Talk about off the beaten path! We approached this house from a different direction than the host expected, and we ended up driving along some tiny villages and back roads. But, it's Ireland so we were expecting that! In the morning we realized that the Killarney National Park is literally at the bottom of a short drive down the hill - it takes maybe 5 minutes to get to some of the most awesome scenery in Ireland!

Michael was kind enough to be very flexible with our arrival time and the cottage is small but fully stocked and comfortable. It's a little hard to find in the dark, so be sure to get there while there's still sunlight to read the small road signs. There is a hike nearby and a flock of sheep that wander around the roads, it's a great secluded location for relaxation and access to the Killarney park.

As long as you familiarize yourself with the ideas of electric showerheads, turning on/off the hot water and rural Irish living, you will have a great time!
