Richard and Maggie’s place epitomizes the Airbnb experience. The bedsit is clean, comfortable, and stocked with breakfast items and Maggie’s soda bread. Richard and Maggie themselves absolutely make the experience. They are kind, generous, and welcoming hosts, with good advice for things to do in Kerry, and even better conversation.

We had a great stay at Maggie and Richard's - it is a quiet place with nice views of the estuary, yet very close to Sneem village and the Ring of Kerry. Maggie and Richard were very friendly and helpful and we would have loved to talk to them more if we had had the time - for instance, they offered to give us a lift, to join them for drinks, and helped us fix a damaged hiking boot. Although the listing says that breakfast is not provided, there were butter, jam/marmelade, milk, fruit and tea waiting for us in addition to the promised soda bread.

Richard and Maggie's place is simple and cozy. It's a great spot for touring the Ring of Kerry and the view from their place is gorgeous. One can walk to town, but it's a bit of a hike on a wooded single lane road. I would suggest a flashlight! Richard and Maggie are also very friendly and accommodating.

Stunning scenery, peaceful and natural. Maggie and Richard were great hosts and it felt like being with good friends. There is lots to do in the area. I highly recommended this place.

It' s been a pleasure being at Maggie and Richard's home. I was searching for a quiet place and this one it is. Maggie and Richard gave me very precise indications to get there and were very nice in welcoming me at my arrival . The place is clean and with a lot of space

Such a lovely stay! The location of the cottage was absolutely breathtaking and Richard and Maggie were so welcoming. Beautiful hikes, great pubs, and a lively town made our stay great! 5/5 stars!

Richard and Maggie are simply the most wonderful people ever! They truly felt more like family than hosts by the time we left. Maggie's homemade bread which she provides upon arrival is amazing, and Richard gave us instructions to our favorite restaurants and hikes of the whole trip. The place itself is so cozy and comfortable, and the town has a plethora of delightful pubs and hiking. I couldn't recommend this wonderful place more!

Richard and Maggie were great. hosts. Very clean and comfortable 5 star and great value. Willie and Violet

This is a beautiful,spacious and modern house in the centre of Sneem with walking distance to all amenities in the area. When we arrived, we were delighted to find milk and biscuits in the fridge. Attention to detail was superb from start to finish. Gerry was efficient and easy to deal with. Will be back again.

Absolutely fantastic experience here. The owners left a few welcome treats for us (milk, tea, fruit) etc which were very welcome after a long drive down and saved a trip to the shops late at night. The house was very comfortable, warm, great showers and lovely views. We dealt with Cathleen and she was exceptionally helpful and really made us feel at home. Loads of space inside and comfy couches. Thanks a million!

kathleen (gerry's mom) was here to welcome us when we arrived. she provided all the information needed to use the house and organized our days there. the house is very spacious, fully equiped, clean, quiet. the region of the kerry's peninsula is absolutely wonderfull. it have been our favorite place in Ireland during our visite. Sneem is a charming village with all want you need

Wir sind mit zwei Päarchen durch Irland gereist und fanden den Aufenthalt in Sneem besonders herausragend. Das Haus bot allen erdenklichen Komfort und war sehr sauber. Die freundliche Begrüßung durch Kathleen ebenso wie die kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten (Blumen, Plätzchen, Joghurt und Obst) und die Nähe zum guten Pub fanden wir äußerst angenehm. Wir hatten das große Glück das Sommerfest in Sneem erleben zu dürfen. So war es alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Aufenthalt.

Gerry was an excellent host. This vacation was our first using Airbnb and I rated 3 out of the four places we went to as excellent. However Gerry's home was more excellent than the others. First, he was by far the fastest to respond to any communications we had with him. The others were good too,but he was the fastest. Second, the home was the cleanest and nicest of all the places we had been. Many parts of the home seemed brand new. Gerry's home is located in a small town so it was peaceful, but the pub's were hopping if one wants to go out. And it is located on the Ring of Kerry. We enjoyed our stay immensely.

