A pair of old stone coastguard cottages renovated to a high standard in a unique setting 25 yards from their own shingle beach with breathtaking views over the lovely Kenmare estuary off the southern tip of the beautiful "Ring of Kerry" in south-west Ireland.
Pier Cottage can be rented throughout the year as two separate units, East End sleeps 2-4 and West End up to 7, or one inter-connecting cottage, with flexible accommodation sleeping up to eleven. Both ends of the cottage provide internet access.
This is an ideal holiday venue for those wanting to bring a boat, as there is always safe mooring available in the little harbour and a slipway for launching beside the pier. Apart from excellent mackerel and other deep sea angling , there is good rock fishing in the immediate locality.

Reviews
Just to let you know that the cottage, the surroundings and the weather all surpassed our expectations, we had a wonderful time and all 3 of us are likely to return one day sooner or later. VdeB, Netherlands
We have stayed at East End, Pier Cottage on two occasions and both times had wonderful relaxing weeks. It is such an idyllic location – quiet but within easy reach of beautiful beaches and scenic car rides. We whiled away the hours in front of the Cottage and were delighted when seals appeared in the waters below. We were fascinated to see the statue of Charlie Chaplin in nearby Waterville (he was a regular visitor). The Lakes of Killarney are within easy reach by car and are spectacular, especially if the mountain route is taken. A trip to the Skelligs was unmissable – the birds and seal sanctuary something only seen before on TV. There are so many suggestions for outings that many visits would be needed. Pier Cottage is the perfect holiday base for families or couples. ET, UK
