Waterville: Waterville is situated in the heart of Ireland's most spectacular beautiful area, The Ring of Kerry.
It is famous for its world ranked golf course, its trout and salmon angling and its golden sandy beaches. Waterville lies on a narrow strip of land between the Athlantic and Lough Currane. Waterville and its surrounding area offers a number of breathtaking walks and places to see. The most scenic of these walks is the Coomakista Pass.
Waterville village has many fine restaurants, pubs, shops, craft stores, post office, garage, internet cafés and coffee shops. The village has attracted many famous celebrities over the years, Charlie Chaplin, Tiger Woods, Payne Stewart, Mark O'Meara.......to name but a few.
There are the most astounding views from this elevated site and sitting out will be a real pleasure. Quiet and in a peaceful, relaxed area, there is the added bonus of travelling and touring just a mile down the road, where you can go into Waterville for water activities, including sea fishing, sailing, swimming and safe beaches.

Links Golf combines sand dunes gorse and native grasses, firm fairways, sod faced bunkers and subtle putting surfaces all intertwined by the ever changing weather. Forget the lob wedge. Think bump and run creative shot making. Are you ready to are walk in the footsteps of the earliest golfers. http://www.watervillegolfclub.ie/

Overlooking the magistic Ballinskelligs Bay and set among natural megalithic stonework and indigenous Bog Deal, there can be few places more visually stunning locations for a golf course than Hogs Head.

Here the awesome beauty of the Bay hits you as you play through holes framed by over 8000 yards of ancient 'famine' walls.'Skellig Bay is full of challenging golf holes', says the the Sunday Independent Golf correspondent Dermot

Lake House is a beautiful property in an idyllic location. Close enough to the village for essentials but beautiful and quiet. The kids had a great time in the gardens as did our family dog. The house has everything you could require with so much space and both indoor and outdoor dining options. We loved sitting out of an evening enjoying the ever changing view and sunset.

A view to die for!

Secluded house with amazing views of Lough Currane; plenty of room and parking. Everything we needed was in the house. Wonderful to sit outside and picnic over the lough and then watch the sunsets late into the evening. Waterville a short drive away to shops, bars, restaurants and beach. We loved our stay there.

Wonderful family stay in gorgeous location

Kathleen was the perfect host and her holiday home was honestly incredible. So much space and light with beautiful views from every window. Kathleen was so accommodating when we had to add an extra guest to the party and came over to talk us through everything. The location is brilliant for exploring the Skelligs and this beautiful part of the Kerry ring All in all, it was all just standout brilliant and my only regret is that we weren't staying another week!

Great House

We rented the house for a week long golf outing in Ireland. The property is ideally located with several outstanding golf courses within an hours drive. Waterville offers good restaurants and pubs. The house was perfect. A great place for our needs. Kathleen met us when we arrived and was more than helpful. I would highly recommend staying at this property for your visit to the Ring Of Kerry.

Wonderful In Soooo Many Ways

We have fallen in love with Waterville, the (very blessed to live there) locals, the absolutely incredible Lake House (as we now call it), it’s stunning views and most especially our hosts, Kathleen and Timmy. And, we can’t forget to mention their darling dog, Freddie. What I was looking for in a house was a peat burning fire, location, views, and near a village. This is me….my husband also loved the spacious house, not that I didn’t. Timmy made certain we had plenty of peat. He even rescued a sheep that got stuck in a fence in a neighbor’s pasture that we noticed and let him know. Kathleen made sure all our needs were taken care of. They went above and beyond making our stay incredible. So many adjectives, I know…..but well deserved! Please say hello to Dan and Fiona, the owners of our favorite pub, Mick O’Dwyers. We miss everyone already! We WILL be back! Kris and Lori

Idyllic

Sheep bleat peacefully in the field below, rabbits meander across the lawn, the view of the loch is entrancing from Lake House on Lake Road. Ireland treated us to warm, dry weather so we trekked Kerry Way, Skellig Bay, and the Cliffs of Kerry enjoying the emerald green hills and azure blue seas. Do you know that cows come trotting if you sing to them? Waterville County Kerry, not to be confused with the other nearby Waterville County Limerick, would seem to be “far from the madding crowd” in southwest County Kerry, but as a popular tourist stop on the Ring of Kerry, it provides both little breakfast nooks and evening fine dining. If the local grocery doesn’t meet your needs (it did ours) bigger towns and bigger stores are not far. Just two of us, we rattled around in the big house, but enjoyed the front room with an expansive view north to the loch, morning sun rays on the clouds to the right and stunning sunsets to the left. Living in always-beautiful Southern California, we looked forward to traditional cold-windy-rainy Irish weather and the peat fueled fireplace to provide a cozy spot to read and sip Red Breast Irish whiskey. But, sadly, the only rain we saw was driving back to Dublin, so we never lit the fire. Someone wrote that if they’d had more time they could have made their letter shorter, and that’s true of this review, too. Truth is, idyllic says it all.

Celebrated a special occasion in a wonderful setting.

The house is set in a fabulous location just outside of Waterville with beautiful views of the lake and sunsets. It is very spacious, clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for our family holiday. I would say the photos do not do it justice. Communication with Kathleen was excellent and she was very welcoming on arrival and when we were leaving. As a family of 8, with 3 generations from 10 to 70 years we would highly recommend this holiday home and hope to return next year!
