Delightful cottage

My family of five loved our stay at the coach house. Bernadette and Tim were accessible, helpful, and a wealth of knowledge about the area. We were able to explore Killarney park, walk to town, and it was a perfect base for day trips to other locations. Highly recommend! The cottage was clean, well-stocked and spacious. Thank you!

SPECTACULAR Coach House

This property is beautiful. The hosts communicated clearly and check in was simple and quick. The beds were comfortable, the area was quiet and located just outside the town. Everything was smooth and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped, the washer dryer was very handy. We would definitely stay here again!

Fabulous stay in Killarney VRBO

The most gorgeous house we have ever stayed in! Check in was seamless thanks to Bernadette's prompt communication. The house was perfect and had everything we needed, including extra linens and laundry. Plus, we got a surprise visit from the host's dogs in the morning - absolute loves. In sum, I could not recommend the Coach House more highly - it was perfect for our stay in Killarney. Thank you so much to our wonderful hosts.

Great base to exlore the National Park and Rings of Kerry and Dingle

We only had one prior communication with the host about our late arrival, wasn't an issue, lights in cottage were on and key in the door when we srrived at 9:30pm. We met the host Bernadette a couple days later and she had a lot of additional suggestions for our sightseeing plans and recommendations for dinner. Cottage was great, very spacious and clean. Great location about 20-30min on foot to town with plenty of eating options. About 10min by car to supermarkets in town.

LOVED IT!!

We immediately fell in love with The Priory! It is exactly what we were looking for in a cozy cottage in Ireland. The owners were very helpful and were right on property if we needed anything. Of course, their pups were one of the highlights of our trip. We couldn’t wait for Teddy, their Cocker Spaniel to visit our cottage each morning. Staying here was like a welcomed step back in time and a breath of fresh air from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The cottage was nestled away from the town, but close enough for a quick drive or a 15 min walk. We miss the cottage already, and would absolutely love to return some day if we get back to Ireland. This is a must stay!!

Picture perfect

The Priory was the perfect place, from the adorable living arrangements to the accommodating hosts we had the ideal week. The Priory has the peaceful quiet of the country while being close enough to downtown for a healthy walk to enjoy the great pubs of Killarney. Opening Night of the horse races was a real treat and again was just a stone's throw down the road. The host was extremely helpful with information on routes, local eateries, and the roads less traveled. After long days of golf and sight seeing the Priory was an inviting spot to gather and retell stories of our daily adventures. This was one of our favorite family vacation spots and we all look forward to coming back.

Killarney is a lovely town to stay in and is beautiful in its own right. It also provides a wonderful base while you explore the region and take in day trips such as the ring of Kerry and the Dingle peninsular and the surrounding villagesTim and Bernadette have created a little bit of magic I thier Priory and was such a comfortable place to come home to after a day of site seeing. It was spacious enough for the five adults in our family, was so clean and well presented we felt very much at home.Tim and Bernadette were great hosts who were there if u needed a chat or advice but also new the value of family holidays and privacy.A great stay and thank you very much

We stayed at the Priory for four nights for a work trip. We were working in the forest all week and it was great to come back to a warm wood stove and excellent jacuzzi / shower. We also made use of the washer and dryer provided.
