Honeybee Cottage is an absolute gem! A lovely, comfy and cosy cottage in beautiful surroundings. We received the warmest of welcomes from Noreen and had a marvellous stay. Our four-legged friend was made very welcome too. It may be useful to know that the garden isn’t dog-secure but that the (pebbly) beach is only 5 minutes away and offers the chance to stretch their legs.All in all, glorious and very highly recommended.

We loved the house, it was very comfortable, had everything we needed. The kitchen was the best equipped kitchen ! The location is perfect, the beach at the end of the road. Not to mention the amazing pub at the end of the road
Nothing, Noreen was the perfect hostess and honeybee the perfect escape for our family

A lovely and relaxing stay
We had a very nice stay at Honeybee Cottage. The location feels like being away from it all, the views from the kitchen make cooking there a less mundane task. Our two young children had a wonderful time running around outside. Valentia is a great base from which to explore this part of Kerry. Noreen was a friendly, helpful host. We would recommend the place to others!

Lovely spot for a relaxing break
Spotless accommodation, fab kitchen, very well equipped, comfortable, fine size garden and lovely views. Really nice touches included doggie treats, tealights and tasty cakes on arrival! Noreen and Allan couldn't have been nicer hosts.
All small things. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend it!
Decor is a bit dated other than the kitchen and bathroom. The xpelair in the bathroom doesn't turn off - we had to turn off the fuse. To be fair, this was noted on arrival. A gate to help keep doggies in the garden would be helpful.
