Seal Rock Cottage is situated on Rossmore Island - connected to the famous Ring of Kerry by an ancient stone bridge – and this marvellous natural setting is perfectly complemented by this craftsman made, interior designed property.
The
inside of this luxury cottage has been planned by Andrew Burch, the
acclaimed Welsh Interior Designer and the accommodation includes: a
sitting room, designed to be the quiet room with library and
games cupboard with an open, peat burning fire; a sun room
with a flat screen home entertainment system, cast iron stove and
stunning ocean views.

The grounds are sympathetically landscaped for maximum appreciation of the panoramic island, mountain and ocean views and to retain many of the existing natural features including a stream, mini-waterfalls and pools. The one acre grounds lead to the water’s edge with a path following the stream down to the ocean, over a bridge ending at a waterside terrace and private beach. Guests may sit, relax and enjoy the spectacular views and observe seals and sea otters basking on the rocks. The private beach, reached by steps from the terrace is suitable for fishing, bathing or the landing of small craft. |

Local area |
||
|
Seal Rock Cottage is situated on Rossmore Island - connected to the famous Ring of Kerry by an ancient stone bridge - and lies 5 miles from Sneem and 11 miles from the gourmet town of Kenmare, renowned for its fine-dining restaurants and music-filled traditional pubs (a mere 15 minutes away). Beyond the nearby McGillycuddy’s Reeks lie the famous lakes and town of Killarney – a mere one hour’s drive. Also within 90 minutes are the world class golf courses of the Ring of Kerry (10 minutes), Tralee, Ballybunion, Dooks and Waterville. The region has unequalled scenery and because the shore is washed by the Gulf Stream, the area enjoys a mild climate where tropical plants flourish outdoors. The Ring of Kerry follows the coastline and is one of the most dramatic scenic drives in Europe. A multitude of interests and activities are available including walking, riding, cycling, canoeing, fishing, boating and golf. Guides & Ghillies can be arranged. |
