What an absolutely perfect place to lay our heads for a few days while trekking around Killarney and surrounding areas. The location is just a stone’s throw from Dingle, Inch Beach, and Killarney National Park. The grounds include two quaint cottages and trails of gardens and new growth forests that the family has been planting since the 80s. It’s absolutely stunning! We even came across a young buck on one of our morning walks. Helen, Peter’s mom, was wonderful. We saw her in the garden and chatted for a bit about the property and she walked us through some trails, showing us some native orchids that were growing and some beautiful fruit trees. Now to the cottage. I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect little cottage. It was very clean and tidy with all the creature comforts of modern living without sacrificing the character of an old rural farm cottage. The kitchen is well equipped if you feel like cooking your own meals and there’s a beautiful wood table in the center of the room. The bathroom is newly renovated and spacious. The shower is fabulous and the water runs hot for a long time! They even thought to put a little wall heater in the bathroom so you aren’t freezing when you step out the shower on a chilly Irish morning. The bed in the bedroom is comfy and the room is dark, perfect for catching up on some sleep after a long day of hiking. Now for the best part: the living room has a wood burning stove and plenty of firewood for a nice evening by the fire. We downloaded some spooky stories and spent our nights sitting by the fire, Guinness in hand, stories in the background, and a crackling fire warming our tired feet. It was lovely! I’d highly recommend! Peter was extremely responsive to any questions we had and requests we made. My only regret was not planning a longer stay.
