Really very nice, quiet, comfortable, relaxing place
The Lookout is really very much what we were looking for. We wanted a place that was out of the way, with a great water view, where we could relax in comfort. Our expectations were met. The place was comfortable and well-appointed. The beds were a little smaller than we are accustomed to, but comfortable enough. The kitchen had just about everything we needed.
The location is remote but really great. There are a few restaurants/pubs and one small grocery shop in Ballyferriter (5 minutes drive away) and much more in Dingle (25 minutes drive away). Be prepared for the single lane roads as you approach the lookout...it does take a short time to learn the etiquette of how to pass on the narrow roads.
The house itself is located amidst farms, with sheep and cows close by the house, but no negative consequences of their presence...and we loved listening to the "conversations" among the sheep.
There are hikes available to the cliffs above the house, although you've got to find them a bit. A trip around the peninsula is an easy and pleasant drive...once you're used to the narrow roads.
The place is in really great condition...a little additional upkeep/maintenance would raise the level even further. We really enjoyed it.
