Marie your host is an archaeologist and tour guide, whose family have owned and lived in the property since 1912. Herlihy stands in the centre of Farranfore village, which is 15 km from Killarney. In 2017 Marie reimagined a portion of her family home into quirky, unique accommodation in this traditional Kerry village. It is an ideal base for exploring Kerry, as it is adjacent to the Wild Atlantic Way and 1.5 km from Kerry Airport. Herlihy’s is an ideal base for day trips to Killarney, the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle and Beara Peninsulas and beyond. The accommodation is spotlessly clean furnished to a very high standard, with a beautiful garden, free car park and free Wi-Fi throughout
There is a supermarket directly across the road, a Kebab House (50m), Bar and Restaurant (300m) and Coffee Shop (400m) in the village. For those not having a access to a car there is a railway station and excellent bus service also in the village.
Marie continues to live in the building and is happy to engage with guests and offer advice on what to see and do in the Kerry. She has a family of four cats, who can be guaranteed to socialise with her guests should the opportunity arise. Marie's services as a professional accredited tour guide can also be pre-booked for an additional fee.
