The guests will have full use of the entire house and grounds. The house is situated beside the sea amid the most stunning coastal scenery of the Wild Atlantic Way. Indeed it is just beside the Signature Point ‘Ceann Sleibhe’ (Slea Head), indicating that it is one of the most beautiful parts of the amazing driving route. It is also on the Slea Head Drive, a beautiful driving route on the Dingle Peninsula, and just below the Dingle Way (Slí Chorca Dhuibhne), a terrific walking trail. It is surrounded by archaeological monuments, and by a working sheep farm. Views to the south-east, across Dingle Bay, of Carrantuohill, the highest mountain in Ireland, south across to the Iveragh Peninsula and west to the Blasket Islands (which can be reached by ferry from Dún Chaoin (Dunquin), only 4 miles down the road. Choughs and gannets abound in this area, and you might be lucky and even see a pod of dolphins passing.
If you have an interest in film, you would like to know that some of ‘Far and Away’, starring Tom Cruise, was shot here, and much of ‘Ryan’s Daughter’ was shot nearby. More recently, ‘The Last Jedi’, of the Star Wars series, was shot only a few miles away – so they have certainly recognised how beautiful the area is!
The Dingle Peninsula has probably the greatest concentration of archaeological monuments of any part of Ireland, and they are here for you to discover. Your host will be able to advise on visiting many sites, from Bronze Age to Medieval.
Accommodation in the house consists of 4 bedrooms 2 with bathrooms en suite, 4 of which are doubles (3 king) and 2 have a single bed as well as a double. There is a downstairs bathroom with shower and jacuzzi bath. The downstairs consists of a large kitchen/dining room, large sitting room, entrance hall and main hall, utility room and one bedroom as well as the bathroom.
Your host, Aedán, has lived here all his life, and comes from a long line of farmers who have worked this land for centuries. He is very knowledgeable about living in the area, and can suggest plenty of excursions and activities for you. His family live nearby and will also be on-hand to offer advice and information.
No wi-fi provided – the downside of being in a remote, beautiful area, surrounded by mountains! So a good place to escape from the hurley-burley of modern life. You can listen to the waves breaking on the cliffs below, and to the many birds which pass by. On clear nights the vista of a huge, starry sky is entrancing.
There is ample off-road parking beside the house, but no public transport in the area, so a car (or bike for the hardy!) is necessary.
English and Irish spoken. Basic French and Spanish.
This area has inspired poets and artists – come and see what it might do for you!

    Atlantic Rest is the perfect name for this property. We spent 8 nights enjoying the extraordinary views and visiting all that Slea Head Dr., Conors Pass and downtown Dingle has to offer. The Blasket Island and Skellig Michael, where Star Wars was filmed, can be seen right out the front windows. The property was very clean and has modern, working coveniences. Aedan was a great host and being part of the Hold a baby lamb farm was fun but non-intrusive. We would reccomend this property to whomever wants to experience the most beautiful place on earth.

    This charming place is gorgeous with breathtaking views. Our group of 6 did not feel cramped at all. The kitchen was large, well maintained, and stocked with coffee and tea. Thrre was both a washer and a dryer making laundry amongst us much easier. We did not have noise restrictions and the little trafic outside wasn't audible inside. There was a sheep farm next door where they ofder ro let you pet and feed them. It is also close to the Beehive huts, Open sea fort, and Blasket Isle museum. Where they filmed some of the recent Star Wars. The host was very friendly and helpful with places to see and eat.

    Our stay was wonderful. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The bedrooms were spacious and welcoming, and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials. The home itself was beautiful, with plenty of space to unwind and enjoy. We only wish we had more time to soak it all in—the location was ideal, and the view was truly spectacular. Highly recommend!

    WOW! This property exceeded our expectations. The views were excellent, there was more than enough room for all of us. The owners were very communicative. The sheep and baby lambs were a plus!

    House was in a beautiful location with stunning views and was modern. The host responded quickly and did best to ensure our stay was good. An fyi not disclosed this house does have an attached apartment farm hands live in. They were kind and it was not a problem as well as the lamb farm next store. So not very private.

    Wonderful place outside Dingle for a getaway. Bit of a drive to town, but plenty of cabs available if you are out having fun - arrange the trip back at night.BEAUTIFUL VIEWS of the Atlantic! We spent 2 nights there on our tour of the Wild Atlantic Way. Spacious accommodations, we had 6 adults, easily sleeps 8 or 10. Bathrooms, kitchen, appliances all new and well kept. I'd love to go back for a longer stay. I didn't realize we were right by a working sheep farm, and the baby lambs were an added bonus. Great house!

    We loved our stay at this house on Slea Head. It had lots of sleeping spaces and the kitchen was modern and well stocked. The location and views were the best!

    What an amazing place and a wonderful home base to explore the gorgeous Dingle peninsula! The home is large and beautifully decorated, with plenty of room for our family and everything we needed for our stay. Our host Aedan was welcoming and attentive, going above and beyond to answer our questions and make us feel comfortable. The views are spectacular! We loved feeding and holding the lambs and exploring the ancient beehive huts and stone forts on the property. Our only regret was that we couldn’t spend more time there. We hope to return someday and would stay here again. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful experience of Irish landscape, but bring a warm coat for cool breezy days! We even got a view of the Skelligs from the window!
