Luxury ocean-front cottage with private beach. ALASTAIR SAWDAY RECOMMENDED

A glorious, peaceful getaway in a spectacular location. The cottage itself was lovely with lots of special touches that made it feel extra warm, cozy and high-end.

We loved the cottage and location! In all fairness, it might be more remote than some would prefer- about 20 minutes drive from Kenmare, but the private beach and dark skies make up for that. It is very secluded and peaceful. The cottage itself was much more pleasant than even the pictures show. The beds were really comfortable and the place very clean. We enjoyed a full day in during storm Amy. Cannot wait to come back. Highly recommend.

What a magnificent home! We loved staying here. The home is exactly as described in the listing. The view of Kenmare Bay right on the water was lovely and it was fantastic to be in a quiet setting with the just the sounds of the waves, the breeze, and at times the rain.. The home is in excellent condition. And it is a great location for day trips to some Irelands most enchanting locations. We look forward to returning!

What a wonderful home! So beautiful and peaceful. We were sad to leave. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet place nearby the Ring of Kerry and nearby to Kenmare.

What a superb place - thank you for a wonderful stay! Martin, Elisabeth & Conni

This place is amazing! The view is perfect, the accommodations creative and amazing!! They thought of everything. This is probably not a place for little ones but adults will enjoy it all! It’s close to several golf options, fine dining, friendly pubs and the most amazing outdoor view! The hosts and caretakers were so incredibly kind and friendly!! I cannot praise this place and area enough!!

All detailed comments in the book at the cottage it was superb

We’ve been returning to Seal Rock Cottage for three consecutive years and recently stayed 8 nights in May. When you find a place that checks all the boxes, it’s a very easy decision. The home’s location, while remote, affords the most spectacular views of Kenmare Bay and the Beara Peninsula. It is a perfect location for day excursions to The Ring of Kerry, the Beara Peninsula, Kenmare, Killarney, Glengarriff and Garinish Island, Bantry, the Healy Pass, and Parknasilla for rounds of golf. The home is just beautifully decorated, always spotless, incredibly comfortable beds, has a wonderful kitchen with great appliances, and a well stocked kitchen. It had everything that we needed to cook many meals. We were so fortunate to have had spectacular weather with sunny skies, warm days and cool nights. It was ideal for sitting outside by the water, sipping on drinks and having fires in the stone fireplace inside in the evenings. Thank you Jane and Michael for sharing your incredible home with us all to enjoy.

The cottage was everything that we hope for and more. The location is second to none. The pictures of the view. Do not do it justice. The home was immaculate when we arrived and we could not have enjoyed our stay there anymore than we did. Thank you, Jane and Mike for your hospitality and for sharing your beautiful home with us. We hope to return soon.

Stunning property and very well appointed home. Our family loved it.

A luxurious property in a wonderful setting! Off the beaten track - literally, but that’s what makes it so special. All the trappings are 5 star! Marvelous experience!

A little slice of heaven.

This cottage was the perfect place to return after a day of golf and hiking. The September weather was spectacular and we enjoyed our evening glass of wine next to Kenmore Bay.

Great stay.

The siting above Kenmare Bay afforded stunning views / sunsets. The house itself had a very thoughtful design layout and created the feeling of home. We will return.

We knew last year that we would return to Seal Rock Cottage and this year we did just that! The views are absolutely spectacular, and the home is warm and spotless! Everything about this home is perfect! If you are looking for a home that is close to Sneem, on the Ring of Kerry, and near the Berea Peninsula, yet away from the hustle and bustle, this is definitely the place. It has a well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, a beautiful stone, wood burning fireplace, and incredible views to watch the magnificent sun sets. Plus the owners are just wonderful and we are thankful to them for sharing their hidden gem with us all! We already booked our return for next year!
