Meet your host…

Lovett Family

The Lovett Family have been farming the land for generations and welcoming guests for over 40 years. The old stone farm cottage still exists. Cattle mainly Hereford @ Charolais and sheep namely Suffolk @ Scotch are reared on the farm. There is always lots of work to be done on the farm with the vegetables being sown in spring and silage cutting during the summer months. Many of our guests take a stroll before or after breakfast to the farm, enjoying the panoramic views on the way.

It was beautiful! Sheila was hospitable and welcoming and the rooms were comfortable. We could see sheep lounging under apple trees from our window, which was lovely. Breakfast was cooked to order and it was great just walking around and observing the animals. Quiet and picturesque, but close to town! Would highly recommend.

The structure needs major renovations: rooms furnished with old furniture and dated toilets. Not bad the Irish breakfast while yogurt, fruit juices and other were of cheap brands. I would not recommend it!

One of our favorite stays in Ireland. True Irish hospitality, very knowledgeable about local sights, travel suggestions, and the best chocolate in Kenmare ! It was great fun meeting farm people, even the grandkids interacted with us.. Breakfasts were great, cooked to our requests.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at White Heather Farm. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was wonderful. We enjoyed seeing the farm animals and walking around the farm. The listing said you could gather the eggs, but unfortunately, there are only a couple of hens there since a wicked fox raided the hen house so you may want to edit the listing. We would definitely recommend staying there if you are in the area!
