“We have just returned from a really enjoyable stay in Brendan`s cottage.”

Everything about it was just perfect for us and our host Peter was most welcoming. He filled us in on the amenities and attractions on the island which was really helpful. Good weather was an added bonus for our stay. We were so at home in our cottage which was so well kitted out. We would highly recommend Brendan`s Cottage for a relaxing break in a very beautiful part of the country.

“Great spot.”

Very convient for us for traveling around the area. Just to advice people there is no local supermarket so make sure you bring plenty of provisions . It was ideal for us . Cottage was very clean & had everything we needed. Remote so may not be everyone’s choice . If you are looking for quiet & relaxing it’s the place for you

“A really lovely holiday home”

In fact, this year was the second time we stayed at Brendans for our summer holiday. Brendans cottage is a charming, traditional place to explore Valentia and the Kerry coast. The small garden is perfect to relax, the way down to the strand is just a couple of meters. The cottage has all facilities needed - the kitchen is well equipped. Brendans cottage has a very friendly owner who did all to make our stay comfortable.

About the location

KNIGHTSTOWN, COUNTY KERRY

Cahersiveen 15 miles; Kerry Airport 53 miles.

Knightstown is the main village on Valentia Island, which lies off the coast of the Iveragh Peninsula in County Kerry. It is accessible from the mainland by ferry from Reenard Point, or via the road bridge at Portmagee. Knightstown provides restaurants and Irish pubs as well as entertainment and local shops. It is also the departure point for a variety of sightseeing boat trips and fishing trips. Take a trip to the magnificent Skellig Islands, the site of a 6th century monastic settlement, and home to a large colony of gannets and puffins. With around 650 residents Valentia Island stands out as one of the westernmost inhabited locations in Europe, and was the site of the first permanent communications link between Europe and the United States. The Island is famed for its magnificent 'Fogher' sea cliffs, which rise majestically from the Atlantic Ocean on the northern side of the Island, and the subtropical gardens at Glanleam House, which are a unique delight for visitors of all ages.
