We had the most fabulous stay at John and Eileen's cottage. We got to stay for about a week and we really could have stayed forever. It's obvious that a lot of thought and care went into renovating the space. The entire space is gorgeous, both upstairs and downstairs. Everything is new and updated but without losing the charm and history of the space. Eileen met us not long after check in (she had already stocked the fridge with fresh bread, milk, and beer, and there's a cabinet that has some dry goods and spices). She was so warm, friendly, and lovely and exemplifies the best of Irish hospitality. We had a wonderful time chatting with her and she provided excellent restaurant recommendations. You also can't beat the location for exploring the town of Killarney and the surrounding area. It's an excellent base for visits to the Dingle Peninsula, Ring of Kerry, etc. It's also right across the street from the Killarney National Park and my husband and I spent so much time wandering in the park. (The view from the house is stunning as well). I was heartbroken to leave and we're already trying to go back next year. You won't regret your stay!
