We spent our entire 2 week vacation at Cottage Mary Rose as our home base from which to explore the southwest part of Ireland. It was perfect! Genuine Ireland at its best. The cottage itself is beautiful, cozy, a sanctuary to retreat to after a full day of touring. The manager and caretaker are amazing and so welcoming. The gardens surrounding the cottage and the creek beside it add even more beauty and serenity to this very special haven. We’ve left a part of our hearts here in this lovely place and hope to return soon!

Fantastic stay So much room,everything spotless Lovely stay for families Jacuzzi was lovely

If you want a traditional Irish cottage, this is perfect. Not new and modern, but charming and cozy. Country setting, but near town.

Our stay here was wonderful. This cottage has been around for a long time and we appreciated staying in a little piece of history. The cottage felt like our home away from home. We loved the huge deck in the back as well as the hot tub! Great communication with property managers & hosts.

We loved this vrbo, it was an authentic Irish cottage. Communication with the host and the local people who help take care of the cottage was great. Timmy the groundskeeper was extremely helpful upon our arrival at the location. Very spaceous, with a large fireplace, full kitchen, washer, dryer. Lots of history and photos of the cottage over the years. Central to Killarney and Dingle. Our favourite!!!

We [family of 6, 3 adults, 3 kids (12, 10, 8)] recently traveled across all of Ireland. We had 3 nights booked at this home. Once arriving, we were instructed to park across the street, and to be careful crossing as its a busy street. That should have been our first red flag. We parked at the CEMETARY (2nd red flag), and entered the property. The grounds are quite lovely, not at all a place for a kids to play however. There is a running stream behind the property, and no safe guard to keep the kids from falling down the ravene. Watch your head when entering through the front door, its a low clearance. There are 2 bathrooms, one where there was no functioning light, and the other with a shower the perfect size for our young kids, maybe. There was very little to no space to put any of our luggage. The house is maxed out on decor, leaving no room to wiggle. We knew immediately that we would not be staying, as none of the kids were happy, and 2 of the adults were quite displeased. So we contacted the owner, William, and asked if we could receive a refund for 2 of the nights and our cleaning fee. He offered to return the cleaning fee and nothing else and requested we not leave a review. He has since opted to not reply to me. This home would offer a rural Ireland experience, and I would not recommend it for small kids. We left within an hour of arriving, and didnt let this one hiccup in our trip affect our plans.

We loved our stay- nice location for our day trips, and the hot tub was ideal for unwinding and relaxing when we were done running around!

Book this cottage if you want to experience real old world Ireland. Absolutely amazing. Just landed in Dallas Texas and missing it already. Will definitely recommend this cottage to friends and family.
