We picked Lark Cottage because of the views and location, but got much more than we anticipated. “Close to golf & beach” means 3 minute walk to Tralee golf course; beach access is through the golf course! Views out the front window are across Tralee Bay to Dingle Penninsula and to Ardfert and beyond out the back. Interesting restaurants, each with different personalities, are within 10-15 minute drive. Activities are boundless, including hiking, horse trekking, horse races in season, and of course golf at Balleyheigue, Castlegregory nearby and others more distant. Lark Cottage is a comfortable place to plan the day’s excursions, relax and share memories at day’s end. Kieran and family have thought of everything from the welcome gift of a bottle of wine and apple tart to games, videos, music, books, and lots of brochures and guide books to all you need in the kitchen, outside in the yard, and in every room in the house. There are throws to snuggle while reading and wi-if to connect as needed. Unfortunately the weather was not good during our visit, but we watched storm Hector come on shore and learned to brave the Irish climate while still doing everything we planned and more. We found driving on the small country roads challenging, and had to add time into all our excursions to allow for getting off course. We decided to drive to Shannon the day before our flight home in order to make an early morning flight without driving at night. Thank you Kieran and family for sharing Lark Cottage with us. We take home many fond memories.
