Dingle Peninsula: Beautiful house 'An Máimín' Ballyferriter, Dingle

Nestled in the picturesque village of Baile an Fheirtearaigh / Ballyferriter in the Dingle Peninsula, this beautiful house boasts three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a tv room and a large kitchen / dining area. With spectacular views of the three sisters to the front, and the Croaghmarhin mountain at the back, it is only a minutes' stroll to the village.

AUGUST Bookings are from Saturday to Saturday. The latest film set attraction to Ballyferriter / Ceann Sibéal is Star Wars, which was filmed during May / June 2016.

Lonnaithe i sráidbhaile Baile an Fheirtéaraigh i leithinis Chorca Dhuibhne, teach álainn le 3 seomraí leapa, trí seomraí folctha, seomra teilifíse agus a cistine/seomra bidh. Radharc álainn amach ar na trí deirfiúracha chun tosaigh, agus ar chúl Cruach Marthain.

Ideal for families as you are spoilt for choice with miles of sandy beaches on your doorstep – Beal Ban, Clogher, Coumeenole and Wine Strand to name but a few. Golf enthusiasts won't be disappointed either, as the renowned Dingle golf links (Ceann Sibéal) is only a 5 minute drive away. Breathtaking views guaranteed on this course! The area is a haven walkers, cyclists, runners and anyone fond of the outdoors.

Baile an Fheirtearaigh is on the Slea Head drive and is only 10 minutes from Dunquin (Dún Chaoin) pier where you can take a boat to the Great Blasket Island. Your closest town is Dingle, famed for many things, including the Dingle Dolphin 'Fungie' and a boat trip from Dingle pier to see him up close is a must!

Fancy speaking a 'cupla focal' – a few words in Irish - then you have come to the right place. Baile an Fheirtearaigh (Ballyferriter) is in the heart of the Gaeltacht or Irish speaking area. It is rich in culture, traditions, language and music.

After a long day of activities, a short walk (1 minute from the house) will take you to the four pubs in the village where food is available and lively traditional music most nights during the summer period.

A place of immense beauty and tranquility and a house with all the modern comforts needed to make your stay a pleasure. What more could you ask for!

Beautiful place for a quiet stay
This is a beautiful property on the quiet and relaxing Dingle Peninsula. Large bedrooms and ample bathrooms are greatly appreciated especially when coupled with a very functional kitchen with full sizes appliances. Amazing views from the living room and both upstairs bedrooms add to the enjoyment of this house. It is in a very quiet neighborhood; a perfect base for exploring the peninsula and surrounding County Kerry. Michael was very easy to make arrangements with when planning our trip. He responded quickly and made the process effortless. You cannot hope to find a host better than Sharon. She was attentive without being obtrusive, gave wonderful recommendations, and treated us like family. We will definitely plan on staying here on our next trip to Kerry.

Another perfect week
After our wonderful first stay at An Maimin last year, we knew we would return as soon as we could. We had another lovely week of seaside cliff walks, hill hikes and strolls to and along the local beach. This area is so beautiful and the home is the perfect location from which to explore and enjoy all of the natural wonders surrounding it. There are also three pubs and a hotel a 5 minute walk (or less) away, all of which serve up good pints and food and Dingle is a quick drive for even more options. The home is impeccably kept and has everything you need to make meals or enjoy evenings at home, reading in front of a peat fire or enjoying a drink on the patio. The beds are comfortable and it is quiet and peaceful. The hosts are fantastic. Micheal is a prompt communicator and his sister Sharon is also quick to respond and a blast to chat with. On the one chilly, windy, rainy day we had during the week, she showed up with more peat and wood to make sure we cold enjoy a cozy fire---lovely! She is kind, down-to-earth and fun and we were delighted to see her again and catch up. We look forward to our next trip to An Maimin soon.

Great house
We spent a really lovely week at Micheal’s house in this beautiful part of the world. The house is very comfortable and well equipped. The downstairs bedroom is ideal for anyone with mobility difficulties. There’s a lovely private little garden with great views. The Slea Head drive was breathtaking in the fine weather. Sharon is a wonderfully warm and kind host. I highly recommend this property.

