This four-bedroomed bungalow is situated in Tuosist
on the Ring of Beara, on the R571, 8 miles (13 km) from the
town of Kenmare on the Ring of Kerry. Kenmare is a very picturesque town
which is bustling with life in the summer months, and has an
almost continental atmosphere, with an unparalleled choice of excellent restaurants.
The Beara peninsula is a wild, unspoilt and beautiful place to visit, with mountains, lakes, pebble beaches, and abundant sub-tropical vegetation.
The house is a five minute walk from the sea at Coornagillagh Strand,
where it is quite safe to swim in the Gulf Stream waters.
There are plenty of quiet and scenic walks, including the "Beara Way".
It is a fisherman's paradise, with lake and sea fishing within walking distance.
The Inchiquin valley lies behind the house, and there is a very
beautiful walk or drive past lakes to the spectacular Inchiquin Waterfall.
The bungalow is on an elevated site with panoramic views of Kenmare Bay
and the McGillycuddy's Reeks beyond, and the Caha Mountains at the rear.
Accommodation consists of one double room, two twin-bedded
rooms and a single room, a baby's cot is available on request. Bed linen and towels provided. One bathroom with bath and shower, large sitting-room with
television and a writing desk, books and games. A well-equipped kitchen with electric cooker, fridge-freezer,
