We had an amazing time staying at the lovely space Riona and Paddy have created in Whitehall Co. Kerry. After arriving safely on a very wet and wild weekend, we were greeted warmly by Paddy who gave us a great tour of the place, and some fantastic advice on things to do. We started by having a little snooze in front of a lovely fire, before we got in the car and headed to the beach at Rossbeigh, where we were battered by the wind and loved watching the waves roll in. We adored the drive around Lake Carragh and Licken Wood, and the Gap of Dunloe was a visceral experience; a real sensory feast and a truly unique and awe inspiring scene. Our visit was finished off perfectly by our drive through the deserted Black Valley and the more populace Killarney National Park. We especially loved our visit from Queen Beatrice the cat the night before we left, who came begging as Paddy predicted. She was very friendly and funny, which was in keeping with our lovely stay. Riona was in great form before our stay, giving us lots of advice and directions, and made us feel at home before we even got there. In short, a great place, great people and a great stay. Enjoy.
