What guests think
Travellers describe White Heather Farmhouse as a peaceful farm stay near Kenmare, with welcoming hosts (especially Sheila), hearty made-to-order breakfasts, and countryside views with farm animals, making it a relaxed base for exploring the Ring of Kerry.
Many highlight Sheila's warmth, helpfulness, and practical local tips. Rooms are comfortable and quiet, though several note dated decor; there is one report of cleanliness issues. Payment is cash only, and one reviewer advises using the exact Eircode for navigation. Expect a homely farmhouse stay with standout hosting.

This was one of our stops as we toured the wild Atlantic Way. The hosts were very communicative, and accommodating around our arrival time. Fantastic experience to stay on a local farm who served a traditional Irish breakfast. While we are not a fan of white and black pudding, we loved the experience. The views were stunning, and we loved the resident cows.

We tried to stay at all different bnb's on our trip ...this was our farmhouse one. It's a nice place.very clean ... wonderful owner very nice lady. It's not your usual bnb ...more like your own room and bathroom in your aunt's house ... living room to match. Very authentic and enjoyable. Very near ring of Kerry and a short drive from town.

This was one of the top highlights of my trip to Ireland. The farm is lovely (enjoy petting the cows and baby lambs!) and the owner/hostess (Sheila) is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She also makes an excellent Irish breakfast. Seriously, don’t miss this place.

White Heather Farmhouse is a few minutes drive from Kenmare - in the country but convenient to everything. There is farmland all around, so it’s peaceful and quiet - we had a heifer outside our window! The hostess, Sheila, was so knowledgeable about the area - she had lots of great recommendations of where to visit. And the breakfast was great as well - the perfect way to start the day! Highly recommended!

We broke a cardinal sin of B&Bs, arrived later than expected, at 7:30 pm due to many factors... however, we were greeted with several pronouncements, we were late(yes we were), we interrupted her dinner, she didn't think we were coming, she missed Mass because of us ( it was Saturday), she doesn't take credit cards (told us several times "it was in the contract", and since we booked last year the rate went up and it's 10 more euros per night. Well hello to you too. Rooms were adequate, the sheep on the farm were very entertaining, and breakfast was wonderful. She was super friendly the rest of our stay, but beware CASH ONLY

We broke a cardinal sin of B&Bs, arrived later than expected, at 7:30 pm due to many factors... however, we were greeted with several pronouncements, we were late(yes we were), we interrupted her dinner, she didn't think we were coming, she missed Mass because of us ( it was Saturday), she doesn't take credit cards (told us several times "it was in the contract", and since we booked last year the rate went up and it's 10 more euros per night. Well hello to you too. Rooms were adequate, the sheep on the farm were very entertaining, and breakfast was wonderful. She was super friendly the rest of our stay, but beware CASH ONLY

This was one of the top highlights of my trip to Ireland. The farm is lovely (enjoy petting the cows and baby lambs!) and the owner/hostess (Sheila) is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She also makes an excellent Irish breakfast. Seriously, don’t miss this place.

Si soggiorna in una vera farm irlandese. Camere un po' datate, ma comode e silenziose. Sheyla, la host, è stata gentilissima e premurosa e prepara la colazione per gli ospiti al momento. Ottimo punto di appoggio per visitare Kenmare, Glengarriff e tutta la penisola del Beara.

We had a great stay at the White Heather Farmhouse. The room was fine with a comfortable bed. Best of all, Sheila was a wonderful host and she provided us was a solid breakfast in the morning. Highly recommended!

Sheila was very helpful and made a fantastic breakfast in the morning. They have a lovely farm you can walk around. Any information you would need they would be more than helpful to provide you.

White Heather Farmhouse is a few minutes drive from Kenmare - in the country but convenient to everything. There is farmland all around, so it’s peaceful and quiet - we had a heifer outside our window! The hostess, Sheila, was so knowledgeable about the area - she had lots of great recommendations of where to visit. And the breakfast was great as well - the perfect way to start the day! Highly recommended!
