Rebecca and her family are making a beautiful conversion of an old cottage in a quiet part of the Kerry countryside. Even though it doesn't take long to get to the town it feels nice and secluded. Because it's so quiet we had a really good sleep. The bedroom and bathroom were hotel quality - beautiful comfortable rooms and a fantastic shower. (Probably the best sleep and shower we had on our travels around the country.)
When we arrived Rebecca gave us tea with shortbread and we spent a nice time talking to her and her partner and hanging out with their two lovely dogs. Rebecca and her partner had lots of good tips for things to see in surrounding Kerry, which is one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland. This is a perfect, relaxing base for exploring Killarney, the national park and beyond. Rebecca also offers breakfast for a little bit extra; we already had breakfast plans that morning so we opted not to, but we'll try it next time. Hopefully we'll have a chance to stay again. If you don't mind going a little bit off the beaten track, we can't recommend Rebecca's place highly enough - enjoy!
