The perfect place to stay if you want to escape into nature. Especially for fans of the Lord of the Rings.
Plenty of beautiful walks both in Skyhil itself and the Glengarriff nature reserve.
I personally recommend the hike to Barley lake, a beautiful place where we didn't even meet any other tourists. When we got back, we sat by the fire and rested in the magical land of Skyhil.
Tony is a wonderful host and his book is the perfect read for the morning coffee.