Very happy stay. Great House and garden, everything you could require. Very central location, Gerry very good, clear communicator and his mum very pleasant. The beds were great, very comfortable, and it suited us perfectly. The kitchen was ideal and again all we could ask for. Left to our own devices and trusted , much appreciated.

Fantastic house, extremely well equipped. Worked out perfectly for our family. Would highly recommended the house & Gerry was a great host.

Among all the places we stayed in in Ireland, Gerry's townhouse was our favorite. It was extremely clean and very spacious. It was perfect for our family of 5 adults. Gerry was also quick to respond to any questions we had. Sneem is a very small town, but we were able to explore the Ring of Kerry easily from Sneem. I would highly recommend Gerry's place!

We stayed at Fergals house as a group of 8 including 2 young children. The house was perfect for all of us, plenty of room and having the ensuites was such a bonus. This was one of my favourites airbnb stays and would highly recommend, especially for groups or large families.

Fergals Haus war super. Eine herrliche Lage in Sneem. Für uns einer der schönsten Orte am Ring of Kerry. Das Haus ist schick, komplett ausgestattet. Auch für mehr als 4 Tage eine gute Homebase. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen. Die Abwicklung war absolut unkompliziert. Eine absolute Empfehlung.

This home is just divine. Despite how lovely the Kerry Ring is, we found it hard to leave the house! The sun room provide spectacular views, lovely light, and cozy couches. The house as a whole is immaculate and really well-designed. We had everything we could possibly need and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Now the only challenge is finding a reason to come back :)

Das Haus in Sneem war wirklich super! Wir hatten 4!!! tolle Bäder, und 4 sehr saubere Zimmer mit genügend Handtüchern. Die Kommunikation mit Miranda, der Person vor Ort, klappte prima. Wir wollten gar nicht mehr weg. Die Lage ist etwas versteckt und so hat man praktisch keinen Nachbarn. Ein Auto ist allerdings unbedingt nötig.

This is a luxurious, modern house, tastefully furnished and fully equipped with anything you might need. There was plenty of space for our party of 7 (two families with teenager daugthers). Everything is brand new and perfectly functional. The whole house was perfectly clean and tidy. Very good value for money. The owner was out of town, but the house manager has been very nice and helpful - in fact, we did not need much help!

We really enjoyed staying in this house. It had lots of room and was in very nice condition and very pretty. The location is serene and is a perfect getaway for anyone who loves nature and wants a break from the city. Fergal was very responsive to my emails before I got there with questions about sneem and the house.

Great home in the heart of County Kerry! Exceeded our expectations. Great place to relax for a few days.

A great place to be. Its awesome that every bedroom has their own bath an toilet! Everything was clean and also the organisation was perfect.

Ideal house for a large family; very practical and clean with all mod cons. Sneem is a lovely base from which to explore both the Iveragh and the Beara peninsulas. Ray is a very reliable host always available to answer any question.

Great property, very helpful host, in constant communication, and everything run smoothly. Great stay, highly recommended.

Très bien. Mais attention frais supplément pour l'électricité (en plus du tarif airbnb).

This house was pretty perfect. House clean and spacious. Bedrooms modern and comfortable. Close to number of beeches and Killarney park. Everything spot on. Highly recommended

Lovely clean and well mainrained property.

Great house for our stay in Sneem, ideally located and great hospitality from all the local. Thanks Ray

We had a perfect stay at the Riverside B&B. An and Frans were very friendly and made us feel right at home. Thanks again.

This is a lovely house exactly as described by Lilly. The location is wonderful and Sneem is a great little town. We had an enjoyable and relaxing time during our stay. Many thanks.

Bronwyn and Thomas were very prompt, professional and helpful. The house was as described, although the setting and gardens are more beautiful than in the pictures. The home is simply decorated, but everything in the kitchen worked and we were very comfortable. Good value for the price.

We spent two nights in the house and had a great time. Hosts very kind and welcoming. House clean and comfortable, in a peaceful location, perfect to enjoy a barbaque in the garden. We loved the surroundings and the villages nearby.

