Where you’ll be

Portmagee, County Kerry, Ireland

Our cottages and farmhouses are located on the world famous Wild Atlantic Way! We are only 4 kilometers from Bray Head which is 1 of 15 signature discovery points on the entire 2,500 kilometer route which goes from Donegal to Cork. There are also numerous discovery points in the locality; we recommend that people download the Wild Atlantic Way app for further information.
Our properties are located just 3 kilometers from the charming fishing village of Portmagee. Portmagee is located in the South West of Ireland in the beautiful county of Kerry. The cottages sit on the coastline and look across the water to Valentia Island. They are on the waterfront with large open lawns, natural hedging and direct access to the seashore. We have two moorings in case you wish to bring your boat!

My work: Portmagee Seaside Cottages
Lives in Portmagee, Ireland
Portmagee Seaside Cottages is a family run business. The family is made up of Elizabeth and James and our children Paul (living and working in London and New York), Aisling (living and working in Australia) and Roisin (living and working in Cork). We also have a farm with pedigree Charolais cows and ducks. We have very good local knowledge of all that is going on, we can recommend nice places to visit and know all the local boat and activity operators. In our spare time (which can be limited!) we are avid walkers. We would be happy to advise our guests on walking routes in the locality and time permitting might also be available to lead our guests on a walk.
