Reviewed 19 Aug 2018

We had a fantastic stay in Croi na gCnoc for a week for our party of 4 plus our dog.The hosts were lovely and the house was extremely comfortable with everything we needed and beautiful views from every room, We were able to walk to the local pub which serves very good food. We travelled all around the island including doing the Bray Head loop walk, visiting the lovely little beach near Knightstown and enjoying our visit to Valentia candles. We also visited many great locations beyond the island including Waterville beach, Ballinskelligs beach, the Bollus Head loop walk and Skelligs Chocolate. We will certainly look to visit again!
