“Just what we wanted for us and our dog”

Reviewed 28 Jun 2018

Rose Cottage was perfect holiday base for touring the area. We would definitely stay again. The view is excellent. Spectacular as the moon rose. Garden terrific for our dog. Cottage is set back from a lane with little osssing traffic. Very private and quiet. Fab beach just a couple of minutes away in the car. Started and ended each day there. Des was extremely efficient.

“Rose Cottage Rental May 2018”

Reviewed 8 May 2018

This house was a great experience for our group of friends. The location is very accessible to Ballinskelligs and the Valentia, and Portmagee areas. The house has great facilities, is very spacious facilities and offered good value for money. We will certainly use it again if we return to Ballinskelligs for a holiday. Des our host was very approachable and efficiently addressed any of our queries with booking and check in.

“Perfect location for touring around the Ring of Kerry and Dingle.”

Reviewed 27 May 2017

Loved staying at the Rose Cottage in Ballinskeligs. We stayed for 3 days and toured around the Ring of Kerry as well as Dingle. Took the Skelig Ring over to Dingle and was able to take different routs back to the house so we were able to not miss anything in Kerry. We were blessed with the best weather as well so it made for perfect views for a quiet evening.

“Great location, dog friendly”

Reviewed 17 Jul 2016

Stayed with family ranging from 80 years to 15 years. House great size and allows everyone to have their own space. Our dogs loved the garden and the house is very dog friendly. The walk to the Ballinskelligs beach takes more like 15 mins but worth it. Go early to avoid people and have the beach to yourselves for dog walking. Another option is to go to the beach on the way to Waterville - stunning is the only word to describe it and mostly empty but it doesn't have any café/toilet facilities like Ballinskelligs beach. I don't know the name of it but ask the owner and he can help you out. Cottage is in great location for visiting other places in the area. We particularly enjoyed the trip to Valencia Island. Caherisveen didn't hold much but QC's seafood restaurant offered the best fish and chips I have ever tasted - definitely worth the visit. Waterville and Portmagee were both nice and the places to go if you want to pick up some gifts. Being picky I would say the house is a bit tired and could do with some TLC (missing plugs for sinks, curtain hooks missing, shower heads not staying up) - all minor but should I feel have been sorted before our stay. There was also no wifi which was a disappointment for our 15 year old but it was nice to see him out walking and reading books for a change! The tv and playstation upstairs also weren't working but we didn't complain as we didn't miss them and I'm sure Dez the owner would have sorted for us if we had asked. Overall, we had a really lovely week, despite the weather, and would recommend this cottage if you are planning to visit Co Kerry.

Response from the owner Thank you for your review, Sorry about the little bits and pieces but i have them all sorted. We had problems with wifi as we cannot get fibre wifi and are reliant on sattelite wifi. we are presently getting a new connection so hopefully this will be sorted as well. The beach on the way to Waterville is called Reenroe beach and the whole area got a great boost yesterday as it was named one of the top 10 places in the world to visit on a lonely Planet category. Hope to see you back again
