We had a great stay at Knockanaskill House. Jane and John were excellent hosts! They answered all our questions promptly and suggested some local favourites. The house guidebook was comprehensive; it included everything we needed to know on arrival, throughout our stay, and upon departure.
The house itself exceeded our expectations! Jane and John really thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. On arrival, the first thing we noticed was that the house was warm and welcoming with great attention to interior design. The entire home was spotless; 5 stars for cleanliness. We grocery shopped in town (Kenmare) and the kitchen had all of the tools we needed to prepare breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. There was plenty of space for our group of 5 adults and 2 small children. The sunroom was our favourite room in the house -- with a comfortable couch and a fantastic view of the bay, it was the place to unwind after taking in all the sights.
The location of Knockanaskill House was perfect for our stay. The pubs and shops in Kenmare are only a 10-minute drive --Kenmare Ice Cream (Henry St) was delish! We also drove the Ring of Kerry and visited Killarney National Park.
We will definitely stay here next time we're in Ireland.
