    This is a lovely peaceful spot and the gardens are really special. It’s a little out of the way so you definitely need a car. Everything about the accommodation was top quality. Would definitely recommend the Thai food. There were lots of options for breakfast and portions were generous.

    A wonderful location.

    A wonderful location. We stayed in the 'garden room' which was amazing. We arrived during a heat wave and I'm presuming it's because it was an old house, but it was our first night sleeping in a cool room. If u arrive during colder weather there is a stove in the room which I presume can be lit. We had dinner and breakfast in the adjacent restaurant and I would rate it as 10 out 10.

    A beautiful little quiet nook on the western end of the Ring of Kerry. I would love to see the village have a little coffee place or bar/lounge for people to enjoy the lovely setting and views from there.

    Kells was only a stop over on our way to Dingle so my expectations were not up to much. However, I absolutely loved Kells, the scenery when driving towards the bay was fantastic. The bay was beautiful, clean and well maintained. Wish I had time to stay in Kells for a few days, will definitely return. The local pub did good food and live music. Another town worth staying in would be 'Adair,' full of charming thatched cottages ( on route to Dingle).

    Victoria was a charming hostess. When we arrived, we had not eaten, and she suggested a delicious Thai restaurant just a few minutes walk from her house. The flora on her property, and throughout the neighborhood, is stunning. We even saw a waterfall on our short stroll. The room was clean and cozy. The bed was very comfortable. In the morning, Victoria served a lovely continental breakfast that included a treat from her pastry-chef sister. We then had a short 30-minute drive to catch our boat to Skellig Michael.

    Great house, perfect for 2 large families. Good size garden for kids to play in. Bbq on terrace overlooking bay was fabulous and we got the weather to enjoy it. Kells bay beach is a great, safe, sandy beach which is excellent to swim on and only 5 mins walk. Good location to explore Valentia, Skelligs and lots more without spending too much time in the car. Would happily go back and would recommend the house and area.

    Very good continental breakfast, with an added treat of freshly baked apple crumble! Excellent location. Walking distance to beach and Kells Bay House and Gardens. Half hour drive to ferry for Valencia Island, perfect! House surrounded by beautiful garden/nursery, with spectacular mountain scenery. Excellent advice and recommendations from Victoria about places to see and where to eat.

    The location was absolutely incredible. We took a walk down to the beach through what I can best describe as a rainforest -- I didn't know Ireland terrain could look like that. Gorgeous waterfall along the way, sweet little beach area with a concession stand and ice cream.....totally wonderful. Victoria's House was a garden itself, and Victoria was a lovely attentive hostess.

    Host was friendly, helpful, and knowledgable about the local area. Lovely setting (beautiful garden and flowers/plants) and good location for exploring the Ring of Kerry by car. Kells Bay beach only a short walk away and mountain/hill walks close by too. Clean room. Pleasant breakfast including really tasty home made goods each morning.
