Joan and Tom welcome you to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of life on our family run dairy and sheep farm. We are located on the Slea Head route at the foot of Mount Eagle and overlooking Ventry Bay. Our home is 10 minutes from Dingle town, famous for its wonderful restaurants and pubs with traditional music and 1 km from Ventry Blue Flag beach. Garvey's Farmhouse is recommended by Le Guide du Routard. It is a restored farmhouse cottage set on a private site with a beautiful view of Ventry Harbour. The house consists of three double bedrooms with the master bedroom en suite and so can accommodate a party of up to six people. It is an open plan house with a fully fitted kitchen with all the modern conveniences, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher and microwave. The house has oil central heating and there is an open fire in the sitting room. A glass conservatory on the front of the house affords you a relaxing area to enjoy the view of Ventry Harbour.
Garvey's Farmhouse is an ideal location for walking, Dingle Way Walk, hill climbing, cycling, visiting the many archaeological sites and the locations of famous movies such as "Far and Away" and "Ryan's Daughter". Visiting Fungi, the famous dolphin, that has made Dingle harbour it's home since 1983. Many other activities are available in the area for example spending a day exploring on the Great Blasket Island. For the rainy day a visit to the many cultural and Celtic museums and Oceanworld will easily pass the day. The locality is steeped in history and archaeological artefacts, located on the owners farm are inscribed pre-Christian stones. A beautiful cove which is just a 10 minute walk from the house can be enjoyed on your holiday.
Loved this farmhouse and the hostess! Joan was very hospitable and helpful with things to see and do nearby - including Star Wars Huts. We enjoyed our stay - watched the cow milking in the morning, the views and the baby calves!
