    Nothing.

    Felt homely, loved the feeling the moment we walked in. Loved how there was milk, orange juice, butter and home made loaf for us on our arrival. Loved the little fire 🔥 and the wood supplied. The owners have obviously travelled and were thoughtful to a travelers needs, clothes horse, washing powder etc. there is only one thing that I could suggest is a small microwave for when we felt like enjoying a quite night in with a pre made meal and a bottle of wine. Still give it five 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 oh love the view from the couch while sipping on my wine.

    We really liked this property and couldn’t fault it.

    Very well equipped and beautifully presented. Easy to explore the Ring of Kerry from this location. The host left freshly baked scones, milk, orange juice , jam and marmalade, butter, etc which were very much appreciated.

    excellent accommodation just outside Kenmare - perfect location for my partner taking part in the Lost Sheep half Iron Man this weekend. comfortable, clean and cosy ✨️ Fresh scones, milk, butter jam and fresh orange juice was very welcome after 5 hours on the road! Everything was perfect 👌 As a fellow host I was super impressed and even came away with a few ideas for my own properties. Thank you Geraldine 😊 we hope to return and will most definitely recommend your property to others 😊

    Absolutely nothing - except we wished we had stayed longer!

    This is a superb barn conversion done in 2023. Someone has given a lot of thought not o ly about the layout and finish bilut also the decor. The apartment is just lovely, great kitchen, all the appliances you could ask for (except microwave). The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is quite luxurious. Secure parking provided and the location is ideal for exploring both the Ring of Kerry but also Kenmare. We could find no fault with the apartment, and given how expensive Ireland is, this property is exceptional value for money. We will be back for sure.

    WiFi was not very good when another couple arrived downstairs. TV picture kept freezing but didn’t affect our stay or stop us returning. Didn’t see the owner at all but communication was great though booking.com.

    Great apartment, a little out of kenmare but taxi was reasonable. Beautifully decorated with everything you need for a short stay. Some lovely scones with jam on arrival which were delicious. Amazing view from the lounge to relax in, lovely shower and very spacious bathroom.

    Only additional touch (not a negative) would be to have some champu/gel dispensers available to make the stay even smoother. Instructions to arrive are ok but a small sign at the property entry would help a bit for the initial arrival.

    This is a great property,, super clean all around and designed to make you feel cozy and comfortable. Bed very very comfy, all amenities you can need with high attention to detail leaving extra stuff such as milk, coffee or tea( but also not so common ones and super appreciated like salt, oil, napkins and even a welcome cake!!). The views and setting of the apartment is great for chilling and only 4 min drive from Kenmare bars and restaurants. This is an amazing place to stay when visiting the area

    There was nothing we didn't like. We misunderstood the advert and assumed shower gel and shampoo would be among the complimentary toiletries - the host quickly clarified, in time for us to go to the supermarket and get what we needed.

    We were a couple with a rental car. For us the location and apartment was excellent. Short drive to Aldi and Lidl, into town for restaurants, beautiful and quiet location. It was an excellent base for us to do our driving trips to sight see around that region in Ireland - ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, Cliffs of Moher etc. The apartment was exactly as described, and we had quick and easy access to supermarkets to get small items for the stay. We appreciated the beverages and snack left as a welcome.

    Really nice, new, large apartment. Beautifully decorated, windows had spectacular views. The kitchen was fully equipped, the shower in the bathroom was fabulous. We would definitely stay here again.

    No toiletries, or tissue box provided. The odd bugs, but it's next to a farm after all.

    The decor was light, spacious and contemporary. The brownies left for us were delicious. Loved the added touch of having a potbelly fireplace. The shower was excellent. The bed was firm but comfortable. The view from the apartment was perfect, even with the next door cow mooing while the vet checked her out. Location was 3 km from Kenmare town centre with lots of options for eating out. Dinner at No 35 Kenmare was excellent.

    A couple of things for even better improvement. There wasn't a microwave in the room. We struggled with power outlets as our plug that worked all over the rest of Ireland would not plug into the outlets no matter how hard we tried.

    Lovely place to stay in the country but close to Kenmare. Very clean and modern with warm touches. Loved the wood burning stove fireplace with the provided wood and matches. The fruit loaf welcome gift was a nice touch as well. Apartment 2 is upstairs with a wonderful view out of the picture windows.

    Cannot fault it.

    We would highly recommend this apartment. It has everything you need, plus more. There's even a stove that is ready to be lit with fuel available. The kitchen is fully equipped with a great oven, dishwasher, washing machine, etc. The heating is easy to work. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. Great views and spotlessly clean. Fantastic attention to detail. Will definitely visit again.