The Kerry Family House was great, it was a fantastic spot for touring the Ring of Kerry and we were very welcome and really enjoyed the stay.

The Kerry Family House is located very close to Sneem and about 25 minutes to Kenmare on one of the main roads in a peaceful location (a bit difficult to find if you do not have a GPS - which is recommended you get so that satellite coordinates can be plugged in). Though I never got to meet Thomas, he was very prompt in responding to all my inquiries about the house and getting around. Bronwyn, Thomas' wife, came to meet my fiancee and two other friends upon our arrival on the later side to show us the house and give us the keys which was considerate. We were going to a friend's wedding and Bronwyn and Thomas left a long list of taxi numbers in Kenmare and Sneem for us to call, which was considerate. This house is good for large groups of people traveling together, as it has four bedrooms and good space, and who envision being out of the house all day. A car is essential for getting around. One thing Travelers should know about this listing is that the house is very basic. Though we didn't mind shopping for some essential household items, it would have been nice to have coffee/tea/sugar/paper towels/hand soap in upstairs bathroom/laundry soap/etc available to us from the host for our stay.

Une belle rencontre, un coin superbe, une chambre très agréable. Quel plaisir!

Miranda was a wonderful host. Her home is in beautiful location. The room was warm, clean and cozy.

Wonderful Family, beautiful home amazing scenery, very friendly dogs on arrival if your a lover of dogs. Could not meet nicer people and I would highly recommend a few nights stay in Miranda's Home. :)

Miranda was a lovely warm and friendly host. She is always available and very accommodating to her guests. Our bedroom and en-suite were immaculate. We would definitely stay again.

Our stopover in Sneem was fun and we thank Miranda for her warm welcome and hospitality. The country surroundings and views were great. The room was comfortable and there was sufficient space. The only drawback was that the double bed could only be accessed from one side. Miranda advised on dinner venues and we were very happy with the local hotel (where her husband is chef) and had the best fish and chips in years. We opted for the full Irish breakfast at a small extra cost and it was very lavish, fresh and tasty. One problem with a room under the eaves is that tall people will bump their heads.

Perfect place. Very clean and welcoming. Miranda is lovely.

Clean and comfy - warm welcome. As described.

Miranda fût une hôte parfaite. La maison et la chambre sont très bien. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour. Je recommande.

Merci pour ce nid douillet au bout du monde, nous avons passer un excellent séjour en famille dans le Kerry. La petite ville de sneem est très accueillante. Jérôme & Séverine

Grace's landing was the perfect home base for our family and another to share while visiting spots in and around the Ring of Kerry. The home is very spacious and situated in a private spot that is nice for allowing kids to run around and explore a bit. The main squares of town are just a few minutes by car from the house and Sneem has beautiful public gardens (one with a small hedge maze), in addition to pubs, shops, and a bakery. Ron was an excellent host. Check in was very easy and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and a few grocery essentials. The house was very clean and there were a lot of games, puzzles, and books for us to enjoy. We really appreciated the chance to stay at Grace's landing and would highly recommend it. It's especially nice for folks that like to settle into one place or stay for a bit before moving on.

This was the most unique location I've ever stayed in so far. A beautiful house with more space and amenities than one could hope for. Add in the seclusion of being in the middle of the farm, and you got a very relaxing experience. Ron provided good directions to the house. Nevertheless, be warned you will be in the middle of nowhere (which is good) and will feel like you are lost until you get there. I will certainly stay here again if given the chance.

