Great location in a great town!

The Little Nest was the perfect location for exploring Kenmare and surrounding area. You can walk downtown for all the shops, restaurants and pubs. The energy on the streets was always vibrant and enthusiastic! For driving to Killarney, the house is located on the outskirts of town so you can hit the main road without having to navigate through all the shoppers in the downtown. Then house is well stocked throughout. We cooked amazing meals with local produce and lamb. Communications with Catherine Ann were excellent. Immediate responses to every request and question we had. Kenmare is a great town to visit and great location for touring the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula and Killarney National Park. And The Little Nest is the perfect house to relax in at the end of the day.

DO NOT STAY HERE!

The odor throughout the property of mildew/dirt scent were unbearable. There was mold all around Both showers, dish rack was rusted, couches were stained and had a bad odor to that also, sheets were worn so bad that it there were holes, backyard is a view of broken apart fence and neighborhood consisted of multiple empty properties that were very unkept and appeared abandoned. We had to leave early due to the BAD odors, we informed host immediately and were told we would get refunded. Host later emailed informing me she was not going to refund and wouldn't discuss further. We do not agree with the owners explanation of new paint/carpet for reason of odor. It was FAR beyond any paint or carpet scent. I hope this review helps someone to not waste their money on this place with a Host that will Not even respond to requests.

Odor

There was a strong odor throughout the house and it smelled like cat urine. Two out of four of us are allergic and had to take meds. Otherwise, it was a very nice place and appreciated the great instructions. Thank you.
