Our second time back with Sinead. So much so we have two weeks booked in 2023. Sinead is friendly, does everything she can to make you feel welcome. Lovely welcome cake left for us on arrival. Our two dogs love it here as so peaceful and just like home. The house is perfect, spacious, spotlessly clean. Beds are very comfortable. House has everything you need. Dereen Gardens are a must. Helen’s bar is excellent. We went to the bamboo gardens but must be under new management or heading that way as very neglected. Quite slippery under foot. Very disappointing. Some nice walks but needs a good spruce up. Shop, deli, petrol station in Ardgroom. Also post office. Lovely and friendly. Definitely worth spending your money on a holiday in Sineads beautiful house. Thank you. See you next year. Helen Stephen Ty and Goose x. Co. Mayo

Idyllic location with stunning views.. The house is a great base to explore the Beara Peninsula. The hosts have thought of everything when equipping the house. Really well laid out house, plenty of space both inside and out and of course animal friendly is a real plus. Would definitely recommend

Curraha is a gorgeous house with the most beautiful views you could find in the world.. The house is spacious, spotlessly clean and wonderfully relaxing. Everything has been done to a high standard. The beds were amazingly comfy

The house and grounds are presented and maintained to a very high standard.. The facilities, equipment, access, are second to none. The meet-and-greet from host was spot on. The information provided about the house, location and surrounding area was complete, useful and welcoming. Some of the best circular and linear walks in Ireland, from the front door, are to be enjoyed with good boots, cafes enroute and the best of scenery. Would highly recommend this house and it's facilities and location. Top class and a credit to the owners and carers. BL

A fabulous property with breathtaking views.. The property was clean very well equipped with everything you would need home from home. If you’re looking for a beautiful spot, deep in the Kerry mountains I would highly recommend this cottage. Special thanks to Sinead and her family

Fantastic house in beautiful location.. I do recommend having a car or other form of transport as shops are far away and there is a lot to explore on the Ring of Beara and beyond. This was exactly what we wanted, and the location is beautiful for walks. I would highly recommend this house and area for a peaceful, tranquil and comfortable holiday. It is a the perfect location for exploring as it is halfway down the Beara Peninsula and also at the foot of the Healy Pass which will bring you into West Cork in minutes.

Amazing house with beautiful views. Located halfway down the Beara Peninsula at the foot of the Healy Pass so ideal for touring the Ring Of Beara and getting into West Cork in minutes over the Pass. The house is very comfortable and spacious. Didn’t want for anything there and hated leaving! Peddles and Boots Cafe down the road is well worth a visit, but I would recommend having a car as the location is quite remote (which is what we wanted). No immediate neighbors so house very private. Kenmare is about 25 mins by car and some very nice restaurants and shops there.

Beautiful cottage with amazing views.. Crisp clean beautiful smelling bedsheets. Kitchen has everything you could need and is open plan to dinner and sitting room, perfect so you don't miss spending time with the family. The downstairs bedroom was a plus for us as my mother travelled with us and she isn't so mobile. Bedrooms are spacious and clean with comfy beds. I would definately recommend this property. Plus the owners mother that met us on arrival, lovely welcoming lady. We was sad to leave

A clean, tidy, well finished house, spectacular views, especially sunset, great location for touring Kerry and West Cork.. Lovely friendly people always willing to help. Plenty of room, all rooms are large and airy.

This is the best equipped and has the most breathtaking views we have experienced.. A friendly welcome really starts the holiday well. Remember to get your shopping done before you arrive as there is not much chance when you get there. This is the price you pay for the tranquility and the beautiful views.

The location was remote, but exactly what we were looking for! It was very easy to drive to local sites and attractions. The host made us aware to pick up our shopping before we arrived and let us know where the closest small shops and villages were. It was a wonderful base to explore from. The house was very clean, well provisioned and very comfortable.

The hosts were amazing! So friendly and understanding with our requests and provided us with everything we needed! We will absolutely be booking here again later on the year and I will encourage more of my own family to book this property because of its amazing value!

This house is stunning! Such a great location. We took our 2 dogs with us and they had a ball too! It is out the way a bit (nearest pub 4km, shops 30 mins drive. There maybe a local shop open during the summer 10 mins walk) this wasn't an issue for us. There were so many lovely walks on the doorstep. We even walked the 4km there and back to the pub one evening and they allowed the dogs in. (Food nothing special at the pub but cheap and cheerful and staff lovely. We even went for a quick pint on the way home with only the card, which they dont except and they let us drop the money in the next day!) The house itself was so nice. Kevin that met us when we arrived was very nice, said if we needed anything to ring him, which we didn't. The only thing I would mention is if you're not used to heat (like we arent) ask Kevin to turn off the heating as you can always put it on boost if you feel you need it. We were there end of October and the house was very warm. Fab insulation I'd say (this is not a complaint, we just aren't used to the heat!!). Take a walk to Rabach Glen while you're there (info in the book at the house) it's a good 4/5 hour round walk from the house but you can also drive down to make it a 2/3 hour walk. You must put dogs on a lead as there are sheep there. We will definitely go here again as we still have so much to explore! Thanks to Sinead (who owns the house) and Kevin (the host)
