A magical view. A helpful host. A gateway to Kenmare.
Bedrock cottage was indeed a marvel. The view of Kenmare Bay may be one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. The Irish light changed the mountain scape of Beara every hour. The house was very comfortable, the kitchen, bedrooms, bath, all splendid. The owner was very helpful and communicative. I would go back in a second.

A fabulous location in wonderful countryside. Linda very helpful. A swarm of bees arrived at the same time as us and Linda went out of her way to deal with it including alternative accommodation in a nearby hotel while it was sorted. Many thanks Linda. Tim

Cosy cottage with spectacular views
Perfectly situated to visit Kerry, this cosy cottage has everything you need for a fantastic break. The view over Kenmare bay is stunning whatever the weather. Patrick and Linda responded very quickly to any question we had. We highly recomend this property for a holiday in the west of Ireland!

Hillside view of inlet is beautiful
Bedrock cottage was a great find. It has a beautiful view of the lough or inlet and mountains beyond. Short drive to Kenmare which has many pub and restaurant offerings. A quiet hillside location surrounded by wildflowers. Could use a more comfortable couch.

Great place with amazing view on Kenmare bay
We spent a super week between Kenmare and Sneem, close to the Ring of Kerry. Very nice cottage, silent (no traffic) with a beautiful view over the Kenmare bay. Communication was very good, always quick/immediate. All necessary information was given prior to our arrival. No problems whatsoever - we would return whenever we should travel the same region in future.

Bedrock cottage: peace and quiet
Wonderful views over the Kenmare River. A great area for sitting outside, with picnic table. Big windows. Surrounded by trees, flowers and birds. Super efficient heating and Wi-Fi. Well-equipped kitchen. Quite remote, up a narrow lane, not suitable for driving back after an evening in the pub! Needs a little updating: curtains in bedrooms are very thin, letting in light in the mornings; a couple of floor lamps in the sitting area would make reading easier in the evenings; and a new sofa would be nice. Anyway we had a great stay - and if you like peace and quiet, and great views, this one’s for you!

Cosy practical cottage with a fantastic view with floor warming everywhere
I can only be enthousiastic about this cottage. Warm welcome with several presents, much privacy. The floorwarming made it feel warm everywhere. Much light entered the windows, showing a scenary beyond imagination. I felt home from the first moment. The kitchen and all equipment functioned well . That was not the case in several former cottages.The central location near Killarny National Park and the ocean did not require long trips to experience extraordinarily natural beauty. Only the weather was challenging that week.

Wonderful Cottage Above Kenmare Bay
We enjoyed an idyllic respite at Patrick’s cottage on a hill overlooking the bay. Bedrock Cottage was a perfect spot from which to take day trips to Beara and Kerry Peninsulas, Kenmare, Killarney, and more. The cottage is perched above a valley, where on our first evening we watched a dog herd cattle back to a nearby barn. The view was different every day; the changing colors in the water and various formations of mists between mountains and water invariably spectacular. Bees, birds, and butterflies…lovely flowers and foliage…the setting is truly bucolic. Patrick was very responsive to our questions. This was our first trip to Ireland, and we loved it all—from the music and pints in the pubs to the cow standing atop a boulder on a remote outcropping near Allihies. We hope to return soon!

rest and relaxation
Cottage was neat, clean, and as described. View was lovely even when the fog rolled in. Great spot to recuperate from surgery. Have to say the best was owner Patrick. We had a few challenges immediately. The internet was not working properly; fixed quickly. The oven broke New Years Eve and within a few hrs we had a replacement for our roast chicken dinner celebration. Next, the gas went out on the cook-top and we had a replacement propane tank within an hour. Can not say enough nice things about Patrick! He brought us a beautiful basket of goodies for our troubles. He has some good reads on his bookshelf as well. Kenmare is a lovely spot and very quiet at this time of the year. Hopefully, we can find another time to revisit. Anne and Calvin

Einfach nur: WOW!
Wir haben in den letzten 20 Jahren ziemlich viele Ferienhäuser gebucht, so begeistert waren wir selten (oder gar nicht?). Anfahrt gut beschrieben und knapp 15 Autominuten von Zentrum von Kenmare (~1,5 Std. Cork Airport), mit einem absolut phantastischen Blick auf die Bucht von Kenmare sehr ruhig und als Startpunkt für viele Unternehmungen perfekt gelegen. Wir kamen an, betraten das Haus und fühlten uns zuhause. Zweckmäßig eingerichtet, Landhausstil, alles stimmig, kein Schnickschnack. Im Schlafzimmer mit Doppelbett ist die Matratze wirklich gut, die Sessel im Wohnbereich sind bequem. TV, Mikrowelle, Kaffeemaschine, Waschmaschine und Spülmaschine haben wir nicht benutzt, Herd und Backofen in der gut ausgestatteten Küche sind gut funktionierend, Toaster ebenso. Die Dusche im "kleinen" Bad ist ebenfalls gut funktionierend und das Wifi arbeitet störungsfrei. Einige basics in der Küche sind vorhanden (Essig, Öl, Salz, Pfeffer, Zucker, einige Gewürze). Zur Begrüßung gab es eine Flasche Wein, selbiger hat uns gefreut und gemundet. Vielen, herzlichen Dank hier nochmal an Patrick, den wir zwar nicht persönlich kennengelernt haben, der aber bei einem "Miniproblem" schnell helfen konnte. Sollten wir (durchaus denkbar), nochmals Kerry besuchen, würden wir diese Unterkunft garantiert wieder buchen. 🇮🇪☘

Great location and a short drive from Kenmare
We had a great week at Bedrock cottage, we were able to easily access the Beara Peninsula as well as other magnificent parts of the Ring of Kerry. We especially enjoyed The Reeks and cycling on the roads in the area. The tearooms at Lord Brandon's cottage were really great (cash only). We had a fantastic time.

Aussicht, Ruhe, Lage
Traumhafte Aussicht, ruhige Lage und dennoch gute Anbindung, wenn man den Killarney Nationalpark und den Ring of Kerry erkunden möchte. Uns hat der einfache gemütlich-rustikale Stil des Cottage gefallen. Hinweis für alle, die Wert auf eine große Glotze legen: Es gibt nur einen alten Röhren-TV. Die Fish-and-Chips-Bude nur wenige hundert Meter entfernt auf einem Parkplatz, ist zu empfehlen. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Klare Empfehlung.
