Lots to do and very cosy and comfortable in this delightful cottage. The owner Maura couldnât have been more helpful and welcoming. We will definitely be coming back. Recommend riding at OâConnors, Sauce Creek walk, Murphyâs Pub at Brandon and the Irish evening at the Community Hall. Beaches everywhere and Slea Head drive.

The owner helped us by showing the way to the property when we arrived as it is quite secluded . The house was well equipped with comfortable beds and 3 bathrooms with one being downstairs. It is a five minute walk to the beach and the is a bar within 15 minutes walk. We had a great stay in Brandon and would recommend this property.

Close to many trails along the dingle way. It was very clean, with a well stocked kitchen; everything you could need, washer and dryer. Also there was a small but great selection and reasonably price grocery store about 4kms away.The house had two working open fires and fire starters provided. The house itself was well insulated, warm ,easy to heat, and very cosy. The beds were very comfortable, and linen provided. Two double beds, and three singles. Towels were provided for all guests and hand towels, hand soap, and toilet tissue for the bathrooms. There were three bathrooms with very nice showers and a tub also. The views were amazing. A television was available with basic stations and you could use your mobile wifi to connect to netflixs. It was a very comfortable sitting room. It just felt so homey here. The house is a Gem and an excellent price for the facility provided. I would highly recommend the house to anyone considering a trip to dingle. This is a rare find! Thank you Maura for sharing this place with us.