Incredible!!
This place was absolute perfection! We had NO clue where we were going, and didn't know much about the best places to stay in Ireland but we found this place online only a few weeks before we went, and it turned out to be the most amazing thing we did! First of all, the place was darling! And Sharon, who manages it, was absolutely adorable! We had so much fun getting to know her and she was so helpful immediately if we ever needed anything. She gave us information of places to go and we found that to be so helpful to us! The Slea Head drive is so amazing and Sharon was a wealth of information of where to go. We'd go again in a heartbeat! As far as the house goes, it was so comfortable and enjoyable. The beds are incredible, and that was a huge thing. The kitchen is well stocked. They have a fireplace, which was very helpful as a few days were a bit chilly. There isn't much in the way of TV channels but that was ok. They do have a cute little "reading" room that does have a TV that can play DVD's only but there weren't many videos available. But that was no biggie because there's so much more to do that you hardly have time to sit and watch a movie anyway! The place is a bit out there on the tip of the Dingle Peninsula but the longer we were there, the more we loved being off the beaten path. I would recommend this place over and over again! You won't go wrong staying there.

Perfect!
Wow!! We have to repeat--Wow! We absolutely loved "our home" at An Maimin in Ballyferriter. Everything from booking to the too-quick end of our stay was perfect. Micheal and Sharon were terrific hosts throughout. The house is situated in beautiful, laid-back Ballyferriter, only a couple of minutes walk to a small shop with basic essentials and the local pubs, all of which are welcoming and serve up good drinks and food. It is also a pleasant walk away from one of the stunning local beaches and a very short drive to any of the other beautiful beaches and historical, scenic attractions along Slea Head Drive. Also within a short drive are loads of walking/hiking trails and hill and cliff walks that range in difficulty from easy to more strenuous (Mount Brandon--well worth the effort). The views from the house are fantastic as are the views in almost any direction from almost any location in the area. Just stunning! The drive to Dingle town is easy and under 15 minutes so it was easy to take in traditional music, enjoy a meal, shop for local art and crafts or stock up on groceries. The house is immaculately maintained and clean. It is supplied with everything you need to relax, cook at home, enjoy a pint or cocktail in the lovely outdoor sitting area or snuggle up with a book in front of a peat fire in the living area. The beds are very comfortable, it is a peaceful setting and made for a perfect week of settling in and recharging after a long 2+ year hiatus from travel due to the pandemic. We felt so at home immediately. Now, the best part: the hosts. Micheal was a great communicator from booking to check-in and quick to respond to any queries. His sister Sharon was the most welcoming, warm, charming, and gracious host while we were there. She also responded quickly to any messages. She met us there and made sure we knew all of the details about the home and how to use all of the incredible amenities. We enjoyed meeting her and were very happy to spend a bit of time with a local who gave us great tips and recommendations and shared some laughs (and who is a native Irish speaker). We have been to Ireland many times and, in particular, to the Dingle Peninsula. Without a doubt, this was the best experience we have had with any accommodation and host. That is saying something, given the beauty of Ireland and the incredible people there. We will most definitely return as soon as we can. Cheers, Kim & Paul

Love Balleyferriter - Baile an Fheirtearaigh
We loved "our" house in Balleyferriter. It was clean, cozy and near everything we wanted in a vacation destination. There were a few glitches but our new friend Sharon helped us each time. She was kind, attentive and helpful, all that you would want or need to assist with questions or concerns. We would love to go back. We love Dingle and know friends there and in Abbeydorney. Would definitely recommend this lovely home. The view from the bedrooms was exquisite!

Escape to the West....!
After waiting so long to get over to Ballyferriter due lockdown. We were thrilled to be able to finally get there. We love the West of Ireland and it was a real treat and privilege to be able to be there. The lovely Sharon met us at the Cottage and filled us in with all the main details and then we started our holiday. It was great to have the shop just a short distance down the road from us. It has a great selection of goods and essentials. It was even better to have the three pubs and hotel such a short distance away in the Village, which we really enjoyed. Having an evening in each and a few statuary Guinness, it would have been rude not too! There is a lovely relaxed atmosphere in the Village, just what we needed after the anxiety of lockdown. We were made to feel very welcome in all the pubs and hotel. We enjoyed some great evenings and lovely food. We visited The Blasket Islands which was a wonderful experience allied with a very informative talk on Great Blasket about life in the Islands. On our journey back we were thrilled to see Common Dolphins, Seals, Minky and Humpback Whale. There are good walking opportunities in the area too. I walked The Three Sisters and there is a lovely walk on the beach along the beach at Smerwick Harbour. We also hired electric bicycles from Dingle Bikes for two days, again a great way to see the peninsula in a more manageable fashion.We also booked a taxi and had an evening in Dingle. I forgot to mention that we were blessed with lovely weather too, which always helps. What was really good too was that when we returned to the Cottage in the evenings, how comfortable it was, the bedrooms and kitchen and cooking facilities were spot on. So overall I'd would say this break was just what we needed and in a beautiful part of the World, in lovely accommodation, who could ask for more. Thank you again Sharon and Micheal from John, Michael and Michael.
