County Kerry is known throughout Ireland as "The Kingdom", originating from a legend that it was the Kingdom of Ciar, one of Ireland's ancient Clans.
Base yourself at Sunnyhill, just a few minutes walk from the heart of the beautiful picturesque town of Kenmare. This is the perfect location to enjoy a week exploring all the beauty that the south west of Ireland has to offer.
Apart from enjoying the warmth of Kenmare, visit the town of Killarney and marvel at the lake lands and mountains of the Killarney National Park that surround it. Enjoy the quaint comfort of a horse drawn, jaunting car to explore the gap of Dunloe or visit the historic Muckross House.
Kenmare is located on the "Ring of Kerry", Ireland's most famous touring route that has attracted visitors from far and near for hundreds of years. The route has some of the finest beaches in all of Europe and the area provides an amazing insight into the ancient heritage of Ireland with Ogham Stones, Old Monasteries, Iron Age Forts and a landscape shaped by the last Ice Age almost 10,000 years ago.
Your base in Kenmare also provides the opportunity to visit the beautiful unspoilt landscape of West Cork, exploring some of Ireland's most beautiful and less discovered scenery, tucked away in quiet corners like Baltimore, Glengarriff, Glandore, and Skibbereen. Tour the Ring of Beara, a coastal peninsula that could be described as Ireland in miniature.
Kenmare is about 1 hour 30 minutes from Cork Airport or 2 hours 15 minutes from Shannon Airport
