Within Walking Distance

Darby O'Gill's Country House Hotel is situated right in the heart of Kerry, just five minutes from the beautiful town of Killarney - the tourism capital of Ireland. The secure and ample parking, the garden area and the close proximity to outdoor activities - like golf, walking, cycling, fishing and equestrian - are just a few great reasons why Darby O'Gills is fortunate to be out of the town centre.
