A traditional 17th century stone cottage, originally built for farm workers for Westcove House.

The stairs lead to a twin bedroom with its own shower room - small but comfortable and full of character. The ground floor has attractive ceramic floor tiles and under floor heating throughout.

Amazing location and lovely surroundings. But the house is quite dated although comfortable. There was no bbq/grill, no coffee/tea maker (only kettle), no spices (only S&P), no beach towels, limited toilet paper, terrestrial tv only.Overall having read the reviews we were disappointed in the lack lustre contents and cleanliness of the house.

The house and view are lovely. The location is peaceful. The house manager is delightful, shared some great tips for our explorations, and prepared some delicious food for us, which was a great convenience. This made for a perfect base from which to explore the Kerry Coast, Skellig Ring and Killarney National Park. We really could have used more than three nights here. There’s so much to see. The only negative, which is subjective, is the mattress wasn’t very comfortable. I would recommend this stay.

We had a fantastic 5 day stay in the Garden Cottage and didn’t want to leave. The cottage was spacious with every amenity you could imagine. The property owner, Susannah, was very communicative and easy to deal with. The property manager, Katherine, was a jewel! We definitely recommend having her prepare some of her delicious dishes during your stay. We can’t wait to come back again soon!

Dear Susannah, thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful "Garden Cottage". It was a wonderful holiday, also because of the cozy holiday home with the great view of the trees and the bay. We felt very comfortable. Katherine is the good soul of the house and does everything for the guests. It was so nice to talk to her. We would love to come back. Many greetings from Germany. PS We wish you all the best, Susannah.

We enjoyed a wonderful family reunion at the Garden Cottage. On arrival the house was warm and cosy ..all important in Kerry where its coastal and all weather every day ...first impressions are huge ! Food we had pre ordered from Catherine was lovely and welcome after the long drive. Any minor needs were quickly sorted with a text to Catherine. We loved the views, walks to Kerry Way ( easy access across the Ring of Kerry road its very busy be careful !!! ...access to the pier all moments away ...my brother had Pier Cottage for a week while we were there and it was delightful to share meals and swims with him and his family with such ease. We look forward to more lovely times at Westcove.

The Garden Cottage is just beautiful! The view is stunning, the location great as well, the interior very cozy, and with it's fireplace and it's history, it has that special charme, that most other holiday cottages don't have. After a day out, it's simply the perfect place to come HOME to. And yes, it soon feels like home... So much like home, that you actually want to stay! The contact to owner and manager was perfect as well, very helpful and friendly. We can only recommend this place, and we would love to come back! Thanks a million! : )

It was a very good decision to stay one week of our holidays in the beautiful Garden Cottage in West Cove Farm House. It's such a nice place with so friendly hosts. And we enjoy all of it and missed nothing in this nice place. Especially the quietness and the amazing view on the bay, the sheep's and some hare was so relaxed. The lovely landscape, the Irish People and the music of Kerry was so lovely and unforgettable. Thank you Katherine for the very good food and we think we come back one times.
