This house is situated directly opposite the Sheen River and the falls and offers really lovely views to the front. Please note that the property is not secured with gates or fences so young children would require supervision. 

PETS

Similarly, while we are happy to accept a well behaved dog, it must be kept under control and on a leash as it could easily run out onto the road. We respectfully ask that the dog be kept downstairs, off the furniture and that you clean up after them before you leave. A €30 euro dog charge must be paid to Dream Ireland in advance of your stay.

LOCATION

It is possible to walk to Kenmare town from this property but the roads are narrow country roads with very little lighting. You could walk it in about 30 minutes at a reasonable pace. To drive to town would take less than 10 minutes.

Kenmare is located on the Wild Atlantic Way and is known as the jewel in the Ring of Kerry. No wonder with its location between two of the most beautiful touring routes in Europe - the Ring of Kerry and the Ring of Beara. These make for very enjoyable day trips from Kenmare.

Even strolling around the town is itself a pleasure with Kenmare having received awards from Entente Floral and the award for the Tidiest Town in Ireland in the year 2000.  Kenmare was recently awarded the accolade of Ireland's best kept town on the whole island of Ireland and deservedly so!
