Combining winning architectural choices – like floor to ceiling windows, a charming entry hall, and a mezzanine lounge that creates interest and adds depth to the space – with spectacular, sprawling views of Kenmare Bay, this home is the ideal setting for a tranquil holiday. We bet you can already see yourself stacking logs in the lounge’s fireplace and curling up on the sofa with a good book. The statement brick wall goes a long way in adding a rustic, cottagey touch to the home, that goes a long way in making you feel at home. Breakfast has never looked as good as it does from the vantage point at the dining table, and that’s all thanks to the windows – almost as if they’re trying to creep skyward, they sprawl from floor to ceiling and curve around to let in ample light. Of course, the view you’re able to observe from here also gets some of the credit in making it special. For a closer look of the panoramic landscape, you can take up your post at the bench outside. When you’re ready to wander, drive eleven minutes to the historic little town of Kenmare. Origins can be dated all the way back to 1775 and it’s somehow retained some of that old world charm.
