KY42 Killarney manor house

Killarney, County Kerry

8 +

8 in main house (accommodation for up to 14 in courtyard apartments)

Outside famous Killarney, this fine 18th century house stands in 40 acres of enchanting terraced woodland gardens, overlooking the River Laune and nestling beneath the Magillycuddy's Reeks mountain range. The property is beautifully furnished and decorated, and the superbly proportioned rooms are as elegant as they are comfortable. In the grounds, ancient bridges lead to grassy islands, prehistoric monuments shelter beneath a canopy of oak and beech trees. And, if you feel like wandering off the estate, there is a little village within 300 yards (across the field). It has a pub and restaurant and the parkland golf course is rapidly gaining an excellent reputation.
