“We were given such a warm and friendly welcome from Gail and Denis, who showed us round the property and gave lots of helpful information about Kenmare and surrounding area.”

Millfield is perfectly situated in a very pleasant, quiet neighbourhood, just ten minutes walk into the town centre, where there are numerous bars, restaurants, craft and gift shops, and supermarkets. Millfield itself is an extremely comfortable property, spotlessly clean and very tastefully decorated, with very comfortable beds. It is the perfect base for exploring all that Co Kerry has to offer, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. We were very sad to leave. Thank you Gail and Denis for ...

Helen August 2022

“The perfect holiday home to explore the beautiful Ring of Kerry.”

It was spacious, comfortable, very clean and had everything you could imagine you needed - even a small screwdriver (which was a godsend as I was trying to get my son's new toy out of its packaging). The location is excellent, far away from the centre that its quiet but only a 10 min walk. Its also on the Ring of Kerry itself. If you are looking to explore or just relax and enjoy the gem that is Kenmare, this is the perfect holiday home. My children didn't want to come home!

- Helen, August 2022

Thanks, Helen, for your lovely comments about No.2 Millfield and delighted you enjoyed your stay. I know that you really enjoyed the beaches along the Ring of Kerry. Delighted to have you back at Millfield in the future. Thank you. Gail Property Owner
Thomas August 2022

Louise March 2022

“A wonderful property with a wonderful host!”

2 Millfield is a very spacious, comfortable and well equipped house, everything we needed was provided. It is in an amazing location with Kenmare, a lovely town, a short walk away and all the sights of Southern Ireland accessible from the doorstep. A service station with great food and a fast EV charger is at the end of the road. Gail was so kind and welcoming and gave us great advice of where to go. We book holiday cottages a lot and this was definitely one of the best and excellent value for money, the perfect base for a great holiday.

- Louise, March 2022

Thanks Louise for your lovely comments about No. 2 Millfield. Yes, Kenmare is an amazing town and the walk into Kenmare is always so enjoyable. Delighted to have you back anytime. Property Owner

Clean and great location with all facilities needed. Would definitely recommend

Peter September 2019

“This was the ninth time I have booked the same cottage in Ireland together with the ferry ( Ireland is across the Irish Sea ).”

I booked for 2019 as soon as we returned last September and paid a deposit for a repeat holiday as had been previous practice. I received a telephone call from you four months later to say that Sykes were not doing Irish ferries anymore and that I would have to make my own arrangements. I found this to be terribly upsetting and unprofessional on your part and was dealt with in a very offhand manner - how was I to get to an Irish cottage without a ferry? Accordingly, I will not be dealing with Sykes Cottages again!

- Peter, September 2019
Patricia April 2018

“Everything was perfect Our holiday was terrific and the location of the cottage was instrumental to our getting out onto Ring of Kerry in a timely way Lovely town Kenmare with great bars and restaurants served by friendly staff .”

- Patricia, April 2018
Nora September 2017

“Gail was extremely helpful ensuring that our stay was as comfortable as possible.”

Pam September 2016

“We had a fantastic week at Millfield House, just one week ago.”

Gail, the owner, was so delightful that I wished she lived next door! She greeted us with great warmth and explained everything about the house and area and made us feel very welcome to contact her if we needed to. We arrived to tea set out and goodies as well, along with provisions for a great breakfast the next morning which was so welcome since we had just flown all night and driven most of the day. The house was beautiful with everything one could ever want and so much more than the photos could depict. It was beautifully furnished with warm and comfy furniture, wonderful beds, complete bathrooms (3) and a great, well equipped kitchen and dining area. And spotlessly clean! The garden in the back was lovely with flowers and a table for eating and a fireplace in the living room to take the evening chill off. We had guests join us for a few days and Gail was lovely about the extra people. There was plenty of room for us all but still cozy and welcoming. We loved the little pathway that led to the town of Kenmare - just a few minutes walk to all of the great pubs, music, shops and sights of the town. The area was perfectly situated for drives to the Ring of Beara, Ring of Kerry and other sights. We loved the pancake house, Strawberry Fields, just a short beautiful drive away - great for a rainy morning and lovely drive. There were plenty of great walks around the area and breathtaking drives. Pub fare was delicious and we had wonderful cuisine at the Lime Tree and '35'. We would absolutely recommend this beautiful house, area and most delightful owner and would not consider staying anywhere else!

Eric June 2015

“The owner was an excellent host, she did everything to make our stay excellent.”

This was the best equipped Sykes cottage we have rented. There was plenty of room to store our food there was a salad spinner which delighted my wife. The house looks small from the front but it is very spacious inside.

- Eric, June 2015
Jonathan April 2015

“This was one of the best places we stayed at.”

Weather was great too. Everything was super and the best

- Jonathan, April 2015
Mr Grzedzicki November 2014

“Very easy arrangements to arrive and a lovely warm welcome.”

The house is very spacious, spotlessly clean, furnished very comfortably with more than enough of everything we could have wanted. All fitments were nice quality. Brilliant location for the Rings of Beara and Kerry. Kenmare was still bustling in late November with plenty of choice of places to eat. Easy drive from Kerry Airport. One of the best places we have stayed.

- Mr Grzedzicki, November 2014
Bonnie November 2014

“Millfield is in a perfect location for touring the south and the Ring of Kerry.”

Kenmare is a wonderful little town full of friendly people and unique shops. Plenty of pubs and restaurants. The house was clean and nicely furnished and the fireplace was wonderful after a day of exploring.

“Very clean and spacious house.”

A very friendly owner who gave us lots of information. House well situated near the town. Would recommend to anyone.

Frank April 2014

“We truly had the luck of the Irish with us when we stumbled upon this gem of a house for our vacation in the South West of Ireland.”

Everything about this place was great- the ample kitchen, the 2 1/2 bathrooms, the cosy fireplace, the great fixtures and finishes and the comfortable bedrooms were all nicer than the online pictures conveyed. The owner has quite a collection of literature about everything to do in the region, and we found ourselves routinely using these references to help us explore this great country. One of our favourite parts of staying here was that when we returned at the end of the day, it was nice to take a stroll into Kenmare and enjoy all that the wonderful town has to offer. We really could not ask for any improvement on any front! Thanks again for a great stay, and we would not even consider staying anywhere else if we were to return to the area!

- Frank, April 2014
Colleen December 2013

“Our holiday at Millfield could not have been better.”

From the warm welcome to the extra touches for the holidays - Christmas tree and decorations - we felt right at home immediately. All the information and suggestions we could possibly need or want were available to help with our plans. Fire wood and turf were laid on for cosy fires and a welcoming bottle of wine made the transition to vacation-mode complete.

- Colleen, December 2013
