A thoughtfully run and very comfortable B&B. A little bit of a hike to town, on a narrow country lane -- so walking at night wasn't a good option. The Continental breakfast with French press coffee was a nice touch.

Lovely room, quiet location, onsite parking. We were a bit disappointed with not having a kettle in the room to make tea. We were able to use the kitchen but if awake in the night we would be reluctant to use it for fear of disturbing the other residents.

This place is an excellent choice for people planning to make the trip to Skellig Michael. Simple but meets your needs. The owner was flexible in our arrival which was most helpful. The area is quiet and peaceful. We could tell that the walls were a bit thin and could hear other guests, however most people made an effort to be respectful. Breakfast serve-yourself choices were also simple but very good. Great option and value for the area. I would happily stay there again.

Very nice B&B if you've plan to attend Skelling island tour. Really walkable from the pier to the B&B and very not far from the Kerry's cliffs also. Very clean and Andy is awesome. Very enjoyed my stay there.
