About this house rental

The cottage in Ducalla, Finan’s Bay, built in traditional Irish style, is over 100 years old and has been carefully renovated. It sits on a cliffside with stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean, the Skellig Islands, and the surrounding mountains. This is one of the most beautiful stretches of the Irish coastline along the Ring of Kerry, set in unspoiled nature, on a large plot of land and far from any hustle and bustle. Here, you can enjoy the tranquility of a cottage with an open fireplace or relax while gazing out at the sea.

The ground floor features a spacious open-plan living and dining area with a kitchen, as well as two bathrooms. On the first floor, there are two bedrooms and a connecting room with an additional sleeping area. The house offers ample space and comfort for up to five people.

From the large terrace of the holiday home, you can enjoy sweeping views over the ocean all the way to the monastic island of Skellig Michael, which is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Garden furniture is available.

Additional Costs The house cleaning fee (€100) as well as usage-based electricity and heating costs are to be paid upon departure. This amount may also be charged as a deposit.

Fishing, Deep-Sea Fishing, Skelligs: Thanks to the warm Gulf Stream, the clear and clean waters of this region offer an ideal paradise for anglers. Departure points include the small harbors in Finan’s Bay, Ballingskelligs, Portmagee, and Valentia. From here, you can also book trips to the Skelligs, which are not only a World Heritage Site — visiting this monastic island will leave a deep and lasting impression.

Freshwater Fishing: The picturesque lake Lough Currane near Waterville offers all possibilities, as boats with outboard motors can be rented at nearly every farm along the shore.

Golf: Waterville Links, Dooks Links, Killarney Mahony’s Point. Many other courses are available in places such as Killorglin, Kenmare, etc.

    The ocean view was good. The property was rundown and damp, not suitable for letting. We refuse to pay hidden charges cash.

    The location was idyllic. Pure peace and relaxation. The view was amazing! There was a beach 9 min away where we were able to swim. ( warm water and small waves one day but after that the waves were too high- still great to sit by). Lots of great day trip options in every direction. The cottage met our needs. The 3rd bedroom is really just a bed at the top of the stairs. Bring eye shades and ear plugs if you're planning on sleepingin that bed. Not luxurious but comfortable. I do wish there had been more dvds to watch or games to play. We brought own cards so we were able to stay entertained. We picked up some dvds at the charity shop in Cavherviseen but then the player broke. Hopefully they'll replace it. One bit of advice. If you are driving in past Caherviseen the Supervalu at the gas station just past the town center is a good place to get groceries (if you come from the other direction there is a good market in Waterville ). We would definitely stay there again

    It was fantastic to wake up and look and hear the ocean. The cottage was dated but comfortable, just what I expected from the picture. Neither my wife or I wanted to leave. Dierdre was such a huge help with all sorts of information from hiking trails to places to eat.
    6.0 / 10.0
    While the view was stunning, the cottage itself was disappointing. The couch and armchairs had rips that were taped and the entire place smelled musty. We were given two bath towels and two hand towels for 2 people/12 days. I requested more towels, which I received promptly. This place has a lot of potential, but the owner needs to make some small investments. The outdated furniture needs to be replaced by something fresh and clean; some happy pictures would be nice as well. It also wouldn't hurt to have some small shampoo bottles and soap available, which doesn't cost much, just in case the guests forgot to bring some. There was a picnic table in the shed, which was locked. It would have been nice if we had been able to use it. No lawn chairs were available, just two cheap plastic chairs. There are also no bicycles, which would have been great to have. I did not feel comfortable in this place, except when we were sitting outside enjoying the view. Inside it felt sad and dated.

    We had very nice days there by the sea with a direct view of the Skellig Islands. The house is in a really fantastic location and has its own charm there above the rocky coast. You can also start some hikes directly from the house.