We had a great stay in Ron's house, a beautiful house in a beautiful setting. There was plenty of room for the eight of us. The directions were great, the communication with Ron and Carol who looks after the house for Ron was perfect. Our biggest complaint was that the house is so popular that we couldn't stay any longer as it was booked out for the rest of the month. Just a few bits of advice, it's a 15 minute drive from Sneem up to the house and it is definitely the narrowest boreen I've ever driven on in Ireland, and I live here, if you do meet a car which is rare then one of you have to reverse a fair bit to find a spot to pull in. But it's rare that you meet anyone because there's only four houses and a sheep farmer that use the road. Also there is an iron but no ironing board so have your clothes prepared before arriving. And it's mentioned in the help book in the house but if like us you're gasping for a glass of water when you arrive be sure to use the small narrow tap on the sink as this is filtered whereas the main tap is from the river. I also took the walk up the mountain behind the house and I wouldn't recommend it, it's turf ground for the most part so you just constantly sink and lose your boots, very frustrating and I've climbed mountains before. Other than those tiny points I couldn't recommend it more and we will definitely be back.

Our stay at Rons house was absolutely wonderful. The property was gorgeous and the house was meticulous. It exceeded our expectations and provided for a peaceful and relaxing stay. We only wished we could've stayed longer! Thank you Ron!

Hi Ron, Thanks for having us. It was great weekend and we realy feel like at home. Great spot and lovely house. Would love to come back again. I'd realy recomend Ron's property to anyone who loves nice views and nice and speacious accomodation. Best regards, Bart

Beautiful house, great view! The house was spacious and comfortable. Ron (the owner) and Carol (the person who greeted us) were both very helpful and replied quickly to all my queries. There were board games, books, cable TV, DVDs in case the weather gets too bad to go out or if you decide to chill out at the house a little after a long hike in the countryside. Kerry is truly beautiful; bushes of hydrangeas and fuchsias and many other flowers offered a spectacular scenery during our walks and drives. Can't wait to come back!

This home was clean, kid friendly and had the most breath taking views! We did not want to leave and have already made plans to come back. Highly recommended to anyone!!!

Nice place, clean, good amenities.

Clean and spacious house, very convenient for a large family/group. Good location for the Ring of Kerry.

Me and my family had a great time at Rosalies place, it is especially recommended for large groups since there really is a lot of space

La casa di Rosalie è molto luminosa, pulitissima e molto comoda per 10 persone (tutti adulti). Rosalie è stata gentilissima nelle sue risposte e ci ha dato indicazioni molto precise per raggiungere la casa da Kenmare. Molto apprezzati anche i suggerimenti sulle passeggiate a piedi da fare nei dintorni (portate le scarpe da trekking). Assolutamente consigliata.

We had a great time in sneem and ballinskelligs. The house was a great size, plenty of bathrooms. Ideal if two families were staying as there were effectively two separate areas within the house itself. No issues with hot water, it heated up very quickly. Everything worked properly and oven and hob very easy to use. Plenty of information left in house for us to read about the area and the house itself. Host and cleaner very accessible before and during our stay. Cleaner even offered to assist us to find house if we ran in to further difficulty. The house is 10 minutes from sneem. A car is needed for access to house as it is off the beaten track.

Casa molto carina e accogliente in un angolo d'Irlanda veramente incantevole. Panorama molto bello e posto molto tranquillo. Ideale per chi visita in auto la contea di Kerry.

The house was in a beautiful quiet and relaxing location. Her description of the house was very good as were her direction to get to it. The area is stunning and we will be back for a longer stay in the future

We stayed in this house for a Christmas family weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. The housekeeper had set up 3 Christmas trees around the house for our stay. There was also a Christmas hamper of goodies in the kitchen! They were so helpful in the run up to our stay, answering our queries re the house, kitchen facilities etc so we could prepare for the Christmas weekend meals. They also put extra cots / moses baskets in the house for our youngest family members. The house is very well kitted out, like a warm, cosy family home. The surrounding area is beautiful and the location is ideal in terms of walks, places to visit. We would definitely consider this home for another family holiday.

Staying at the Valley of the Hare was really special and I can say it truly felt like we were at home. The house is perfectly situated for those looking for a peaceful escape in the beautiful Irish countryside. There is an abundance of nature trails and scenic sites around Sneem and the surrounding areas. The house was beautifully decorated and had all the essentials (i.e. an abundance of pots and pans, serving dishes, cooking spices, DVDs, shampoo, etc.) to make you feel at home. Susan kindly provided us with a welcome package which was great since we didn't have to rush to the grocery store for breakfast supplies the next morning. She also provided me with detailed directions to the house prior to our arrival which were very easy to follow evidenced by the fact that we didn't get lost! Susan popped around to check that we had settled in and to answer any questions. Otherwise she left the family and I to our own devices which was great. I have no complaints about our stay and would highly recommend the Valley of the Hare to future visitors to Kerry County.

