We absolutely loved our stay at the Kennedy Cottage. It was the perfect way to experience Killarney and the Black Valley! It is rustic but so charming. Think of it more as a “glamping” experience. Our family of 5 fit nicely in this quaint cottage. We enjoyed morning walks around the property and playing games or reading by the fire in the evenings. We also could not have asked for a better location being near the Gap of Dunloe and the lakes. The drive into the valley is not any worse then other roads in rural parts of Ireland so don’t let that deter you. Days we left the valley, we left early in the mornings and came home around 9 which worked out perfectly to avoid all the tourist traffic (buses) during the day. It was the perfect way to start our tour of Ireland. Communication with Scott was great and he was always quick to respond to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again if given the chance!
