If we've made it sound like a museum, that couldn't be further from the truth. It's refreshingly easy to feel at home here, whether that's playing board games next to one of the open fires or relaxing in the garden. When the weather forecast makes for happy reading, there are sixty-eight acres of private parkland on the estate with some beautiful views to be had. When you're in the mood to see a little more of the local area you can visit a local dairy farm who make delicious ice cream or enjoy a wealth of natural attractions and historic buildings in Killarney National Park which starts only five minutes' drive from the home.

About Ireland

The population of the Republic of Ireland sits close to five million, yet in 2019, it welcomed over nine-and-a-half million tourists. Why could that be?
