Although the house is remote, in less than 10 minutes you are in the village of Waterville with supermarkets, restaurants, typical Irish pubs and a bus service to other towns. You are also 10 minutes from the beach and golf courses and less than 5 minutes from Lough Currane, known for its salmon and sea trout fly fishing. From the house you can walk the Kerry Way. The house is fully equipped, 3 bedrooms (1 double bed, 3 single beds and 1 folding bed), 2 bathrooms, (1 with bath) a modern dining / living kitchen and a lovely living room with wood stove and lake views.
Nature and surroundings
Waterville is situated on the beautiful Ballinskelligs bay with beautiful sandy beaches. Across the bay is Ballinskelligs where Gaelic, the original Irish language, is still spoken. From there a breathtaking route runs through St. Finan,s Bay from where the Skellig Islands can be seen. If you continue driving you are, via a bridge, soon on Valentia Island; towards Caherdaniel you will find the most beautiful beach in Ireland, Derrynane Beach There is a sailing/surfing school, you can go horseback riding, make beautiful walks or find a nice quiet place to read a book and enjoy the sun. If you drive inland from the house you will come through the Ballaghisheen Pass to Killarney via a beautiful route along Ireland's highest mountains: the Macgillycuddy Reeks. If you drive back to the house via the southern route, you'll pass through the picturesque towns of Kenmare and Sneem. And if you don't feel like all that then you can stay at home in front of the fireplace with a good book.

This house is highly recommended if you enjoy peace and quiet, open spaces, nature, and privacy.
Dit huis is een echte aanrader als je van rust, ruimte, natuur en privacy houdt.
We thoroughly enjoyed the lovely, spacious house with its phenomenal view of the lake. It’s located on the Ring of Kerry and offers plenty of hiking opportunities. Nearby is the charming village of Waterville, where you can enjoy a drink and a bite to eat by the sea.
Friendly and helpful owners.We hebben enorm genoten van het heerlijke ruime huis met een fenomenaal uitzicht over het meer. Het ligt aan de Ring of Kerry en biedt volop wandelmogelijkheden. Dichtbij is het leuke dorp Waterville waar je aan zee kunt genieten van een drankje en hapje.

Pleasantly decorated house and fully equipped. The contract with landlord was also very pleasant.
Prettig ingericht huis en van alle gemakken voorzien. Ook het contract met verhuurder was erg prettig.
Very nice view and all the peace around you. You can also hike from the cottage very well.
Zeer fraai uitzicht en alle rust om je heen. Ook wandelen kan vanuit het huisje prima.
