About this house rental

Muklaghbeg cottage has four bedrooms and three bathrooms and sleeps 8 people. The cottage is part of a group of 9 cottages situated off a very quiet back road which leads along an estuary into Castlegregory village. It has been lovingly and sympathetically modernised several years ago, and is a warm and comfortable haven in which to unwind, relax and escape from the noise and stress of modern city living. With quality furnishings throughout and an exceptionally well supplied kitchen, there are fabulous views of the mountains behind. Mucklaghbeg is situated in its own grounds - a large lawn outside the sunroom windows is perfect for children, but is adjacent to the other cottages on their own private avenue. The cottage is located approximately 2K from Castlegregory and 26K from Tralee in County Kerry. The beach is only a 5 minute walk away if you cross the stepping stones at low tide over the Owencashla river, or take a winding lane which leads across a bridge to get to Castlegregory strand. Quiet and peaceful, this area of County Kerry abounds in great walking and wildlife spotting opportunities - Mount Brandon, Ireland's second highest mountain, dominates the views. Golf, fishing, and scuba diving are also found close by. The Maharees on the far side of Castlegregory is home to some of Europes best windsurfing and kitesurfing on Brandon Bay - Irelands longest golden sand beach - and the safe haven of Sandy Bay which has an excellent kids club during the summer months offering Banana boating, Kayaking, a bouncy castle and sea trampolines - fantastic enjoyment for children! Take a drive over Irelands highest mountain road, the Connor Pass, and discover the harbour town of Dingle, or take a boat trip to the Blasket islands for some seal spotting, or even the occasional whale….this is a location you will want to return to again and again. The Spar supermarket in Castlegregory has an extensive selection of food and drink, so shopping can be done on your doorstep. In the evenings the local pubs have fabulous music and craic, and there are a number of excellent restaurants where a friendly welcome is always assured.

Lucy was very keen to ensure we had 10 enjoyable days. We appreciated the heating in the house, though we felt it could have been turned down somewhat - especially with the weather being rather mild. The house met all our expectations, providing comfortable beds, nice showers, a fully equipped kitchen, and last but not least, all sorts of games and books to pass the time indoors. With the house being situated in an area surrounded by various beaches, we could walk along different coastlines, visit tourist attractions or go to restaurants in reasonable driving distance. All in all we had a fabulous time, even when the sun wasn’t shining.

The Hostess, Marie, is a “Super Star”. She showed us with a level of hospitality that we have seldom experienced. She made our stay quite comfortable.

The house was very nice and was just as we expected. Beds were comfortable and everything was clean. Bathrooms nice the Wet room shower was fantastic. It was close enough to be able to venture around ring of Kerry one day and to the cliffs of Moher the other. Both a lot of driving but very do able. Would definitely stay again. The dinning room / sunroom was a major plus we enjoyed breakfast while watching the bunnies in the grass. Couple of small notes would not keep me from staying again at all but just for expectations. The hot water heater is a little strange it makes a loud noise sometime which subsided once you run the cold water in the kitchen. The Beatles jigsaw puzzle was missing several pieces FYI. The bedrooms are very small. they are totally great for sleeping but a little hard when traveling with stuff. The back bedroom with the bathroom has no closet and almost no space for a suitcase or bag. We used the 4th bedroom as a walk-in since we only had 4 adults and 2 kids. All in all our trip to Ireland was excellent and we will fondly remember Castlegregory and our stay there.

We found the cottage to have everything we needed for the family. The kids loved the walk to the water every evening. The garden was a bonus for them to play. It was very quiet which we loved and our little one slept longer than anyone because of the peace and quiet.
