So much to see of historic nature and the beauty of the landscape breathtaking, from the Skelligs to cliff walks to the beauty of the blue flag beaches in the area. Food lovers paradise. Favourite restaurant is Driftwood, just 10 minute drive from Ballinskelligs. Cois Trá Café with a stroll down to the beach a must.

The staff and guests were very open an hospitable in the Hostel before, during and after the trip. We were disappointed not to get to the islands because of the weather but there was so much else to se and do in the area that we had plenty of alternatives. There was terrific scenery to see no matter what road we took for a walk in the area and we left knowing we needed to stay a lot longer ! The beach café close by was a novel experience for us.

A beautifully quiet village with a lovely safe beach for swimming, and other watersports, lots of great walks, and has a beautiful backdrop of mountains. It has one small shop only and one pub. There is an arts centre with coffee shop but not open consistently. It's a few miles to Cahirciveen or Waterville to find restaurants and theres a Supervalue supermarket in Cahirciveen. The skies at night are magnificent due to lack of light pollution

There is a lot to see, so get on your bike and explore the entire area. When you finished biking go for a hot Chocolate at the chocolate factory. Otherwise just chill and have a good rest. There is a good bit of history in the area, you can also connect with something positive and beautiful on the spiritual side!

Good beach walk, ruined abbey to visit (free), Sunday morning craft and food market. Pub had gone downhill since last visit and was not yet doing food. Nor were the take away places opposite open in mid-June. There is one well equipped shop, but it closed around 6pm and one cafe that I did not get a chance to visit. A place for people who like the simple life!
Location was great, only a short drive away (approx. 15 mins) from Waterville and Cahersiveen, and a great location to explore the Kerry coast, Skellig islands, Valentia Island, etc.
The B&B itself is a charming refurbished school house, and we found the bedroom to be spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. Our hosts were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious (and made to order), served in the very pleasant guest lounge. Overall we enjoyed our 2-night stay there.
Thank you!
Setting is beautiful and peaceful. The views from the sunroom are spectacular of the Irish countryside and you can see St. Finian's Bay and Skellig Michael. Great skellig ring location. We got to help herd sheep and watch shearing! Host Michael was very quick to respond to our requests and went above and beyond to resolve minor problems. The house is well equipped and accommodated 5 adults well. The wood burning stove worked well and was pleasant to use when the Summer Irish weather turned cooler.
This is a fantastic location very close to a pretty beach, where it's safe to swim. Lots of great scenery and if into hiking would recommend Bollus Head close by. It's only a short drive to nearest towns and supermarket, restaurants etc. The staff were fantastic, the hostel is really well equipped and kept really clean.
The kitchen had room for three people to cook simultaneously, and amenities to accommodate (pans, pots, flatware, dinnerware). The dining area was on the small side, but large enough to have four or five families (in normal times). Pleasant decor, decent quality as well. Good hostel setup.
Kitchen have everything what you need to prepare your food, dinning room is nice ,clean. Bathroom very clean, bedroom big enaufe, materaces bit old. Garden nice for kids running around. First time in hostel with kids but we comming home with good memories. Thank you.
House and Location are amazing close to the beach and playground and the kids loved Skellig Chocolate Factory and driftwood restaurant all within walking distance and just a short drive about 6km to Kerry Cliffs which are stunning .
Would definitely recommend.
Such a lovely couple and so welcoming. We haven’t stayed in a B&B in many years so it was a novelty and we had forgotten how homely it is versus hotels. Dominick was such fun with his magic tricks.. kept us entertained at breakfast!
Hospitality! This place was absolutely amazing the staff was so friendly and v welcoming to my family of 5. Breakfast was amazing, and the room was spacious. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Kerry or Skeligs.
The house was very spacious especially the living room combined kitchen. The views from the house were absolutely gorgeous. Lots of room for a big family and we loved the area. The beach is very close by.
Dog friendly and in a great location; v scenic. Near to Ballinskellig; Portmagee and Caherisveen. Basic facilities but has a small fridge, hob for frying and Netflix. Tim Baked lovely bread for breakfast.
This was a beautiful house and the location was perfect both for exploring Ballinskelligs on foot and for driving the Skellig ring. Hosts were very kind and helpful. Would happily stay again!
Lovely owners and fresh breakfast in the mornings, great location for Skellig tours nearby. It was also nice to meet more travelers in the common rooms for a beverage in the evening.
Very friendly!! got to see a newborn calf! the fire was lighting and electric blankets where on the beds! super sweet! oh and the brown bread lives up to its rep!
Breakfast was the right size and kids had pancakes which they loved. Kerry is a beautiful county and although the b&b is remote it’s not to far from anything.
