Overlooking Portmagee’s busy harbour, The Moorings Guesthouse is just a 30-second walk from the pier, offering elegant rooms with marble bathrooms.

This small settlement offers everything I needed for this trip and everything is within reach - the comfort and equipment of the room are very good - and the breakfast is very tasty where everyone will choose something for themselves and will be very satisfied

    A super cozy, spacious and inviting property with terrace, garden, two bathrooms, well-equipped kitchen, free ample parking space right in front, a very friendly and helpful host, sea shore in walking distance, quiet surroundings -- all conditions met for a relaxing holiday! The property is in Ardcost, a 10 min drive from both Portmagee and Cahersiveen, both charming places. Cahersiveen has a big supermarket and other shops. From Portmagee you can go across to Valentia Island.

    We had just a great time. The rooms are big, bright, clean and tidy. We had a huge modern bathroom too. Martin and Leonie are lovely people and great hosts. Highlights are the cute animals. We'll be definitely come back and recommend this accommodation to everyone who wants to be in a quiet and peaceful place and visit the Ring of Kerry. It's only short drive to Valencia Island. Martin and Leonie will give recommendations for what to see and visit. Thank you for having us in your house. Tanja, Meike and Denise

    Tina is amazing host. We mixed up our boat departure times and realized in the morning we have no time for breakfast. She gave us a quick cereal with fresh fruit and gave us stuff to pack few sandwiches to go. The room was spacious and lovely, the bed was so comfy and the views from the guesthouse are truly stunning. I would stay there again anytime.
