Super clean, very comfortable and spacious. Views from windows are amazing and the location feels remote but is only 15 minutes from Killarney and all it has to offer and 20 minutes from Tralee. Kerry is a beautiful county to explore and house was a perfect haven to rerun to after a day sight seeing
