"Lovely property with continental breakfast. Andy and his family made us very welcome. Our Classic Family room was perfect and spacious.
Andy communicated promptly and gave clear instructions on where to locate our key and room.
Quiet location just a few minutes’ drive from the quay in Portmagee. Would totally recommend Seagull Cottage."

A hearty breakfast was individually prepared and was a delicious way to start the day! Close drive to restaurants in Waterville."
"Honestly, everyone coming to Ireland should stay here. It’s a beautiful property tucked away on Valentia island, and really close to Portmagee if you’re heading to the Skelligs. The restaurant is great, and the staff are so nice. It was the highlight of our trip."
