Wow! What an incredibly relaxing, comfortable and beautiful place to stay while enjoying the sights of Killarney and Kerry. We were welcomed by our hosts who gave us a tour of the house and made sure we had everything we needed. The view from every room is incredible. They even had toys for our 10 month old (plus plenty of entertainment and games for older kids). They provided plenty of information on the surrounding areas and recommendations of things to do. Frank literally wrote the book on things to do in and around Killarney...it’s available for your use on the kitchen table...we perused it and it’s great! The house is just a five minute drive from the town and key sights in the National Park. We had dinner one night in town at Bricin at our hosts suggestion, which had a great menu and friendly staff who, of course, knew our hosts when we mentioned where we were staying. They have been welcoming guests to Gallan since at least the mid-eighties and it shows. Be prepared to wish you were booked for a longer stay! In fact, the only down side to our visit is that it was too short. On our next trip to Ireland we will spend more time in Killarney (at Gallan Elie, if they’ll have us) and bring friends to enjoy it with us!
Thanks again to Frank and Siubhan!!
