Rossanean

We were very pleased with our stay at Rossanean.

The house is very large and clean and comfortable. It really is out of the way so if peace and quiet are what you're looking for then this is it. We saw 2 stoats along the road which was a treat to see:) A couple of tips for future guests: The approach is by what is mostly a single lane road so caution and slow speed is essential. There are passing places though. With the wifi we found that if its in the kitchen we couldn't get reception in the bedrooms and vice versa. The solution is to plug it into the socket in the hall wall opposite the front door which makes it more central, with this we had a signal in the kitchen and the furthest bedroom. A very comfortable, spacious and clean house. Thanks Helena. 10/10.

Recent reviews rate cleanliness as high.

This baffled us. The hob and oven were filthy. So dirty that we would not use them and took photos/videos to support our claim. All the kitchen worktops, fridge etc. were smeared where they had been wiped but obviously not with a clean cloth and with little care. Showers, toilets etc. were passable but only just. The radiator in the second bathroom was leaking and bound at the joint with a J Cloth. The oil tank was leaking into the ground with a constant drip causing a significant smell of heating oil to permeate the utility and kitchen areas. All of this is very sad as the bungalow is lovely, is in a beautiful location, and deserves better care. The rear garden is basically a building site with significant earthworks in progress. Not somewhere for sitting out and enjoying the stunning scenery. This property has been let down and could be so much more.

This was the best house we have stayed in over a long number of years.

Everything you could possibly want was there,location was excellent. Ideal for large family .

Very clean and maintained country property.

Just 15-18 minutes to Killarney. Our hostess was very accommodating to our entry needs and questions. Easily held out family of 7 with comfortable accommodations. One drawback, there is a washing machine, but no dryer (outside clothesline). But there was a laundry mat that was easy to access in town. Overall top notch for us.

didn't know how to turn on the hot water eventually found how to boost the water heating.

It was set to come on in the morning but didn't always heat up don't know why but didn't spoil our stay lovely house

What a fantastic property in a beautiful location.

Very spacious and well equipped. We had a lovely two weeks exploring the local area. The property owner was extremely helpful and accommodating. A great rural location. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed last year and returned again for the ease and comfort the house offers.

Super clean, very comfortable and spacious. Views from windows are amazing and the location feels remote but is only 15 minutes from Killarney and all it has to offer and 20 minutes from Tralee. Kerry is a beautiful county to explore and house was a perfect haven to rerun to after a day sight seeing

Helena and her dad were great hosts.

as host go you won’t get much better

A beautiful house in stunning location.

At just 10mins drive from Kerry airport and within easy reach of Tralee and Killarney this was the ideal location for our party of 10. The house has stunning views from every room and is in a peaceful location. Although there were 10 of us, the house felt roomy. Helena was quick to respond to our enquirires and was the perfect host. We hope to be back. Despite staying for a week, it just wasn't long enough.

Nice house, but just little bit to far away from everything We spend lovely Christmas holidays in there, house big and comfortable, very comfy beds Recommend for big families or friend groups Helena friendly and helpful host and we had wonderful time

This beautiful bungalow ticks all the boxes!

