“Second visit even better than the first.”

“This was our second stay in this really lovely apartment. When we were there last year, we thought it was pretty special but this year, with the wonderful new shower ensuite to the main bedroom, it is just terrific. Even better than home from home! Again, we had a warm welcome from Kay and John who are great hosts and deservedly proud of their apartment. We were blessed with a bit of of an Irish heatwave for most of the week so made the most of the balcony with its wonderful view of the little bay and the mountains beyond. This apartment is ideally situated in Kenmare, close to all the amenities on offer but away from any noise. Loved it all so much that we are already planning our next visit.”

“This really is a little piece of Heaven”

“We arrived in Kenmare very tired after a long week of travelling around Ireland visiting family and friends. However, the welcome we received from Kay and John was so warm we revived very quickly. Kay and John spent some time showing us around their lovely apartment and explained how everything worked; and also the very welcome gifts of wine, biscuits etc There is nothing I can think of that you would need that is not already provided and the bed in the main (ensuite) bedroom is so comfortable. Plenty of wardrobe space and in both bedrooms. There are books and DVDs should the weather turn bad and of course, a TV. There is also a radio. I think the best thing that I can same about Kay and John's apartment in Bell Heights is that I would live there in the morning given half a chance! Many thanks to this lovely couple for providing such a great service and sharing their 'little piece of Heaven'..”

“we were greeted with a warm Irish welcome by the owner who explained everything about the apartment. There was Milk tea coffee and biscuits and a bottle of wine left for us for the start of our stay in Kenmare. The apartment was well equipped and very clean with everything we needed for our stay. The town was only five minutes walk away with local shops and pubs to wander round. Who needs WIFI when you have the beauty of Kenmare and the surrounding countryside. A big thank you to the owners John and Kay. (Five Stars)”

“what a fantastic apartment! I know the weather makes a lot of difference but the view from the balcony was as good as anywhere I've been in the world. Everyone in the town was friendly and made our stay so much the better. We will be back”

“We felt like local citizens.”

“The apartment was comfortable, nicely furnished, and well equipped. It was a pleasant, short walk to the town of Kenmare. The owner was very kind and made it clear that we should call her if we needed anything, including driving/directions advice to local points of interest. The neighbors were friendly and the parking was very convenient..we never worried about leaving our rented car overnight or for the day. This apartment was a delight to live in and, in short, was an excellent value. We are americans and this was our first visit to Ireland, but we felt that we belonged there.”

“Spot on location, good facilities and friendly owners”

“The apartment is on the first floor with a balcony that has a mountain view and gets the sun most of the day - and yes, the sun shone quite a lot of the time we were there! The accommodation had everything we needed and we were made to feel at home by the owners, who met us when we arrived. We were tired after a long drive so a couple of friendly faces, a carton of milk with tea bags and bottle of wine were just what we needed. Kenmare is a bustling and lively little town with food and drink to suit most tastes and pockets (don't underestimate how early you need to book a table if you want a 'posh' meal), a couple of supermarkets , free wifi in a couple of cafes and pubs and commuter-bike-style cycle hire. But the best thing for us is it's location, at the base of the Beara and Iveragh peninsulas, with their mountains, lakes, Atlantic coasts, coves, beaches and great cycling & walking areas.”

“Ideal location for 3 peninsulas, quiet, but 5 min walk from live”

“The owners were away, but there were clear instuctions and arrangements in place. The apartment was clean and spacious, and warmly furnished as opposed to feeling cold and clinical or shabby, which has been in our previous experiences. The apartment was very well equipped and the only reason it didn't have 5 stars, was because of lack of Wi Fi. However, the visitors book was full of useful tips. The location was perfect for us, quiet, overlooking Kenmare Lake, but a short walk away from lively bars, restaurents, quirky shops, and the other attractions the town has. My husband and I were staying with our teenage daughter, and there was plenty for us to do, wth our different interests, and it was great to have 2 bathrooms! All in all, it ranked as one of our top 5 holidays.”

“Bell Heights is in the town of Kenmare yet has views of Kenmare Bay and the Caha Mountains of the Beara peninsula. The apartment was very comfortable, the owners were helpful and parking was right by the door. Kenmare is our favorite town in Ireland and the Beara is beautiful. We would rent this unit again.”

- “We had a perfect week in Bell Heights Appartement. Kenmare is the perfect spot to explore the Ring of Kerry and the Ring of Beara as well as many other beautiful spots in the area. The Appartement is in walking distance to shops, restaurants and pubs but remotedly enough to quietly enjoy the beautiful view and have a good rest after exploring the region. Very kind contact to the landlords! Highly recommendable accomodation.”
Mrs Wallbaum, Duvensee, May 2018
- “I liked the apartment very much. Spacious and cozy.”
Mr Segler, Berlin, August 2017
- “4 Bell Heights is a very comfortable apartment owned by a charming couple who welcomed us with much attention and care before leaving us on our own for one of the most wonderful holidays we have ever had (and we have had many !!!). It is ideally situated : 3 minutes' walk from the centre which can boast everything tourists can wish for without being too touristy ; at the beginning of Beara Peninsula ; half an hour's drive from Killarney and Glengarriff enabling visitors to discover all the breathtaking natural beauties of the area. There is not one point we could complain about.”
Mrs Machado, Langres, July 2017
- “The only reason I would not book this property again is because we would choose anther location not because we were not happy with it. It was the nicest self catering we have ever been in and the gifts of milk, wine etc. We much appreciated. Kay also rang us to see if we were OK which I think was really kind of her. Kenmare is a lovely lively town.”
Mrs Oldham, Nelson, September 2016
- “This apartment was excellent. It was situated in a perfect area of Kenmare. Everything in the apartment was there for us. There was a warm welcome by the owner and everything about the apartment was explained to us fully. The property was well equipped. We had a fantastic holiday and will return again and would highly recommend it.”
Mr Murphy, Coventry, May 2016
