    Awesome accodomation on a most lovely island!

    This was our third trip to Ireland as a familiy and actually we had several accomodations, but Kate's Cottage was the best experience so far! This place is comfortable and the facilities are completely on a high standard. Most important is to mention, that Kate is an awesome host: We had several problems, where we needed support and Kate was incredibly helpful! Also Valentia Island is the perfect spot for family holiday, cause there is so much to do in the closer sorroundings and Knightstown is just lovely. We strongly hope, that we will get the chance to return someday!
