We only stopped for a cup of tea and some biscuits, but quickly realized we should have booked all our nights here. The owner was wonderful, and everything about this Country House and the setting made us want to stay. It may be one the the most beautiful spots on earth. We stayed at three wonderful inns on our trip,... more

Tahilla Cove was the perfect place for a stop along the Ring of Kerry, just off the beaten path, but well within the hub-bub of all things that a traveler wants to see in SW Ireland. The Waterhouse family was incredibly nice and very accomodating. The on-site pub really allowed us to relax and have a pint or three without... more

We did not meet the whole family as we arrived at the end of the season and they were busy elsewhere. However, we did meet James who warmly welcomed us into his home, rather than just a house. As well as the cosy house on a rainy evening, and the beauty of the surroundings on a sun kissed morning, James... more

It's impossible to find anything wrong with Tahilla Cove. James, Diedre and the family welcome you right from the start. The rooms are large and well appointed, and the views across the bay are breathtaking. Breakfast is a feast, enough to keep you going the whole day, and the turn-down service is a lovely touch to make the room welcoming... more

I wasn't sure when I booked what type of place this would be. it sounded nice from reviews, but I hadn't seen very many pictures.

Definitely out... more

No hesitation at all to book a stay at this heavenly place! We just arrived at Tahilla Cove and we were greeted by James who is a so true gentleman without forgetting Deirdre who is so adorably soft spoken and their son Charles off course who is a real professional attending your slightest needs. It was just bliss to be... more

The nicest people, wonderful meals, large and attractive room. Lovely bathroom. I'm raving about this to my friends. Sit on the deck, they have a cozy bar on site, lovely library room. Very traditional and so much more. more

We stayed at Tahilla Cove Country House as our base for touring the Ring of Kerry and Ring of Beara Peninsula. And what an idyllic location this is. The Country House is set among lush gardens and woodland on the shores of Kenmare Bay, with gardens reaching down to the seashore and the most wonderful views out on to the... more

Our stay at Tahilla Cove was the absolute highlight of a wonderful two week trip in May/June in Southwestern Ireland. Unique--with the palms, flowers and twelve beautiful acres on the water, we felt enough like we were in the South Pacific to swim right off the dock (chilly, but fun!) Our roomy, comfortable room had a patio overlooking the water;... more
