Traditional Irish Stone Cottage
PLEASE NOTE ASH COTTAGE IS NOT FOR RENT INTO THE FUTURE SO,PLEASE DO NOT BOOK. REGARDS
Ash Cottage dates back to 1914. It is situated on an acre of private land. A complete renovation and restoration has been done to the cottage using materials sourced from old buildings & historical sites from all over Ireland to retain its character. Limestone sourced from a local quarry & Knocklong Creamery, cills from Killarney Railway Station, sleepers from the old Galway railway line & Military House Curragh, flooring from Donnybrook Hospital, church pew & notice board from Dunamaise Church and 150 year old Killaloe & Balmoral slates are just a few items used. It has been modernised with new appliances, new windows and doors. The decor has a rustic/modern feel with plenty of character and a focus on comfort and restfulness.
With its open plan concept living/dining area & double glazed large french windows it has a spacious and bright feel while retaining the charm of traditional stone cottage with its sash windows and stable front door & solid stone walls.
The kitchen has all conveniences with a large island unit. White subway tiles and black granite countertop create a modern feel while the rustic furniture and natural wood floors create a traditional cottage feel.
The dining area has a large 6ft dining table and plenty of seating area along the old church pew.
Sash windows on each side of the sitting room creates a bright but cosy space to relax, there is a large L shaped sofa with a wood burning stove and a flat screen satellite channel tv. High speed broadband/wifi is available or board games supplied.
Other things to note The wetroom style bathroom, solid wood flooring & wide internal doors in the cottage makes it wheelchair accessible throughout.

Owner never responded.
This was an awful experience. The owner never communicated, never sent any information, never gave us check-in information, so we were left stranded in Ireland with no place to stay and had to scramble to find last-minute accommodations. Vrbo customer service was also terrible, as they didn't respond and offered no help. We're still awaiting a refund or any response. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

Romantic hideaway
This cottage is amazing which is very tastefully decorated with all mod cons you could possible need for a relaxing stay. The owner was very kind and went out of his way to ensure we had a great stay . It was nice to read all the history of the cottage . I am very fussy and like holiday homes to be of a good standard this cottage most definitely exceeded our expectations . Cant wait to return 5 stars

Home away from home
The location was very nice. We were looking for a cottage we could sit back and relax in and this fit the bill. We did not want to be in a city the country setting here was perfect. We hope to come back in the summer time when we are able.

A true gem!
We travelled Europe and this was THE best lodging we had. It was comfortable, full of character and provided all the necessities! We chose an out of the way place (not on the city) so we could travel in three directions outwards for day trips to north, south then south east. It was perfect! Cleanliness is essential for me and it was over the top! The owner was kind and considerate of our comfort.

Just what we were looking for!
A rebuilt Irish Cottage on our way to the Ring of Kerry. Just 1 hour away from Shannon Airport gave us time to visit Bunratty before heading the the cottage. Be sure ot visit Foley's Pub for a quick bite.

An amazing place to stay
The Ash Cottage is as beautiful inside as it is quaint outside. Clean, comfortable, with everything you need. Tom has done a wonderful job creating this space that feels like home in a traditional Irish stone cottage. My family’s only regret was that our stay was not long enough—hope to return someday. We loved it!

Perfect location and very accommodating!
Absolutely excellent stay, with everything we needed to be comfortable away from home! Full kitchen and supplies, extremely comfortable beds, wood for the fireplace, cable tv and wifi, and very clean accommodations! We even arrived to find sweet treats and milk in the fridge, and coffee in the cupboard ready to go! Arriving after normal hours wasn't a problem, as access was readily available.
When we had a questions the owner was quick to respond.
Overall VERY pleased with our stay, and would highly recommend to others!
