We very much enjoyed our stay, the house and the area. Directly located at the Ring of Kerry, the location is great for day-trips to various touristic spots, including the Dingle Island. The house is spacious and provides the comfort to feel like home e.g. fireplaces. The view is spectacular….Ireland as its best

We are a family of four with two teen boys who stayed in this house for a week in July, 2023. It is in a spectacular setting with an unbelievable view over Dingle Bay and across to Dingle peninsula, with sheep dotting the hillsides in the distance. We were at peace sitting in the Adirondack chairs on the stone deck, looking at the view, smelling the sea air and faintly hearing sheep bleating in the distance. As for the house itself, we loved it for its design, space, comfortable beds and amenities. The living/dining space is open to the kitchen. The kitchen was amazingly stocked with anything you could possibly need. There were two loft spaces, and two other bedrooms, two bathrooms. Everyone in the family spread out and enjoyed every corner of the house. We even cozied up by a turf fire on a particularly cold/wet (yes, in July- it happens). There are three fire places in the house. Exploring around the property, we saw ancient stone walls and ruins of a previous stone farm/cottage. This place was pure magic. In the weeks leading up to our stay, the owner, Tad, promptly answered our every question. On site, Eileen, the house keeper was welcoming, friendly, helpful and very responsive. The beach and pier is a short walk away. My 16 year old fished for hours on the rocks out on the point and on the pier, catching mackerel, and pollock. A Thai restaurant in a garden setting is just up the next driveway over from the house. Our magical week went by in a flash. We’ll be back!

We don’t know that we have ever stayed in a place where the view out every window is a landscape painting. Every detail of the house is so thoughtfully designed and the gardens delightful. If we take the best attributes of our home, the hills of East TN and the Atlantic coast of North Carolina, it is Kells Bay in Ireland. Our host and the folks of Kells Bay were so welcoming and helpful during our stay at the Lawrence abode in Kells Bay! Bill, Denise, Jan, Missy and Isaiah

This house is in a fantastic spot on the coast in Kells, overlooking Kells Bay. It feels remote and quiet but is also a short distance from many activities including Kells Bay Gardens (with a superb Thai restaurant) which is only 100 yards from the end of the driveway. The house is an architectural gem — every window perfectly placed for a view. It is somewhat quirky in its cobble of heating systems, shower pressure pumps, etc but in a way that makes you feel you are in a special and unusual place (if a 2010 builder house is what you like, the house may not be the right fit for you). Tad, the owner was a pleasure to deal with and provided a terrific guide to the house and area, and Eileen the caretaker was very helpful. Great experience that we hope to enjoy again.

This is a hidden gem on the coast of Kerry. A charming hideaway with great access to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula. The hosts Tad and Vicky were extremely warm , welcoming and responsive to any questions we had. Eileen the housekeeper ensured we had everything we needed and Agnes a neighbour who runs her own B&B reached out to us with fresh eggs and bread and on one evening a traditional home cooked Irish dinner. The whole experience was magical and we look forward to returning to this home from home.

Wir haben eine Woche in diesem liebevoll ausgestatteten Haus verbracht und den tollen Blick und die Annehmlichkeiten im Haus sehr genossen. Ein individuelles Haus in schöner, ruhiger Lage, aber dennoch gut gelegen am Ring of Kerry. Wir hätten gern noch mehr Zeit in der Gegend verbracht und waren Tad dankbar für die guten Tipps in der Gegend. Gerne wieder!

Wir haben als Familie mit 3 Kindern (8, 5 und 2 Jahren) Anfang August für 2 Wochen in Kerry Urlaub gemacht und das Haus als Ausgangspunkt für Besichtigungen rund um Kerry und Dingle gewählt. Das Cottage liegt alleine auf einem großzügigen Grundstück in Hanglage über der Bucht von Kells. Die Bucht mit schönem kleinen Strand ist nach ca. 200m Fußweg schnell zu erreichen. Das Grundstück selbst bietet zwei schöne Terrassen, die bei schönem Wetter zum Verweilen einladen. Das Haus selbst ist großzügig und offen mit großen Räumen und Loft im charmanten künstlerischen Stil der 70iger Jahre gebaut. Die Einrichtung ist liebevoll mit etlichen Kunstgegenständen und ländlichen Werkzeugen dekoriert, aber dennoch vollständig und praktisch eingerichtet. Besonders die Küche bietet alles um eigenes Kochen angenehm zu machen. Spülmaschine und Waschmaschine mit Trockner sind vorhanden. Zwei Badezimmer mit Duschmöglichkeiten sowie die zwei Schlafzimmer bieten genügend Platz. Der Vermieter, wenn auch nicht persönlich anwesend, ist stets erreichbar und hat sich rührend um unser Wohl gekümmert. Zum Beispiel organisierte er ein Babybett für unseren Kleinsten sowie ein Treppenschutzgitter für die Lofttreppe. Die Ansprechpartner vor Ort waren äußerst herzlich und standen mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Als einzigen Verbesserungsvorschlag würden wir Filzpantoffeln empfehlen, da wir den Steinfußboden bei kühlerem Wetter als recht empfunden haben. Insgesamt hatten wir einen schönen Aufenthalt und würden es jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

Our family (with 3 children from 7 to 12 years) spent 10 days in this lovely Irish home at Kells Bay. Our family felt very comfortable in this cosy home. Our children loved playing outside in the huge garden, while we parents sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the breathtaking view. The kitchen is very well equipped ans spacious, the cottage is lovely decorated (lots of art) and the very suitable for a family. The next seaside is only a few minutes to walk. The cottage is situated very good, so that we were able to do many different day trips. The caretakers were very helpful and gave us a very warm welcoming. We spent a very relaxing holiday einjoying the house and the breathtaking scenery. We can highly recommend this holiday house. We ourselves are looking forward coming here again - it is heaven on earth...
