h our friendly staff and other guests! For those who don’t know, Killarney is Ireland's premiere tourist destination and a great base with access to all of the stunning South West of Ireland. Be warned though – many people have been so inspired and enchanted by the beauty of the scenery and laid-back, cheerful nature of the locals that they end up wanting to move out here for good!
