Perfect location...great property

wonderful apartment with good service wonderful town with many good pubs and shops in the near wonderful region to hike, climb and relax

We have been back to Carrig Beag many times, it’s fantastic! This perfectly located cottage is full of charm and only a 2 minute walk to the center if town.yet in a really quiet location. Everything you could need is provided and it’s spotless clean always.

This is a lovely, cosy cottage with all mod cons ideally situated a minute’s stroll to the center of Kenmare. Great water pressure, WiFi, private parking, washer and dryer - everything perfect. Jer is a great guy, communicated before arrival with check in instructions and some very useful information on the area (which is stunning). Highly recommend booking Carrig Beag and hope to return.

Great time in Kenmare again. Carrig Beag is fantastic,perfectly located, spotless and with everything you need included!

Very nice unit, older building outside with modern inside. We were there for over two weeks and was greatly impressed with the unit and the location was right downtown, a minute walk to downtown pubs and shops. Was able to walk everywhere. Had good WiFi, satellite tv for those days staying in the condo. Washer and dryer was also great. The towel heaters in the bathrooms were great. As you can see this unit has a lot to offer, would definitely stay there again.

Kenmare is a lovely friendly town and the restaurants are excellent. The house is in a great location and perfectly set up for a family. However I would say that there’s not a great deal for children to do in the area. Though the house was furnished with everything we needed, the first impression was unfortunately a damp and musty feeling. It was all clean on the surface but under beds and sofas was very dusty, teacloths were smelly once wet and towels were a bit old. A bit of a shame. Feels like it’s in need of a refresh.

Eine schöne Unterkunft in einer Top Lage direkt zum Zentrum von Kenmare. Abends sehr viele Möglichkeiten um zu Fuß Restaurants und Bars in großer Auswahl zu finden. Unser Ansprechpartner stand kurzfristig für Fragen und Probleeme zur Verfügung. Wir würden in unserem nächsten Urlaub in Irland diese Unterkunft wieder buchen.

The house is within walking distance of the main street with restaurants, pubs and bars. Unfortunately, at night (especially on weekends) there is some noise from celebrating teens and returning passers-by. In addition, there was some noise from early in the morning by tractors with trailers for rock transport and delivering trucks to the restaurants. After seeing the pictures on the homepage, we expected more from the house. It was not clean, on the ground floor were many dead woodlice and spider webs. The bedroom, living room, the kitchen and the tea towels smelled very bad. The mattresses in the master bedroom were shorter than the bed. Some furniture looked compiled and some lamps were damaged. A plus is the private parking behind the house. Kenmare is a great location to explore the Ring of Kerry and Ring of Beara.

Located in a quiet street, yet very close to the town centre, which has numerous lively bars and a surprisingly high number of classy Michelin listed restaurants. Carig Beag has a very homely comfortabe feel. All highly recommended.

This is a fantastic cottage located literally a minute away from the Main Street in Kenmare and it’s still a lovely quiet residential street. Everything you could want if you’re visiting Kerry. We keep returning and always book Carrig Beag.

We had a fantastic week away in Kenmare and stayed in Carrig Beag. It was a great property ideally located just 2 minutes walk from Henry St and yet in a very quiet area of the town. It was equipped with everything one could possibly need, immaculately clean and had a private parking space behind the house. We’ll definitely book Carrig Beag again.

We spent a number of days in October in Carrig Beag. The house is centrally located within walking distance of all amenities . There is a very spacious kitchen/dining room with all mod cons. The house heats up very quickly which makes it very comfortable and relaxing . The bedrooms are spacious with a large onsuite n the master. Off street parking is a definite advantage. The proprietor Jer is a most kind and accommodating gentleman . He showed us great kindness and generosity during our stay which is greatly appreciated. Should you visit Kenmare, Carraig Beag is an ideal location.

Wir waren bereits zum dritten mal im Carrig Beag. Wir schätzen das wohnliche Haus, die Lage, die Nähe zu den Restaurants und Geschäften in Kenmare sowie den guten Service sehr. Kenmare bietet eine ausgezeichnete Ausgangslage für unterschiedlichste Ausflüge im Südwesten von Irland. Gerne kommen wir wieder.

This is a beautiful cottage set literally two minutes walk to the centre of town yet in a very quiet area, perfect for a break away. The property is very well equipped with every modern convenience and private parking. We will definitely stay in Carrigaline Beag again.

The best thing about the property was its location - ideally placed for exploring the rings of beara and Kerry and for popping into town for a meal/drink. The main problem was that the boiler wasn't working. With the help of Jer we limped through the week until it was finally fixed the day before we left. Other comments: the kitchen cupboards contained random bits of food. It is helpful to have basics only e.g. salt and pepper, but there was so much stuff it was hard to get ours in. for the price we would have expected everything to be up together e.g. various bulbs not working, lampshade missing.

Very disappointed with the dirt of this house. It in no way matched the presentation from the website. Filthy bed covers, smelly T towels, dead wood lice and cobwebs in the living room, are examples of the issues with the house. The whole place needs a deep clean and uplift to match what Kenmare Rentals are selling to unsuspecting holiday makers. Shame.

There was a problem with the hot water heater and the owner was very diligent in getting it corrected. We were given compensation for the time we were without hot water without having to request it. We felt the owner really stepped up and owned the problem and got it fixed as soon as the exact cause was determined. The property was within easy walking distance to pubs, shops and restaurants. We were very satisfied with our stay.

A comfortable, clean and relaxing house, in a quiet location, yet only a two minute walk from the centre of the town.The town of Kenmare itself is small but with a vibrant atmosphere, a number of pubs and classy restaurantsand set in beautiful and accessible countryside.George Healy.

We have spent one week in this nice and comfortable house. As we had arrived by plane, we were very happy that the owner had provided us with a lot of useful things so that we only had to buy food and drinks for our stay.

Very nice place to stay, excellent location for exploring Kenmare, Kerry and Bearra !Thats it folks,! I need no more characters. Less is more in cases like this!

Lovely little house near all amenities The house was well furnished and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay . I will come back again for sure.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Carrig Beag. The cottage is in an excellent central location, allowing easy access to Kenmares shops, bars, eateries and other attractions, notably archeaology.Its a comfortable cottage for a family or one or two couples.There are, we feel, some details of the arrangements that need sorting out -A few of the houses lightbulbs were dud when we arrived. It was not easy to find any stock of spares in the house, and, eventually, when we did, we found them in three places - confusing! I had to go out and purchase one replacement myself.There were no instructions on how to operate the DVD player and we failed to get it to work.And, by 2014, such a cottage should really be equipped with a digital TV which would make the operating of it a lot easier.We got very cold on our first night and for some of the next day because the boiler cut out. Eventually, I managed to fix it by re-pressurising the system. That had to be carried out once or twice each day for the rest of our stay.We went looking for Jer in the bar each day to report the boiler and left a message with the bar staff. It was disappointing not to find him in the bar during our stay as the paperwork had said.

The two story town home was great for our day trips to various areas. The town itself is great. Plenty to see and do right in town. Close by pubs with some good traditional music. The only thing that was a bit odd was having to read the meters to pay for the gas and electric separately at the end of our stay. The rate was reasonable so I'm surprised they just don't work it into the over all price. We would recommend the location to anyone thinking about traveling in the southern portion of the island.
