  • "Mary was there to meet us on arrival and show us around the cottage."

    The cottage was in a great location with great views. Plenty of room both inside and outside the cottage. Would definitely stay here again if travelling to the area again

  • "We were surprised when we got there that oil and gas were not included."

    Not a problem but it’s a bit hidden on the website. Worth perhaps also saying that the property is set back from an extremely fast main straight road. Otherwise wonderful position and a good base for the Dingle peninsula and the Ring of Kerry.

  • "The bungalow is in a delightful position looking over the sea."

    The stunning Inch beach (Ryan's Daughter) is 5 mins away. The charming town of Dingle (good supermarket 'Supervalu') is half an hour away. The highlight for us was the fabulous Blasket Islands Museum, a lively and full narration of the lifestyle of the islanders.. Mr and Mrs O'Shea were very helpful and easy to contact. The house was immaculate, light and airy and could easily accommodate six. It was extremely well-equipped..

  • "A great holiday property for touring around Kerry."

    Mrs. O'Shea is very welcoming. The kitchen has all utensils you are liely to need for cooking. I'd just like to point out that there is no internet/wifi in the property and only Irish television channels. As this is available these days in a majority of holiday rentals be prepared.

  • "We enjoyed our stay at Heron's nest very much."

    Heron's nest is a cosy comfortable little house that satisfied all our needs. Conveniently located close to Inch Beach and at the entrance to the amazing Dingle Peninsula. There are a great deal of attractions nearby like the historically interesting pub South Pole Inn in Annascaul (we loved the pub and the food!), the town of Dingle itself, Mt. Brandon, Connor Pass, Gallarus Oratory, the Beehive Huts and lots more. We would love to return to this house in the future.
