We have 2 properties to rent one is STAY SKELLIGS. This a one bed apartment, that sleeps 3-4 people if you use the sofa bed. STAY SKELLIG is attached to our family home. The 2nd property is THE BOAT SHED/HOUSE its a two bed ground level detached unit that sleeps 5 people. Both properties are in the grounds of our family home. These property is in the core of the dark sky reserve. On a clear night the stars are amazing to view from the lawn. We are a 4 mile drive to the port of Portmagee where you can get one of the many boats to Skellig Michael.
We have been looking after holiday homes since 2012. We have a small dog called woodie who lives outside and loves meeting new people. We look forward to welcoming you to our home.
It’s a very quite area by night. The road is busy by day with car traveling to and from Portmagee and Cahersiveen.
