Perfect place to stay for the Ring of Kerry!

Lovely home for a family of five. Very clean and spacious. Great spot in Kenmare. The host was very attentive, making sure we got in okay and everything was in order. We would have loved to have stayed longer.

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.

We enjoyed the Little Nest. Perfect for four adults (with room for more). Easy walk into Kenmare for restaurants, pubs and history, plus easy access to a day or two spent exploring the Ring of Kerry. House is well appointed, equipped kitchen, very clean, laundry, parking out front and a nice quiet neighborhood.

Great location and cozy house

This is a great spot for a visit to Kenmare and the surrounding area, including Killarney National Park. The home is clean, cozy and well located, within a short walk to the town center along a well-lit sidewalk and path in a residential area. Parking right outside the house is a real bonus!
