We enjoyed our 3 night stay at Glenview Lodge very much. The house was very comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. It is in a calm and quiet area, with an amazing view. Just what we needed to come back to after each busy day exploring this beautiful area. During our stay we visited Cork, Kinsale and Killarney National Park. There are a few shops in Broadford and even a take away open late, which we took advantage of on one of the days we returned quite late. The hosts Monica and Sean were so nice and made us feel very welcome. I would not hesitate to recommend this property and we will definitely stay here again if we are lucky enough to find ourselves in the area in the future.

The youngest 27 and oldest 68, four of us all together thoroughly enjoy the accommodation. 30 acres worth of peaceful, relaxing walks. A wood burning fireplace heats up the early morning dew. House location suited our needs for visiting any south west town easily. You will want for more time.

It was so very peaceful and was a welcoming place after a long day of sightseeing. We had a fire every night and ate wonderful meals in the large, modern kitchen. We each had our own bathroom as well as one downstairs. We used the washer and dryer. Appreciated the coffee maker as well as the electric tea kettle and French press. The lproperty was so beautiful and quiet.

Glenview Lodge is a lovely property -and what a setting! Surrounded by trees and nothing but green fields beyond, the sense of tranquility was wonderful. Great for families with small children and adults (like us)escaping the city noise. The Lodge also offers good access to local attractions and some of the 'Big Sights' like Killarney and Dingle are all within reach for a grand day out. Our hosts were always contactable but there were absolutely no issues on out trip. Thank you Sean and Monica.
