About this property
A comfortable and spacious first floor apartment, conveniently located on the edge of the popular tourist town of Kenmare, in County Kerry. This Kenmare apartment has been lovingly furnished and benefits from an open plan living area and a delightful balcony, with countryside and bay views. Kenmare town centre is easily reached on foot and offers mouth watering restaurants and an enticing selection of pubs and inns, many with lively music and traditional entertainment. For days out and exciting activities you will be spoilt for choice; the popular Seafari wildlife tours depart nearby, and water sports such as diving and sailing are readily available. Killarney, famous for its majestic lakes and stunning National Park can be reached by taking one of Ireland's most scenic drives, and the unspoilt Beara Peninsula is less than a mile away. A perfect base for a memorable holiday!
A picturesque town situated on the stunning Bay of Kenmare, overlooking the gleaming Atlantic Ocean. Beautiful beaches, wildlife and lovely scenery abound here. The coastline is rugged with sandy beaches close by, while pebble beaches surround the bay itself. Kenmare is an interesting town, full of character and colour, with long winding streets setting the scene for farmers' markets, artists' galleries, lovely little boutiques and some of the best restaurants in Ireland! The town is also situated on the Ring of Kerry and Wild Atlantic Way. The famous town of Killarney has an abundance of attractions, pubs, festivals and its National Park is about 35 minutes’ drive away, and though there is much to see and do here, the pace of life is still leisurely and unhurried. With the Beara and Dingle Peninsulas nearby and the Ring of Kerry and Wild Atlantic Way to explore, makes this an ideal base for exploring Kerry to Cork. This great location is not to be missed!

The road that runs past the property was busier than expected. The lack of WiFi at the property caused us a few issues. The flat was comfortable clean and well equipped. Leaving us with a bottle of wine, milk and pack of biscuits was much appreciated.
