Description

Location

The house is located in the romantic hamlet of Kells at Dingle Bay just about four kilometers off the well-known Ring of Kerry – a section of the “Wild Atlantic Way”. The area of Kells is part of the internationally recognised “Kerry Dark Sky Reserve” without any light polution but millions of stars in clear nights. The near vicinty of the house is ideal for walking, cycling, fishing, swimming, exploring several cultural sites or touring the Ring of Kerry or Killarney National Park. The local  grocery shop with an Irish craft shop and a panorama restaurant is  less than three kilometers away. The nearest town is Cahersiveen. A lively market town with many traditional pubs, good restaurants, shops, doctors and a Yacht Marina with activity center.
