Ballinskelligs is renowned for its miles of golden beaches (Blue Flag Award) and turquoise water. The area has its own Irish College, where children come in summer to learn the Irish Language. The area has a unique history and culture and was the mainland connection for the monks that lived on Skellig Michael.

The Blue Flag Beach, where the 16th Century Castle of the McCarthy was built to protect the bay from pirates, is a few minutes walk from Dungegan and is spectacular in fine weather but also makes for a beautiful setting for walking or some quiet thought on a blustery day. The village of Dungegan is typical of most rural Irish villages. Village life is centered on the local pubs in the evenings, where you can enjoy traditional Irish music and dancing.

It is is easily accessible through Cork and Kerry airports and 1 hour drive from Killarney train station. 1 hour drive from Kerry Airport (Direct flights with Ryan Air from Dublin, London Luton & Stansted and Frankfurt Hahn)

Local areas of interest Valentia Island, Knightstown-Cahirciveen Ferry, Glanleam House Sub Tropical Gardens, Skellig Rocks Boat Trips, St Finians Bay (Surfing), Waterville & Skelligs Golf Courses, Portmagee Village, Waterville Lake Fishing, Sailing and Kayaking and Skelligs Chocolate Factory. Beautiful walks, cycles and drives. Award winning seafood restaurants within 10 minutes drive.

A highlight is a boat trip from Ballinskelligs Pier & from Portmagee to the stunning Skellig Michael Rock.

The Skellig rocks, which are located 12kms off the coast of Kerry, are of such an importance that they have been made a World Heritage Site. When you first see The Skelligs you wonder how or why anyone would live on such a remote rock in the middle of The Atlantic , when you visit and stand on the site of the monastery and Experience the Skelligs then you begin to understand.



Waterville is just 10 minutes drive The late Henry Cotton, three times British Open Champion, probably said it best when he commented: 'Waterville has to be one of the greatest golf courses ever built. If it were located in Britain, it would undoubtedly be a venue for the British Open. I have never seen a more consistent succession of really strong and beautiful golf holes than here.

Another jewel in the crown is Dooks Golf Links.
. The golf course is laid out on one of three stretches of sand dunes at the head of Dingle Bay. In the immediate foreground are the dune peninsulas of Rossbeigh and Inch, while just a few short miles away, the whitewashed houses of Cromane fishing village provide another eye catching distraction. To the southeast are the famed peaks of McGillycuddy Reeks, while looking northwards across the bay; one can see Slieve Mish and the Dingle mountains dominate the landscape. Dooks offers the visitor a unique links experience in a majestic setting and is perfectly suited to the golfer seeking a tranquil environment in which to enjoy a superb golf course. The par 3, 13th hole, measuring 150 yards, probably best represents the charm and magic that is inherent at Dooks.

Other nearby activities include cycling, walking, horse riding, fishing, diving, windsurfing,& many other water-sports.

It is minutes walk from the Ballinskelligs Inn and Rosie's Tavern.
It is a place that will warm your heart and offers the extra special comfort of a beautiful permanent home.
Whether you're planning a beach escape, a working retreat, or a group getaway, this house has the comfort, space, and prime location to make your stay unforgettable.

Please note: NO pets allowed.

There is children's playground only 10 minutes walk from the house. It is a great addition to the local facilities.

From the moment we arrived, we knew the photos and description didn’t do this home justice—it’s truly special. The house is lovely, with breathtaking bay views and beautiful landscaping that created the perfect gathering space for our family (my husband and I, our daughter and son-in-law, and our two granddaughters). We shared family dinners, played ball on the lawn, and soaked in the peaceful setting.The location is magical—a short walk to the beach with incredible views, a historic fort, church/abbey, and a warm, welcoming Café Cois Trá, where we felt at home. One evening we enjoyed pizza, an intimate live music event, and a sunset walk along the beach—unforgettable.We loved exploring the area: St. Finian’s Bay (with views of Skellig Michael), Skelligs Chocolate Factory, Kerry Cliffs, Valentia Island, Bray Head and Bolus Head hikes, and time in Waterville. Derrynane House and Beach and Kenmare. A highlight was Hidden Hills Farm, where we met Timothy, Kitty, and Sinéad, experienced real farm life, and even held and feed baby lambs. We all had a much better understanding of farming and appreciation for the dedication it takes to properly care and love the animals raised there.This home became our family haven. When we asked our granddaughters their favorite part, they said, “Everything.” Thank you for such meaningful memories—we’d give it double the rating if we could.Warmly and with gratitude. the Billesbach and Anderson's

A great house for a multi family holiday. There was plenty of relaxation space for the adults and entertainment space for the children. The host supplied lots of up to date local info on things to do/see and eat around the area. We would happily stay here again.

Property location excellent, but overall cleaniness very disappointing, microwave toaster, needs to be replaced, I wouldn't use it, cooker, needs a good clean, windows were filthy, oven gloves in press, only fit for the bin. Kitchen needs a good overall, clothes left , behind chest of drawers, wardrobes musty smell , wouldnt put clothes in them. Certainly not worth the money I paid, I should get a refund, I won't be recommending this property. Regards Judith