The location, cottage and overall experience was quite simply, stunning! Susan has developed a hidden treasure and we feel fortunate to have found it and enjoyed its "sparkle" over the Easter weekend. Whilst the location is relatively remote, it adds to the overall "rugged Ireland" experience but within an oasis of luxury. We would highly recommend this for couples or families who want to get away for a thoroughly relaxing (and luxurious) trip away from the stress of the city or life in general.

The Valley of the Hare was truly a magnificent experience. After a harrowing ride in the rain from Dublin and a relatively straightforward ride up the country road from Sneem, upon opening the cattle gate we came to what looked like a quaint cottage on a rise. We entered and found a thoroughly updated 21st century farm house with every feature we could desire. Walking around taking in the house, every room elicited smiles of amazement. The upstairs bedroom, reached by a lovely spiral stairway, looked out over the valley to the eastern hills and beyond, a beautiful scene. The en-suite bath was larger than our hotel room in Dublin and had a huge soaking tub and a shower. The large downstairs bedroom and bath, in the original 200 to 400 year old farmhouse was comparable and both provided all the privacy we could want. The third bedroom, which we didn't use also had its own bath. The kitchen was large enough for multiple cooks, fully-stocked and delightful, with a huge cooking stove and multiple ovens, large fridge, microwave, etc. Susan had thoughtfully provided sufficient supplies for our first morning's breakfast. The lounge with its comfy couches, wood stove and satellite TV, had an immense sliding glass door through which we had a panoramic view of the valley, the Beara Peninsula and Kenmare River. The place was unbelievable. We arrived in lambing season and were greeted by a sweet sheepdog and the sight and sound of ewes busily grazing to keep up with the feeding demands of their cavorting lambs. The bleating of the lambs and sheep was the only sign of the farmer who came by in early morning and evening to provide supplemental feed (it was a cold and late spring) for the flock. We were able to get up close with the sheep and lambs on the Sneem-Fermoyle hiking trail which was literally right outside the door. The well-marked trail provided an excellent perspective of the countryside, with foot-bridges crossing several of the tributaries of the Sneem river. We went to the village of Sneem and stopped for a pleasant lunch at Breens Riverside Cafe. We discovered that the proprietors (the Breens) had owned the farmhouse where we were staying and grown up there, a family with eight children in about a third of the space we were staying in. There was also a small grocery and a butcher in the village where we were able to obtain all our cooking needs without excessive travel. The Valley of the Hare provided a peaceful and serene break from our hectic touring schedule. And it is appropriately named, we saw several hares running in the fields. if you're looking for a relaxing respite or home base where you can take the time to paint a watercolor, relax with a good book, or take an invigorating hike in the countryside, it can't be beat. Many thanks to Susan for being such a pleasant and responsive host.

We arrived to the most beautiful remote farmhouse in western Ireland. Susan and Ralph were amazing hosts who were there when you needed them, but respectful of your privacy and making you feel like the home was yours. The house was better than the photos. There's no way to fully capture on film the simple but, stunning attention to detail that was put into the design of their home. The story behind the restoring of this homestead was not only one of passion for the property and its ancient buildings, but one that shows their commitment and love of Ireland and their community. The house was perfectly appointed and comfortable In every way, cooking, dining, relaxing, sleeping and mapping your next day's journey. The back corridor with its full wall map of SW Ireland, with its heated slate floors was my favorite place to sit with a Jameson and map out our next journey. Susan and Ralph went over and above as hosts, helping us navigate the landscape and neighboring area, share history of the town and the land, as well as problem solve as we managed to find ourselves in car trouble. I will recommend the valley of the hare to all my friends and look forward to a return extended stay in the coming years.

