5 miles to Killarney and all it has to offer - walks, hikes, tours, sight-seeing etc. Relaxing quiet area, yet within distance of night clubs, restaurants, golf courses, hiking trails, scenic tours the Lakes of Killarney and much, much more.
Our favorite stay on a two week long trip. Denis and Irene are lovely people and welcomed my family with the utmost hospitality. I recommend their spacious home to anyone who is looking to stay close to downtown Killarney.
The house was beautifully kept and hosting was lovely. Fresh scones and butter in the kitchen upon arrival. Hosts do live on premises but house is very well divided for privacy.
This home suited us fine, since we didn't want to stay in Killarney town, and yet wanted to be in the area for outdoors activities. This is one of the cleanest places we have ever stayed in! I was a bit uncertain about it since there were no outdoor pictures in the listing, but the home is very nice inside and outside. The hosts have divided their home into the rental and their home, which isn't clear from the listing. It didn't bother us, but this was not expected. We enjoyed speaking to the host, who was interesting and very hospitable. We found the beds to be small and mattresses felt old, but that was our only complaint with the comfort of the stay.
We stayed here for one night after a tour of the Ring of Kerry and before a drive to Galway. I wish we had planned to stay another night, not only because Killarney was so wonderful, but because Irene and Denis's place was as well. Irene met us when we checked in. Their home is charming, comfortable and they left us delicious scones and a fridge stocked with breakfast essentials. This was well appreciated. There are some things on the listing that were not quite accurate that should be mentioned. The listing states one bathroom. Two of the bedrooms had en suite baths and the other bedrooms had sinks in them and had shared access to a full bathroom. This was a pleasant surprise for our family. Also, the map on the listing indicates that the home is closer to the town of Killarney than it actually is. Based on the listing map, we thought we might be able to walk into town, but the home is much further out. But there were plenty of taxis available and the country location was ideal for a peaceful night. I highly recommend staying in Irene and Denis's home.
This property was absolutely incredible!! Perfectly suited our family of 5 with tons of extra room. It was spacious and clean and comfortable! The hosts Denis and Irene were amazing and kind and helpful! A highlight of our 25th wedding anniversary trip! We are so thankful to have found this location which was so lovely!
This house was so beautiful and in a lovely, quiet setting 10 minutes from the town center. Denis was a welcoming host and even left delicious scones for our family to enjoy when we arrived. We wish this was our forever home!
I WILL be back. I will recommend this property to anyone that will listen. The house was spotless, so comfortable, and the hosts were truly amazing. Upon arrival, we were personally greeted by the hosts. We entered to find a homemade apple pie and fine bottle of French wine. The hosts shared all of their knowledge of Killarney as well as the entire country. The house was very roomy and also extremely well-appointed. This was, without question, the BEST value I have EVER EXPERIENCED in renting a property. There was also a full library and a selection of games, Thank you Denis and Irene!!!
Incredible experience! We've done a lot of VRBO rentals and Denis and Irene were some of the best hosts we've ever had.
Why were they so awesome?
Because they simply cared about us. From the moment we arrived we received a warm welcome, pie cooled for our family, which the kids loved. They just cared about us and we're interested in our well being
