About this property

Luxury & Comfort By Lakes Of Killarney - ideal for large families or groups

Our beautiful architecturally built house is within walking distance to the National Park and 5 minutes drive from Killarney town centre. The house has been finished to a very high standard. It is spacious, bright and warm and, despite being a large house, retains a cosy atmosphere. Although it is new and quite modern, the house has a country classic look which makes it very comfortable. There is underfloor heating throughout giving a constant temperature all year round. The large windows make the whole house very bright and allow guests to enjoy the wonderful garden and it’s private setting even from indoors.

The 5 bedrooms each have a unique style and feel and the living spaces are spacious and have many areas for guests to enjoy.

On offer to our guests are:

Living:

Entrance Hall- spacious and welcoming with it's beautiful curved staircase and gallery,

Kitchen/Dining Room - open plan, with everything for the amateur chef including a 7 ring gas stove with three ovens and a large handmade dining table made from reclaimed wood, easily seating 8-10 people and looking out across the entire back garden.

Living Room - open to kitchen, this is a large, high ceilinged room, with an L-shaped leather couch, Smart TV and a beautiful gas stove to cosy up the evenings. Our 6ft Pool table makes for a fun game for all ages.

A large, well established garden surrounds the house with many beautiful birch and willow trees. There is a ‘fairy ring’ and a fire pit good for a bonfire as well as a barbeque on the Patio. The established trees and many and varied plants bring much colour to the garden throughout the year.

For your convenience, the final clean as well as all utilities are covered in the rates.

You can even order your groceries in advance, to be delivered on your arrival date from our local Tesco supermarket.

Though quiet and rural, in an area of Ireland famed for the beauty of its mountains and lakes, the house is also close to all the amenities of the bustling town of Killarney.

The ideal retreat for families, golfers, hikers and bikers, cyclists, adventurers, fishermen, artists and of course anyone interested in history, culture and music and general good Irish craic!

We look forward to welcoming you to the Kingdom of Kerry soon!

Visit Killarney in style
This is my second time staying in this gorgeous home. Both times we were a party of 8 and the house was more than adequate to comfortably accommodate us all. The location was great for all the day trips we did. Hope to return again and have recommended it to friends for next summer. It was perfect for our weeks stay in the Killarney area.

Beautiful property and great hosts!
The house is stunning and very comfortable. The hosts were great. Fiona was so helpful, gave me plenty advice on the area and sorted one issue we had very professionally and quickly. This house is perfect for a family or group. You won't regret booking it.

Wonderful Holiday in Killarney
Our group comprised of 4, related, families with age group ranging from mid 70's to 5 years old. We could not have chosen a better place to stay than Scartlea House ensuring everyone, within such a diverse age group, would have a 'fantastic' holiday. The house was in quite excellent condition, as promised on the website, very comfortable beds, good sized bathrooms, lots of fluffy towels, piped music throughout the house and a great 'cinema' room. A great DVD collection enabled me to, once more, laugh outrageously at Fawlty Towers! There is a, beautiful garden that allowed the 'kids' room to, safely, run about or play on the swings and seesaw, a patio that encouraged lazy evenings with a glass of wine, a barbecue for outdoor eating, a fire pit for toasting marshmallows(we managed to do this twice) and plenty of areas for some quiet time on your own. With a group of ten I wondered how we would cope in the kitchen when making and eating meals but with such a large range with four ovens, a small breakfast bar and 'farmhouse' size dining table it was no problem. Our week in Killarney coincided with some of the best weather that the area had enjoyed in many years. Our group comprised of people who had lived and travelled to many parts of the world but without exception all thought that Killarney was one of the most beautiful parts of the world they had ever visited. The scenery is breathtaking, the people, very friendly and helpful, some excellent restaurants/pubs with a great choice of food. If you enjoy seafood you are going to be spoiled! Go on a boat trip on one of the lakes as it is an ideal way to enjoy the glorious views. Take a walk through the grounds of Muckross House and you will find a little cove with a wonderful beach with safe wading and/or swimming for the kids. We were there for only one week but a month would have been too short to see and enjoy this wonderful part of the world.

About the host

Hosted by Fiona and Rodney Stewart

Host profile image
We are a young family of four - we built this house as our family home and have spared no expense on it, also investing lots of time, effort and love in making it the perfect house. We hope you will love it as we do.

Why they chose this property

Although not locals (Fiona from Cork and Rod from Australia) we have always had a special place in our heart for beautiful Killarney and even chose to get married here - we settled here in 2009 when we were lucky enough to buy this amazing spot and build our dream house on it - we love being so close to spectacular nature but also the proximity to so many activities, restaurants, bars and shops, not to mention the amazing Golf Courses.
This town is wonderful for any age group and for almost every interest and our home is close enough to make the most of everything while still being in a rural setting so we have the best of both worlds.

What makes this property unique

Architecturally designed, the house has - Large open plan rooms with high ceilings, underfloor heating throughout, beautiful big windows overlooking the established private garden.
We have put in the highest standard of appliances and interiors and although practical, the house has an elegant and luxurious atmosphere and somehow also has a cosy and traditional feel to it.
We especially love the trees and the garden as well as our curved stairway and gallery and our opulent evening Sitting Room with it's cinema screen. The children have plenty of space to run around and can play safely in the garden.
Enjoy!
