Ballinskelligs (Baile na Sceilge) - 'Homestead of the Rocks'









Ballinskelligs (Baile na Sceilge), meaning "homestead of the rocks" is a village in the south-west of the Iveragh peninsula in the Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking) region of County Kerry, Ireland. The rocks in question are Skellig Michael (Sceilg Mhichíl) and Little Skellig, an ancient monastic colony which lies off the coast from Ballinskellings. The town is also the site of an attractive beach and ruins of a priory of Augustinian Canons Regular, now in ruins, and the remains of a Mac Carthy castle.

This extremely spacious self catering property with stunning views, located on its own ¼ acre site on the outskirts of Ballinskelligs just minutes from a beautiful blue flag beach. This property is the perfect base from which to tour the 'Kingdom of Kerry' , situated on the 'Ring of Kerry' in Ballinskelligs Bay, approx. 13km from Waterville, 82km from Tralee and 78km from Killarney. Wild rugged coastlines, scattered islands, vast mountains and high passes, this Gaeltacht (Gaelic speaking) region will leave you longing to come back for more. Nearby towns of Waterville, Caherciveen and Portmagee also offer a number of excellent restaurants, pubs and shops.
