I would not recommend anyone to enter this lady's grounds or stay here. My Family and I recent went to ireland. We drove around one day and found a country lane. We drove up the lane to find a beauitful country house with stunning surrounds. My wife got out of the car and took some photos of the lighthouse as... More

We stayed for 2 nights as part of our short tour of the Ring of Kerry. Meta was a very welcoming hostess and we loved the house and the way she has restored it. It has only 4 rooms and will not suit those who like modern smart hotels. However it's location overlooking the bay and the view we enjoyed... More
