  • "Fabulous house - spotless inside and out."

    Very spacious - fully equipped in the kitchen and throughout. We particularly enjoyed the surrounding scenery with the location of the house in the hills. Loved the views from every window and such a peaceful setting. Although some might find the area remote, it is just 7 miles from the lively town of Kenmare and 5 minutes drive from Bonane Heritage Park which we found very interesting. We would definitely recommend staying in The Skating Rock and would stay there again!

About the location

KENMARE, COUNTY KERRY

Glengarriff 19 miles; Killarney 25 miles.

A picturesque town situated on the stunning Bay of Kenmare, overlooking the gleaming Atlantic Ocean. Beautiful beaches, wildlife and lovely scenery abound here. The coastline is rugged with sandy beaches close by, while pebble beaches surround the bay itself. Kenmare is an interesting town, full of character and colour, with long winding streets setting the scene for farmers' markets, artists' galleries, lovely little boutiques and some of the best restaurants in Ireland! The town is also situated on the Ring of Kerry and Wild Atlantic Way. The famous town of Killarney has an abundance of attractions, pubs, festivals and its National Park is about 35 minutes’ drive away, and though there is much to see and do here, the pace of life is still leisurely and unhurried. With the Beara and Dingle Peninsulas nearby and the Ring of Kerry and Wild Atlantic Way to explore, makes this an ideal base for exploring Kerry to Cork. This great location is not to be missed!
