Very spacious - fully equipped in the kitchen and throughout. We particularly enjoyed the surrounding scenery with the location of the house in the hills. Loved the views from every window and such a peaceful setting. Although some might find the area remote, it is just 7 miles from the lively town of Kenmare and 5 minutes drive from Bonane Heritage Park which we found very interesting. We would definitely recommend staying in The Skating Rock and would stay there again!
