views, Dursey Island and the boat trips that take in Bull Rock, The Skellig Islands, The famous ring of Kerry, The popular towns of Kenmare and Killarney with its Jaunting cars and national park to name just a few.

It is hard to figure where you stay these days because you get the address just before going. So it was a bit of a surprise. A good surprise. The place is a tiny house, in the middle of nowhere with an amazing view. The river below is magnificent. The opportunities for walk are probably endless (we only had two nights). It was perfect to discover Ireland. Our host was very kind and helpful.

The area was gorgeous! The pictures don’t do it justice. I highly recommend this place especially if you are looking for beautiful scenery. Jonathan was very friendly and gave us excellent places to see and/or eat at.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely little cottage. From the cottage you can walk up the surrounding hills where you get a beautiful view into the valley and out onto the ocean. Jonathan is a wonderful host who makes you feel right at home and provides you with lots of recommendations, including local pubs and activities in the area. The cottage is small but very cozy and it has a stunning view from the big living room window. Highly recommend!
