Killarney National Park Residence

Wonderful home in a great location. We really enjoyed our stay here.

"Perfect vacation"

Absolutely perfect choice for our stay in Killarney. From the minute we met Bernadette and Tim, we felt right at home, and our every expectation was met. The property is walking distance to town, but far enough from the hustle and bustle. The location was a great base for touring, and we will most definitely stay here again...we loved everything about it! Thank you, Bernadette and Tim, for sharing your piece of paradise with our family

"Spectacular"

I honestly looked over hundreds upon hundreds of properties and this was hands the down winner for beauty. It also had in its favour location, location, location. Strange I should mention this after beauty but trust me the property will blow you away. I sense Tim and Bernadette have done well for themselves judging by The property and their Killarney Brewery just up the road. Great beer, pizza and service. Yet both seem to be salt of the earth people. Not intrusive yet kind and helpful any time we needed them. The first day he brought over delicious waffles. My family ate them before I returned from the Shannon airport with my son’s girlfriend. Bernadette made delicious scones that were delivered warm by Tim. Those I made sure to have. One of the most important things I could pass on to a reader is that because of the thick stone walls we felt we could musically celebrate indoors at night and not intrude on other guest’s peace and tranquility. Only one night we celebrated an 18th birthday by being out on the courtyard table and we had a window open to hear the music. We did this for less than an hour out of respect for the cottages in the back. Truth is with the window open the music volume was up but the sound was still tolerably low. This is an important fact whether you’re renting The House or a cottage. Should give comfort either way. I could go on and on but I’ll leave with two final observations. One, it’s hard to believe what a quiet oasis the property is from the hustle and bustle of Killarney. And you’re RIGHT THERE! Two, the courtyards and flowers themselves were worth the price of renting. Shocked that Tim and Bernadette take care of it all themselves. We’ll be back. Peak experience.

"10 Star stay"

If we could, we would give Tim O'Donoghue and his estate house ten stars in every category! Our group of 10 stayed for 5 nights this summer. Tim was an amazing host who helped us in every way including booking local events/tours- even booking a local musician who came to The house one evening. The house itself is beautifully restored with a spectacular kitchen, a living room where we lit peat fires and played games, and a large family room. There was plenty of room for all with the 5 bedrooms and 4 baths. In addition, the proximity to Killarney National Park and the center of town made this the perfect location. If you are looking for an exceptional experience on your visit to Killarney, stay here

We loved our stay!

Their home was lovely, and perfect for our family. We already miss the sparkling spring tap and their adorable dog, Teddy. Great location to town. Owners are so sweet and helpful. Loved staying in Killarney
