Katherine was a very friendly host, and her house was decorated very stylishly. There were many different rooms which all had a warm character, and the house contained more books than one could read in a lifetime. We were especially happy with the kitchen and the two fire places. The surroundings of the house were also very beautiful; although we didn't have a car, we amused ourselves for three days by walking through the area and cycling with the bicycles that were available for us to use. It is an hour-long walk into the centre of Kenmare (about 20 minutes by bike), which is a picturesque village with some nice shops and coffee places. All three of us agreed that this had to be one of the prettiest bnb's we ever stayed at, and we wished we could have stayed longer!
