     Gallarus Cottage is a self-catering accommodation located on Southwest Ireland's beautiful Dingle Peninsula, just a 10-minute drive from the town of An Daingean — Dingle. The old-style traditional cottage is situated near the Gallarus Oratory, Ireland's best-preserved and possibly most-perfect Early Christian church building, dating to about 800 A.D.

Gallarus Cottage enjoys spectacular views of Ballydavid Harbour and is surrounded by roaming hills. Just a short stroll away is a safe, sandy beach, and there's a brook beside the house. Many of the scenes from the movie "Ryan's Daughter" were filmed in the area. While staying at Gallarus Castle, you can relax and enjoy a pint of Guinness with the locals in the many pubs located close by. Here you will experience Irish culture at its best.

Built in 2002, Gallarus Cottage is furnished to a high standard with wooden floors and antique furniture throughout. Our wardrobes are from Killarney's Great Southern Hotel! This exquisite Dingle Peninsula accommodation is set on its own 1-1/2 acre grounds right in the heart of the Dingle Peninsula's Gaeltaech area, one of six Irish-speaking areas in Ireland.

 

Gallarus Cottage is spacious and luxurious, and can sleep 8 people in 4 bedrooms (3 double rooms and 1 twin room with two single beds). Each bedroom has an original iron and brass bed and antique furniture. Three of the bedrooms have sinks from Louis Mulcahy Pottery, while the fourth bedroom is ensuite, with its own bathroom. One of the bathrooms features a 12-jet jacuzzi bath.

The kitchen/dining room is bright and airy, and features maple shaker-style fitted kitchen cabinets. From the kitchen are doors leading on to the patio, complete with patio furniture. The kitchen is well equipped, including a dishwasher, microwave oven, fridge-freezer, a hob, and built-in oven. The adjacent utility room has a washing machine and dryer.

The lounge/sitting room boasts a magnificent Victorian slate open fireplace, a chaise lounge, and a television. Many of the pieces of furniture in this area are mahogany. The bay window, which is a feature of the living room, has spectacular views of Smerwick Harbour and Ballydavid Bay.