Incredible place. The photos really do not capture how nice it is. A really fantastic house with views to match. Our trip was short, but staying here made all the difference: we had a wonderful time. Very grateful to Susan for going out of her way to help us find it on our way in (we arrived at night). A friendly, charming, and welcoming host.

Situated in the most beautiful part of Ireland. Secluded but very near the charming village of Sneem. Experience the Irish way of life in a traditional farmhouse with all of the amenities.

It's difficult to write a review of Valley of the Hare without falling into hyperbole: very genuinely, I doubt there's a better house, better location or better host anywhere on Airbnb. The house is stunning. From the outside, it looks like a typical, traditional farmhouse and outbuildings, but it's completely modern inside with a huge amount of care, thought and creativity put into every detail. Very comfortable and very stylish, but in an understated way and, even though it's been modernised, there's still a traditional 'cottage' feel to the interior with loads of natural light and natural elements throughout it. The most striking feature, though, is the view: completely clear, unspoilt view across the valley towards Kenmare Bay. You could easily spend hours just watching the sky and light change. Aside from the house itself, the hosts are really great: charming, generous, relaxed – just genuinely nice people. All in all, this is a unique and special house, and we're already looking forward to returning.

The valley of the hare was an extraordinary Accomodation with stunning views of snowcapped mountains in the distance and sheep greeting you in the yard. Not only are the sheep there to say hi we were lucky enough to be greeted by a hare on the drive in! The kitchen is equipped to host an edition of Iron Chef. The property is part of a hiking loop that passes through the town of Sneem which is a valuable part of staying at this place. the bathtubs were an exquisite way to end the day before a lucious night of sleep.

Het huisje ligt op een super mooie afgelegen locatie.. de weg er naartoe is alleen al de moeite waard. Schattige cottage met lieve eigenaren!

Made us feel right at home. Shared the place with all the livestock, Gordon the baby goat especially, who loved to snack on our trousers! Nice touches on arrival; fire was set, fresh eggs on table. Very comfortable little cottage.

Wir hatten eine großartige Zeit in dem schönen, liebevoll eingerichteten Cottage. Die Lage ist einmalig, mit Blick auf die Berge von Kerry, unglaublich ruhig und erholsam. Direkt hinter dem Haus sind wir in die Bergwelt gewandert, wo man grandiose Blicke über die Berge bis zum Meer hat. In dem eigenen großen Garten, nebenan weiden die Schafe, kann man wunderbar entspannen. Susan ist eine so sympatische und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, mit vielen Tipps für die Umbebung. Es gab frische Eier und Holz für den Ofen, sodass auch die Abende sehr gemütlich waren. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit, hoffentlich irgendwann länger als drei Tage.

We had a great stay at Bridget's Cottage. The cottage is clean, cosy, Gary and Sue are great hosts and their good reviews are totally deserved ! We are looking forward to going back.

Bridget's Cottage is a wonderful place. We stayed there over Christmas and it is perfect if you are looking for a very romantic hideout in the beautiful county Kerry. So if you plan a vacation away from busy everyday life (and also from broadband internet) this place will be perfect for you. We enjoyed our stay there very much and found everything was as described, and will happily visit again if we have the oppurtunity. Also Sue and Gary are very friendly hosts and were always available, if we needed something or had a question. Thanks again for a great vacation.

Ongelooflijk prettig verblijf. Echt een aanrader! Willen zeker weer een keer terug!!

Beautiful, well equipped cottage in a wonderful location.

We had a great stay beautiful location - couldn't fault a thing

Annie's cottage was great! We love the location, we loved Paddy the donkey, the house was super cute, loved that the beds had electric blankets for the chilly nights. The house did not have internet, which messed us up for day-trip planning but we may not have realized if that was listed. Highly recommend this little rural getaway.

The four of us loved Annie's cottage. A gem in the middle of beautiful scenery. The cottage was lovely and cosy. Been on the ring of kerry an added bonus. Will recommend this to anyone and we will definitely be back again
