"Great Golf Accommodations" We had 12 Golfers staying at Westcove House (including the Stables & Garden Cottage) for 5 nights as we golfed various courses around Kerry. It was an eclectic and spacious location with plenty of room to spread out. We took advantage of the catering and were very glad we did. We had hot breakfasts every morning and a warm, home cooked meal waiting for us each night we returned home. The meals were delicious and the price was very reasonable. We will never forget coming home out of the cold, rain and sleet to a hot, delicious, homemade Irish stew!
Having a home base like Westcove House made our golf trip very relaxing and very cost effective. There is plenty of space to either gather and enjoy stories of the day or retreat and drown your sorrows privately.
Location is good, we made it as far as Old Head and back in a day. We also played Waterville, Hogs Head (both very close), Tralee and Adare Manor. There are a number of other options in the area.
Susannah, the owner, was great to work with and very attentive. Katherine and Bernie made our stay wonderful and were great cooks. They were always on time in the mornings and very accommodating around our arrival times for evening meals. I highly recommend taking advantage of their catering services. They were also a wealth of local knowledge and information which made our stay even more memorable.
We will definitely stay here again the next time we are golfing in south west Ireland!

"The most perfect wedding we could have asked for..." We had our wedding in Westcove House a the end of June 2019. We found it over 2 years ago and fell in love with the place immediately and knew it was perfect for our wedding. To say that it didn't disappoint is a massive understatement, we are both still pinching ourselves at the wedding we had.
Our families came done for the whole week and some said they felt they had arrived on the set of a movie they were so blown away by the house and its setting. The house, stables and cottages fitted everyone perfectly and the accommodation was lovely.
Katherine was so helpful and supportive throughout the process of planing our day and the team she works with were so professional on the day itself. It was an intimate family wedding in front of the main house with dinner and party after in the converted stables. We were able to decorate the room ourselves which made it very personal, in fact the flexibility we were allowed while designing the whole day made everything feel very personal.
Not only is Westcove House in an amazing location for a wedding it is also really accessible to large chunks of Co. Kerry. We ran out of time to see everything but have already booked our return visit for summer 2020.
Thank you for everything Westcove House....see you next year!!
