Pink Gate Cottage is located in a stunning part of the island connected to the main land with a road bridge and in the summer also with a ferry. The cottage offers fantastic views of the Atlantic Ocean, the 'Blasket Islands' and ‘Dingle Bay'. The proximity to the Gulf Stream gives it a subtropical climate creating a special fauna and flora making it the ideal location for walking in a very special and unique environment. St. Brendan's Well, a natural spring with reputed healing powers, is only a short walk from the cottage. Portmagee, a small fishing village is 2kms from 'pink gate cottage' and offers a variety of activities - angling, water sports, and boat excursions to the 'Skellig Rock' as well as some very good fish restaurants. Knightstown on the eastern end of the island with a ferry connection to the main land is a picturesque small village with cafes, bars, restaurants and shops offering local crafts and art. Valentia Island is the perfect location for a very special holiday
