We had a fantastic stay at Dunkerron woods. It’s just a short easy drive from Kenmare and set in a beautiful estate close to the coast of the bay.
We had more than enough room for our family of 5 - the house is very spacious. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The grounds are well kept and the estate felt safe for our kids to play freely.
Caroline’s tips on nearby activities and places to visit were hugely helpful. Templenoe pier, just down the road, was a great spot for pier jumping at high tide and we also took a kayaking tour from there - the kids loved it!
Star Outdoors across the bay offers tons of activities for all ages and there are endless spots for hiking in the area. Gleninchaquin trails were one of the highlights of our visit to the area - stunning views along the trail!
Further out from the house along the peninsula are some of the most beautiful beaches we’ve ever been to- Derrynane beach cannot be missed.
So many things to see and do in such a stunning part of the country and Dunkerron Woods was the perfect base for us. We truly hope we can return again.
