Bay View House

Everything. Amazing quiet rural location, and a really well equipped house. Faultless in every way, even down to the deer that visited every day.

Nothing to dislike.

The location was beautiful. Very peaceful. The house was well equipped and spacious

The water pressure and drain in the shower was not very good. There was no advertised hot tub

The house is in very quiet rural area with cows and sheep grazing near by and the odd deer wandering past the window as long as you don't mind a short drive into civilization

the main bathroom had a drain that did not work properly resulting in the shower flooding bathroom needs a shower door to keep water contained

Loved the sweeping views without another house in sight, yet so close to the vibrant town of Kenmare. Great space for shared activities and wished I had my yoga mat as the large glass doors and spacious living areas would make an excellent meditation space.

There were a few fixtures wobbly and are showing use, but everything worked well.

location and views, cleanliness

nothing at all!

We bought our own groceries for breakfast. But there were tea bags, coffee sachets, sugar etc and plenty of utensils, cutlery, cups, glasses, plates etc. The Big room was fantastic, the common big bathroom with bath tub and shower were fabulous. Loved the idea of different colours for each towel, lovely pastel shades all fresh and neatly stacked (usually they are all white) so no fear of a mix up. View from the kitchen, living room was awesome. Washer dryer press was really handy. Beautiful clean neat house and we met the host after our stay of 2 nights, before leaving who was very friendly. Instructions for upstairs and downstairs heating and hot water were clearly given which was good. There was a TV in the living area with cosy sofas. Location was good in the sense it is not far from Killarney and Ring of Kerry which are the main attractions around there. Overall a good experience, with some improvements could be perfect for a holiday with family or friends.

The attached bathroom upstairs had no hot water and we were unable to contact the host to request fixing it. This was annoying as we reached pretty late at night all wrecked after a long drive since morning on our first day and my friends daughter who occupied the room wanted to take a shower. She had to use the downstairs bathroom instead which was just outside my sons bedroom. It was extremely noisy with the slightest of movements and he couldn't sleep for ages and my friend's daughter totally unaware of this took a long shower. This bathroom also had a bad slope, so water kept flowing down creating almost a puddle near the toilet making the mat soaking wet which was really annoying and uncomfortable. Also the location itself was so much in the interiors almost in a forest which was quiet daunting esp at night. With friends, difficult to choose the rooms as only one room was massive and fabulous while others were okayish compared to the one big one. With few improvements this property would be a perfect choice.

Lovely house in a remote location, car would be required Fully equipped kitchen Washing and drying facilities Decor was lovely House was very clean