It is absolutely fabulous! So spacious and extremely well equipped. Spotless when we arrived. Situated in a very private location with its own driveway, lots of parking space and fabulous views. There are 5 bedrooms, each bedroom is beautifully decorated with fresh bedlinen and towels provided. Four of the bedrooms have double beds, one of the bedrooms has two single beds. Two of the bedrooms have their own toilet, sink and shower. One bedroom (twin bedroom) is linked by a door to the main bathroom. The main bathroom is large and has a toilet, sink, bath and shower. Each ensuite/bathroom has toilet roll and soap provided as well as a towel. The kitchen is so big and spacious. Lots of cupboards with plenty of plates, bowls, cups, glasses and cutlery etc. Very well kitted out. The kitchen has a large fridge and freezer. You can access ice and cold water via the freezer. There is a dishwasher and a microwave, kettle and toaster. Chopping boards and knife block are also available. Washing up liquid and soap were provided too. There is a breakfast bar with 3 chairs and a large dining table with 6 chairs. The breakfast bar chairs can be used around the table if need be or there are stools provided in the utility room. The sun room just off the kitchen has a corner sofa. There is also a living room just off the kitchen through glass double doors. The living area has a TV. The utility room is a great size and has a separate toilet and sink just off it. It also has a washing machine and sink. There is a large cupboard in the utility room which has a drying rack, ironing board, hoover, brushes, iron, cleaning equipment etc. There is also a handsanitiser dispenser in the utility room. The entrance hall is extremely spacious with a lovely tiled floor. WiFi is provided. The house is situated in the countryside approximately 20 minutes drive from Killarney. It has a great location for all the tourist attractions. We can highly recommend doing the Ring of Kerry, travelling around the Dingle Pininsula, visiting Muckross, Ross Castle and the Gap of Dunloe. There were 7 adults in our group and we stayed for one week. We wish we had stayed longer. We all loved the house very much. Very impressed with it as soon as we set foot in it. The owner of the house is so lovely and extremely helpful. I can't recommend this house enough, you will not be disappointed.

Great property clean comfortable.

Two families with two kids and a set of grandparents had loads of space and comfort. The outside area is perfect for kids. The location is perfect to relax in and a short 30 minute drive to fabulous days out along ring of Kerry and beaches. The supermarkets are a short 15 minutes from house and the kitchen so well equipped and central hub to the house eating in as a family was lovely.

I was a little concerned when I discovered we were so close to the airport - no need to worry.

The property is out in the countryside - exceptionally peaceful, beautiful view, large property - plenty of space for all nine of us and hardly a plane in sight. Beds were exceptionally comfortable - well equipped property.

The accommodation is lovely but there are things that would make it better.

The bedroom with the fireplace needs to have the fireplace boarded up. We had 2 storms whilst we were there and the wind blew through there and the cold and noise was horrendous. There were 10 people on the trip and a baby but only 9 adult folks and only 9 seats. Each person only had 1 pillow so more pillows would be good. There was a washing machine but no tumble dryer, we got very wet and muddy and trying to get the clothes dry wasn’t good. The property was advertised with 3 on suite but there was only 2 and a jack and Jill bathroom. We have travels and stayed in many houses in Ireland and usually you get a small starter hamper ie tea bags biscuits bread sometimes this would have been nice. There was no guest book. All these things would have made it a more pleasant stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Rossanean.

The accommodation was comfortable and spacious for the 8 of us. Location is great and central for a visit to Kerry. We will definitely be booking again.

In its own ground away from traffic but local for killarney and three national park.

On routes to Corke and other places. Lots of room in the house to have own space and the kitchen dining area with lots of space.

House was perfect for a large family.

We went with 4 adults and 6 children, each person could have their own space if they wished. House was spotless. Big fridge/freezer so we could do a big shop at the start of the week. Plenty of pots/pans/dishes and utensils available to cook for a large family. Perfect location, an ideal base for travelling around Kerry. Large garden for kids to play and kick a ball. Outdoor seating area for those sunny evenings. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. It has been one of our favourite holidays and I can't actually recommend this house enough!

Our stay was fabulous, the house was in great location and great for a big family.

Will definitely book again.

Amazing house, very spacious and had everything we needed for our week in Kerry.

Our host, Helena, was extremely helpful and replied to any queries we had very promptly. A fantastic base to explore Kerry, particularly for families who are happy to get out and about for the day as it is easily accessible to the main tourist sites. About 15mins either side of Tralee and Killarney.

Great house for large parties.

We had up to 9 people for a few days and sufficient room for everyone. Located in farm countryside so google maps are necessary. We come from a major city area but got the roads down after a few days. Between Killarney and Tralee. Perfect for traveling out to other destinations. You will love staying here!!!

Helena's Holiday Cottage was extremely nice, spacious, clean and very very comfortable for me and my family.

.total 8 in all. The amenities were superb and the whole cottage in general is awesome. It is surrounded by farms on all sides which makes it even more eye soothing. I would definitely recommend this holiday cottage to anyone considering it. Go for it...you will not be disappointed.
