This place is within walking distance to the center of Killarney and all it has to offer. The road up to the house is a pleasant adventure with winding passages, stone bridges and gorgeous views. The house itself is very comfortable.
I would recommend doing the jaunting cars, well worth the €40 for our small group. It included a one hour tour through Killarney National park with a stop at Ross Castle. The views were breathtaking. If you have a car take in Torc Waterfall, which is a quick 5min hike off Muckross Rd. You can hear the water once you get out of the car.
We had a delicious meal at The Laurel and enjoyed all of the live music in the pubs nearby. Can't wait to return again in the future.
