Wow, the view. I mean seriously, the views from this house are stunning. You can step outside and look up from the foot of a mountain to the summit, then be walking up that same mountain 15 minutes later. If you enjoy hiking then this is the house for you; on the bookshelf is a guide outlining a set of 4-12 hour treks up, down and across the mountain range. Not to mention easy access to the rest of Killarney National Park and the sights all over Kerry.

The house itself is roomy and very clean. I did not see any bugs or anything of that nature. Cows will moo at 6AM, but that's part of the charm. Comfortable beds. Kathleen was helpful on arrival and stopped by the next day to make sure we were doing OK. Surprisingly for such a rural area I was able to get the Internet on my phone most of the time, though I wouldn't count on it in a pinch.

Overall just a great experience.
