It's lovingly furnished, super clean, has very comfortable beds, and has everything you need. From here, you can easily explore the Ring of Kerry, but without a car, you won't be able to do much. For your information, it's about 15 minutes to Killorglin for shopping, and about 20 minutes to Killarney. We'd love to come back!

This is the best holiday home ever that we have stayed in. Spotless, spacious, comfortable & well situated for sightseeing. We had a fantastic week weather wise too - the sun shone every day and it was warmer than home - mostly between 18 & 22deg daily. My mum in law was delighted to see thrushes in the garden - she hadnât seen a thrush for a long time. The Kissane Foodstore was located 1/2 mile away from the house - we always used this on our map app to get us back to the house - and their home made scones are absolutely delicious. Would thoroughly recommend this holiday home - you wonât be disappointed. Thank you
