South Kerry where Killorglin is situated is recognized as having the most fetching of Irish scenery. Into this area come Tourists in their thousands each year, in search of mental and physical refreshment, with few traffic jams, friendly people, rivers, lakeland and nearby coastal beauty, and Ireland's highest mountain range, and interesting places to explore, both by foot, and automobile.
 

The Kerry landscape owes its rugged beauty to 460 million years of geological activity. But scenery is by no means Kerry's only attraction; there are many excellent angling rivers, lakes and sea, climbing to suit all levels of experience including Ireland's highest mountain and long stretches of golden sandy beaches. The bungalow makes an ideal base for touring the Ring of Kerry, Iveragh Peninsula and Ring of Beara.

We have more than 20 golf courses in Kerry to choose from, including the World famous championship courses of Ballybunion, Killarney, Tralee and Waterville. Killorglin boasts its own scenic 18-hole course and Dooks one of the oldest links courses in Ireland established in 1889 with spectacular views over Dingle Bay is just 6 miles away as is the relatively new parklands course of Beaufort.

Your Host is a "Failte Ireland" Approved Tour Guide.
