Ardfert Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in Ardfert, County Kerry

"great place"

"This is an excellent place to experience and explore the natural beauty that surrounds you in this part of Ireland. Jenn and her staff are experienced professionals who are also world travelers and who understand the grace notes of hospitality. A beautiful, well tended garden greats you when you park in the spacious driveway, complete with electric car charger. You are greeted by a chocolate lab, an adorable corgi and your host upon your agreed upon arrival time. This first thing that struck me was how absolutely perfectly peaceful everything was. The home is brilliantly designed with guest comfort in mind with fully stocked tea rooms throughout that offer a private space for a relaxing break after a busy day of hiking, jaunting, boating or horseback riding. The Beaufort Pub is an 8 minute walk down the road and offers an excellent pint, great local color and conversation along with spirited dart games. Further up the road is another delightful experience of Irish history at Kate Kearney’s Cottage. Excellent food, great service and a comfortable pub atmosphere greets you at Kate’s. This is an excellent place to stop before or after your exploration of the Gap of Dunloe, The Black Valley and/or the Lakes of Killarney. Hop into a horse driven cart at Kate’s or walk up the road for a day filled with adventure, ending in Killarney National Park with a boat ride through the Lakes to Ross Castle. Talk to Jenn about local activities, she is an expert on this area."

"While vintage in appearance, the Grand Hotel looks impeccable and very clean. The staff was very helpful and friendly. While we did not have the available hot breakfast, we chose the fresh fruit, yogurt, cereals and out of the oven, delicious scones. Highly recommended. "

"Wonderful stay! Our son and family booked a family room that was huge! We also had a lovely 2 person room. The grandkids loved the Irish Wolfhounds that freely roam the property. The bar is exquisite; the dining room lovely (and delicious); the grounds beautiful and staff were wonderful! Highly recommend. "
