A hidden gem, the photos don’t do it justice

Beautifully decorated & very cosy

Beautifully decorated. Very clean Snug

The location was superb - close to both Valentia town and Portmagee, and the breathtaking Skelling Ring landscapes. The short hike to Bray Head on Valentia gave spectacular views of the Kerry Cliffs, and Skellig and Blasket islands. Wild and wonderful, Valentia is a very special place to explore.

Our only, slightly negative feedback to our lovely host was the main bed was a bit too short for my 6'2" husband, and a bit too soft for a sound night's sleep. Other than that, it was a unique cottage with every other comfort well planned out and obviously well-cared for by Anthea.

It's charm. It was very well kept and the kids loved it. The owner had thought of detail in order to make you welcome. Little things that a family needs were well catered for. And then if that wasn't enough she came over to welcome us. Very kind. The house and the setting is beautiful.

No complaints.

Simply amazing stay at this truly wonderful location. The house is so cosy and is a great place to base yourself for local travel. It has everything that you would need for a relaxing stay and I just wish I had more time to enjoy this stay and the Island. I shall be back 👌

We did not stay here it had a sewage problem so Kathleen gave us The Blue Cottage Valentia

We arrived at Blue Cottage and outside looked like a building site. When we entered the property the damp fusty smell was awful. It alk looked clean and bathroom was newly refurbished. But unfortunately the bed linen was damp and fusty. We tried to get alternate place ro stay but everywhere was booked up. Do not stay at The Blue Cottage Valentia.

The house couldn't be cuter!! Large, updated bathroom. Had a lovely evening relaxing. Hoping to return one day to spend a few more nights exploring the island.

beautiful, authentic cottage on middle of island. great kitchen en sleeping rooms. we loved it!
