Guest testimonials

Absolutely perfect! From the Irish cheese to the Guinness-walnut bread to the lovely hike out the back door to the stunning views from every angle, this is a very special place. Hope to be back! Also, the owner´s restaurant and hiking recommendations are spot on!

A truly magical place. We leave here today having made some beautiful memories. Thank you for sharing this sanctuary with us all.

What a wonderful week we have had. A real escape from the world. We have loved every minute of our visit to this wonderful place. The cottage and surrounds are so beautiful we will miss this peaceful place with its magical surroundings. Thank you for your hospitality. We will definitely be back for a return visit.

We were made to feel most welcome in “our” cottage as soon as we arrived. From learning about glaciers that shaped the land, to hearing stories about Badger O’Shea; our conversation with the owner helped us feel immediately connected to the property. The views are phenomenal, the bed linens luxurious, and the welcome basket divine. Our visit was restorative, refreshing, and I’ll admit I cried a little when it was time to leave. We certainly hope to return one day!

We had a wonderful time at Lost Cottage. The owner is an excellent host and it was a very nice surprise to find a basket with lovely products from the local area. Even the weather was quite kind to us! I have already told a number of friends about this ideal getaway!

We arrived at Lost Cottage and were welcomed with a hamper of local produce; it was wonderful and contained some particularly delicious bread and cheeses. The property was exactly what we needed; remote, peaceful and with excellent views. Lost Cottage was spotlessly clean and had every convenience necessary to make our stay comfortable. At the end of a busy day exploring, we would light up the outdoor fire bowl and sit and relax as the sun set. We ate home-cooked meals in the cottage every evening and found that the kitchen had every facility we could possibly need. Thank you for such a tremendous holiday.

Thank you so much for a perfect week for us both. What an amazing and relaxing home you have. Waking up and looking out over the lake was quite something. We both don´t want to leave and get back to reality. Our stay couldn´t have been better, so much so we are already talking of when we can return. Thank you again.

The property is simply stunning. The location and the scenic views would be hard to beat. The tranquil setting, sheep, trickling stream and having peace and quiet and the amazing walks all in one place has been a real treat! The owner was a true gentleman and made us feel very welcome and took the time to show us around the property. The new year we spent there will be one we will never forget with luxury at every stage!

The property was exactly what we needed - it was remote, peaceful and had excellent views. Lost Cottage was also spotlessly clean and had every convenience necessary to make our stay comfortable. At the end of a busy day exploring the beautiful area of West Kerry, we would light a fire in the outdoor fire bowl and sit and relax as the sun set. We ate home cooked meals in the cottage every evening and found that the kitchen had every facility we could possibly need.

This property is extraordinary. The tranquillity, privacy, and views are marvellous. The uniquely designed structure contrasts the traditional croft with the superbly modern master bedroom and bath. The home and its contents are clean and attractive. The host is wonderful and provided impeccable recommendations, detailed excursions, delicious local specialities, and a generous welcome. The owner has clearly put his heart and soul into the property and into making each guest’s stay, however short, wonderful. We look forward to booking again next year.

The remote lakeside townland of Treangarriv in County Kerry was once home to a herd of mountain goats, who used this abandoned retreat to shelter from Irish winters. Decades later, the owner transformed the ruined cottage into a luxury hideaway. Balancing tradition and innovation, the restoration blends heritage techniques and locally sourced materials with modern design, creating a peaceful space that feels harmonious with its surroundings, nestled between emerald farmland and cloud-shrouded mountains.  Read more...
