Rowantree

The house is extraordinarily well equipped and situated in a calm, rural street.

Contact to the owner was very easy, friendly and helpful with hints to supermarkets and restaurants. We were really enthusiastic when we stepped into the house as it is big, airy and bright.

A well equipped and maintained cottage, we very much enjoyed our stay here for 2 weeks.

The beds were all very comfortable. The information provided by the owner prior to our stay was all very helpful. It is in a great location for exploring the area in all directions, so plenty of things to do. The young deer in the garden were very inquisitive and came really close. Very close to two cafes and Kate Kearney's bar and restaurant. As with all rural locations having a car is very useful.

Rowantree is the most perfect holiday cottage.

It was perfect for us as a couple, and I can imagine it's wonderful for a family. It is well suited for Killarney as well as exploring the national park and Co Kerry more widely. We were delighted to find ourselves literally in the Gap of Dunloe! Ellen was an excellent host, she was very responsive and had fantastic recommendations for the area.

Need to trim Bush around the entrance, so you can see the house name.

What a wonderful place, would recommend to anyone.

A delightfully homely well-appointed cottage - beautifully decorated and furnished, fresh white linen, books, an open fire and wood burner in the kitchen. What more could you ask for? Deer in the backyard, Nell the horse over the fence, and a short walk to the spectacular scenery of Dunloe and the delights of Kate Kearneys Cottage (fantastic fare) and Moriaty's shop (beautiful clothing and gifts). We were very sad to leave and will definitely return one day.

Rowantree is in a beautiful rural location, yet conveniently close to Killkenny which is a 10 minute drive away.

Rowantree is very homely and has all the conveniences of a home away from home.

Had a lovely week at Rowantree.

Went with my brother & my son who has special needs . The cottage was very comfortable, ideally situated to get into killarney & the ring of kerry , and many other places .. The Gap of Dunloe is a 10 min walk , & Kate Kearneys cottage has music 7 nights a week & great food .. Was lovely to wake up every morning to the view of the sheep , in the field next door & the lovely horse.. And some days even deer in the garden .. We will definatly be back ...

House was perfect just a short drive to Killarney .

We stayed for 1 week it’s spacious clean and in a great location owner easy to contact if anything needed . Will definitely be back .

Beautiful location, the cottage had a spacious garden with space at the back and front ideal for kids.

The owner was very helpful.

Wouldn’t hesitate to book in future or recommend the Rowantree cottage.

Brilliant location with good pub walking distance away. Host Ellen was very helpful with lots of recommendations before our holiday.

We had a lovely stay in Rowantree.

It is in a brilliant location, within walking distance of the truly stunning Gap of Dunloe and a 15 minute car journey to Cronin's Yard which is a starting point to climb the highest mountain in Ireland with breathtaking views. It is also a 15 minute car journey to Tomies Wood, which has a lovely walk to O'Sullivans Cascade, a magical waterfall on the edge of Lough Leane. The cottage was comfortable and relaxing with the advantage of front and back gardens to sit out in. There is so much to see and enjoy that a week was not long enough!

The house is very charming: it' s very spacious, the beds are very comfortable, and is located in a lovely area, very near the Gap of Dunloe.

the hostess provides useful advices on restaurants and tourism.

Nice house with a garden at the entrance of the Gap of Dunloe.

Excellent location for excursions in the surroundings. You can't feel more in Ireland with sheep meadow behind and next to the house.

A couple more mirrors would be nice.

Loved it!

Beautiful cottage in perfect location near Gap of Dunloe.

Very comfortable furnishings, fully equipped kitchen. Very nice garden with seated areas to enjoy the stunning scenery. Highly recommended.

Perfect Location

We had a fantastic week away in County Kerry.

(Mother, Father and two young children). The accommodation was excellent, spacious and comfortable. The peace and tranquility was even better than expected. The children loved the visiting horses every morning. Approximately 6 miles outside Killarney was no issue and the accommodation was only half a mile from the Gap of Dunloe. Ballybunion, Tralee, Dingle, Kenmare, Sneem, all visited during holiday. Brilliant time had by all

Rowantree is a lovely warm clean cottage located to give you a quiet and safe retreat while being in a prime location to explore Killarney National Park, the Gap of Dunloe, ring of Kerry and Dingle.

We walked to the Gap a couple of times and couldnt get enough of the scenery and the unique mystery of the mountain and valley setting. The time at home after exploring was comfortable - sheets and towels superb, comfortable bed, good kitchen facilities for cooking your own meal and quality furnishings. The house was uncluttered and had nice touches such as good reading lamps in the lounge and bedrooms, an open fire - we didn’t need as heating system was excellent (late October), a TV with good reception and excellent wifi and a second toilet in the house.

We had a fabulous week at Rowantree where we immediately felt at home.

Stunning location and well placed for sampling much of what Kerry has to offer. Would love to return some time.

This is a very comfortable, well equipped cottage in a beautiful location.

There is so much to do and see in the area; a week was not enough.

Lovely cottage situated very near the gap of Dunloe.

which Is ten minutes walk.The scenery is breath taking around the cottage, The cottage itself is very warming and inviting.Try Kate Kearneys for you evening meal and entertainment, good food.Irish music.and dancers

We LOVE visiting Killarney!

Rowantree was a quaint little cottage not fair from the Gap of Dunloe. In the morning, you could open your bedroom windows and face the majestic mountains of Kerry. It was close enough to pubs and shops but a little bit out of the city which worked perfectly for us. I will definitely plan on visiting Rowantree again in the future, maybe during summer! :)

Nice older cottage located close to the Gap of Dunloe.

We stayed for a week in October and the house was warm and cosy. All was clean and sufficient. The garden looks very inviting, but it was too cold to sit in it. Some horses from the neighbouring property visited by the fence and even some small deer did. It was a pleasant stay.

This is a very comfortable bungalow and I would definitely stay there again.

However, if we were there in the summer it would be nice to have comfortable garden (reclining) chairs. At present, there are just wooden benches, which are not so suitable for spending an afternoon

Our stay at the Rowantree cottage could not have been better.

Located perfectly in the Gap of Dunloe, within the Ring of Kerry and a stone throw away from the nicest attractions in county Kerry. The host Ellen is helpful and kind. We had all the necessities we required in the cottage, an equipped kitchen with dishwasher, a washing machine and a dryer. There is a nice wooden bench is the front garden surrounded by trees and bushes and there is another wooden bench at the back garden overlooking a large field, regularly visited by deer, horses and wild rabbit. I was told that this is also visited by a beaver, but we were not so lucky to see it. We were 6 adults and a child. 2 comfy double bedrooms and another triple bedroom, all with large windows overlooking the front or back garden. My kid spent hours at the window, enjoying the wildlife and views. Will definitely recommend this cottage.

The cottage location is excellent just at the head of the Gap of Dunloe but in easy access to other areas of interest.

only thatit was fab !
