Summary: Myself, my 18 yr old daughter and 14 yr old son stayed for a week at Cois Farraige. The only blip we had, all week, was when we arrived, and we couldn't get the keys out of the Pin operated Key Box, despite 20 minutes trying to open it. I rang Mary, but as she lived thirty minutes away we had to wait for her to arrive with replacement keys.. Despite this unfortunate start to our holiday, the rest of our week was very enjoyable. The weather was beautiful, warm, sunny and blue skies all week. We all slept well, beds were very comfortable, and the house had everything we needed. The beach is about 500 metres away, so very close, but an uphill walk back to the house. We ate out in John D's Bar in the Ring of Kerry hotel, Cahirciveen, and our favourite was The Blind Piper in Caherdaniel. The food there was outstanding.. Cahirciveen was also the best place for a larger food shop, Supervalu is about 15 minutes away. Our favourite trips were The Skellig Experience boat trip to the Skelligs and climbing Geokaun mountain with its 360° views from Valentia Island. Day trips also to Molls Gap, Derrynane and the Ring of Kerry.. Helen, the owner also contacted me several times by email, so it was great to be in touch. We'll be back again!!

Summary: We had a really lovely stay in Helen’s house, which is exactly as the pictures show. The location is really good for seeing the Skellig ring and there is plenty to do. David from The Force awakens was really helpful, not just for visiting Skellig Michael but also for arranging a fishing trip for us. The house is well equipped and spacious , though the living room only really takes 5 people comfortably. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return.

Summary: Very spacious property inside and out. Easy to book, locate and park. Then able to easily explore the area including Skelligs Ring. Waterville is quite near and some of the beaches and small piers, Derrynane for example are outstanding.
