The Seagull Cottage was so quaint and clean and in such a great location! The owners were very easy to communicate with and friendly. Plenty of parking out front of the cottage which was situated in a rural farm area, sheep all around and green rolling hills. A 10 minute walk to the tiny town of Port Magee, it's tiny, but all the people are super friendly, with a cute local pub (I would recommend the seafood chowder) and an excellent restaurant for dinner...I had the Guiness Irish stew, was delicious. There is also a waterfront restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. From this area you can take a boat to Skellig Michael, two land masses, one housing a plethora of birds and the other a monastery that has 500? stairs to walk up (depending on the season), well worth the trip. Also near the Cottage was the Cliffs of Kerry, absolutely stunning!! a must do. I loved the feel and vibe of the Seagull cottage, and Port Magee, wished I could have stayed longer. The property is really well looked after and the breakfast in the breakfast room was wonderful, was nice to talk to people and see what they were doing for the day or had done to recommend. There was a great variety of breakfast options and the mellow music was a really nice touch. I particularly enjoyed the French presses for morning coffee :), thank you. Also, being a huge IKEA fan I loved all the IKEA touches. I would highly recommend The Seagull cottage and Port Magee for a relaxed, quiet place to stay. Well done!

We stayed in Portmagee for our booked tour to Skellig Michael (which was fabulous!). Andy welcomed us to Sea Gull cottage and made us feel right at home. Plenty of parking available. There are three local restaurants available in Portmagee and we ate at The Moorings both nights (make reservations as is very popular) and had tea at the Skellig Restaurant, both of which were great. Unfortunately, the sounds from the room above us, our first night at the cottage, were quite loud, but with earplugs, ok. The continental breakfast each morning was great with several choices, most amazing was Andy's homemade granola. We very much enjoyed our visit. Andy was a great host, welcoming and knowledgeable. The room we stayed in, could use some shelves in the bathroom for leaving toiletry bags etc... but otherwise, it was a really lovely room.

BEAUTIFUL Gateway to the Skelligs!

What an absolute STUNNING location! Check in was simple, rooms were clean, large and modern. Side note: location is an escape from the world, a such, there are no TV’s in the rooms. Come here to unplug, decompress ands ENJOY the serenity of Portmagee! A short, 1-mile walk down the street takes you directly to awesome pubs and the docks! The owner Andy was kind and helpful. I HIGHLY recommend Seagull Cottage!

Very nice B&B if you've plan to attend Skelling island tour. Really walkable from the pier to the B&B and very not far from the Kerry's cliffs also. Very clean and Andy is awesome. Very enjoyed my stay there.

Can’t wait to come back!

This is the sweetest place that feels like it is literally at the end of the earth. 1.5 miles to kerry cliffs. Doesn’t feel like a tourist trap. Andy was incredibly accommodating. Great continental breakfast with homemade granola and scones.
