Andy’s place Seagull Cottage in Portmagee was modern, clean, and cute. Check in and out was easy and Andy was very helpful. Continental breakfast was simple but good. Nearby Kerry Cliffs was awesome and so was the landing boat tour on Skellig Michael! We would definitely stay again.

BEAUTIFUL Gateway to the Skelligs!

What an absolute STUNNING location! Check in was simple, rooms were clean, large and modern. Side note: location is an escape from the world, a such, there are no TV’s in the rooms. Come here to unplug, decompress ands ENJOY the serenity of Portmagee! A short, 1-mile walk down the street takes you directly to awesome pubs and the docks! The owner Andy was kind and helpful. I HIGHLY recommend Seagull Cottage!

Well-placed at the western end of the Ring of Kerry and Skellig Ring to visit Portmagee, Valentia Island and the Kerry Cliffs. Modern, clean and bright. Access to tea-making facilities in the dining room. Good continental breakfast with home-made items, though not included in basic price - have to add it in. Very quiet and rural.

We stayed in Portmagee for our booked tour to Skellig Michael (which was fabulous!). Andy welcomed us to Sea Gull cottage and made us feel right at home. Plenty of parking available. There are three local restaurants available in Portmagee and we ate at The Moorings both nights (make reservations as is very popular) and had tea at the Skellig Restaurant, both of which were great. Unfortunately, the sounds from the room above us, our first night at the cottage, were quite loud, but with earplugs, ok. The continental breakfast each morning was great with several choices, most amazing was Andy's homemade granola. We very much enjoyed our visit. Andy was a great host, welcoming and knowledgeable. The room we stayed in, could use some shelves in the bathroom for leaving toiletry bags etc... but otherwise, it was a really lovely room.
