Beautiful 4* cottage 5 minutes from Kenmare, Co. Kerry, Ireland

On Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way! A beautiful, modern, extended three bedroomed, self catering rental house only five minutes drive from the bustling market town of Kenmare in the south west of Ireland on the Ring of Kerry.
This self catering vacation cottage, which is in its own grounds of over two acres alongside the Cleady River has a (hidden) waterfall giving the relaxing sound of running water, has all the conveniences you would require on a self catering holiday. This self catering cottage has Wi-Fi, satellite TV, washer, dryer, dishwasher, safe and three bedrooms which sleep up to six (two doubles and one twin). Two bedrooms are en suite with a further bathroom for the third room and a separate guest bathroom with wet room. A cot and high chair can be made available on request at no additional cost. We recently had solar panels and an electric vehicle charger installed.
For those cooler evenings and nights there is an open fire place for burning logs and turf. Relax in the sittingroom with a feature fireplace and stove whilst listening to your music through the BOSE stereo system.
We welcome well behaved house trained pets (small fee applies).
Kenmare is a beautiful heritage town located in Kerry, southwest Ireland. It is about a 2 hour drive from Shannon, 90 mins from Cork and 3.5 hours from Dublin.

Peaceful Irish Cottage in a Beautiful Setting
For a second stay in the past two years, we have found our Irish paradise in this lovely cottage home. The sound of the river nearby and the lovely landscape provided a garden setting. The interior is comfortable and homey. We enjoyed cocktails and cards in the cozy sitting room. The location was perfect for day trips to Killarney National Park, the Rings of Kerry and Beara and the Dingle peninsula. The lovely town of Kenmare provides wonderful dining options with their Michelin restaurants and many other fine options. We look forward to returning to this, our favorite spot in Ireland, in the not too distant future.

We loved this house! It was very private and quiet. Close to town. It was perfect for the four of us. The manager was very attentive to any issues that came up. Convenient place to stay for Killarney NP, Muckross house and the ring of Kerry.

Kenmare getaway
Cready River Cottage was absolutely fabulous. Great location and a very modern property with all the mod cons you could wish for. Wonderful outdoor space with gardens and a bubbling stream. We had lovely breakfasts outside with all the family and the weather was an added bonus. Will definitely rebook in the future.

Lovely Property
The property is wonderful. The house is gorgeous. We used it as a home base for our day excursions. Sometimes two hours back after a long day. My advice would be to make sure you know what your adventure goals are when booking. The town of Kenmare is wonderful. We went every evening for dinner and strolling.

Short 3 Day Stay
Everything was clean, comfortable and cozy. Location was very quiet. Even though we used google maps, and instructions from the owner, we were lost in trying to locate the cottage but a kind neighbor assisted us. (Addresses are not posted on houses or roads in Ireland which is different from America) There was plenty of room for the 4 of us staying, and each had space to move about. It was nice to have a working fireplace to sit next to as well. The rooms are spacious but the beds are firm. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer since we had been traveling around previously. We would stay here again.

Large comfortable house in beautiful surroundings
John was very accommodating. The house is well appointed and while only minutes from Kensale, is down a small road that makes it quite private and quiet. We loved hearing the birds and the stream and nothing else.. Bedrooms are large , beds comfortable. We cooked almost every night and found the kitchen to have all the dishes/pots and pans needed

Wonderful Stay in Beautiful Cleady River Cottage
My husband, Mark and l, along with friends, Larry and Betty Ann, enjoyed a spectacular week long stay in the cottage. The furnishings were warm and welcoming and the house well-equipped with all kitchen, bedroom and bathroom essentials. My favorite room was the sitting room - so inviting for evening cocktails and conversation. The outdoor setting was beautiful, with its manicured lawn and blooming flowers, such as vibrant blue hydrangeas. The backyard was bordered by the ever-flowing Cleady River, providing a serene atmosphere. We enjoyed lovely morning walks long the country road. The location was well situated close to Kenmare, which is a lovely village near the Rings of Kerry and Beara, with a little longer drive to Dingle. The cottage was the perfect base for our day trips. We highly recommend this property, and will look forward to staying there again on a future visit to Ireland.

Amazing Cottage in Kenmare
The whole family including kids, grandparents and Alba our dog loved the cottage. We all want to come back. It was lovely to come back each day to the cottage after exploring different parts of the beautiful Ring of Kerry. We loved the decor (stealing a few ideas), enjoyed sitting outside with a glass of wine, and it was great to have different lounges for everyone to do their thing.

The perfect place to stay
This cottage was perfect for my family. There was a main floor bedroom for my father-in-law, who does not need to do stairs, and twin beds for my kids. The third room was perfect for me and my husband. The cottage is spacious and to me was magical. We cooked in the kitchen, played cards at the kitchen table, did yoga in the large sitting room as well as relaxed there with a glass of wine after dinner. We were close to town, but far enough away with a big yard for the kids to run and play in after a day of adventure or touring. We hope to return someday, maybe for a longer stay!
