Beautiful setting near the National Park. A great place for families with small children as it has play equipment, friendly animals and lots of space to run. Close to the scenic lakes, Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula. Would love to have had more time to spend here to go riding and explore the nearby park. Run by a very quiet, reserved family but service was very good.

The best feature of this bnb is its surrounding, as it is located nearby /or is it within?/ the Killarney National Park. There is a stable on the premises and the hosts run a small pet farm. We witnessed a dog being trained to chase and guide a herd of sheep: what a great sight! There is also a nice playground for children.
