{BE SURE TO CHECK OUT SCORES OF PHOTOS OF OUR HOME AND THE SURROUNDING AREA. A link to the album is located just below the calendar in the middle of this page.}
OUR RENOVATED STONE FARMHOUSE, near the Ring of Kerry, offers breathtaking views and a quiet, private spot close to beaches, golf and mountains. A short hike up the hill behind our home is rewarded with a panorama you'll never forget -- the westernmost land in Europe, the Skellig Islands; Ballinskelligs Bay, with the shimmering colors and lights of Waterville at its throat, and MacGillicuddy's Reeks, with Ireland's tallest peak.
ENJOY restaurants and pubs with traditional entertainment in Cahersiveen, Portmagee, Valentia, Waterville and Ballinskelligs; the world-class Waterville Golf Links, blue flag beaches, magnificent walks, fresh and saltwater fishing, horseback riding, surfing, diving and wind surfing.
ALSO CLOSE BY are pre-Christian sites; boat trips to the monastic settlement on Skellig Michael; Derrynane House, the ancestral home of Daniel O'Connell, Ireland's "Liberator;" and the Cill Rialaig pre-famine village and artist colony.
