This house was so neat. Makes you feel like a Rockefeller hanging out in a fabulous summer home. Gardens and grounds are stunning and dinner and drinks are cooked/made to order on an individual basis. Plenty of places to find a book, a view, and complete serenity. Wonderful secret!

Lovely stay at the Ard na Sidhe Country House. Very peaceful and tranquil setting. Such a beautiful location. Wonderful gardens and very classy main house. Food was wonderful. Our rooms were in the garden house, and was clean and comfortable although a little warm during our unseasonably warm visit. Great staff all around. Easy parking and great location. Much prefer this stay over crowded Killarney.

What we liked about this property was EVERYTHING! From the drive through an enchanted forest to the lake views to the elegant stone guest house with the most fabulous dinner, and kind and accommodating wait staff AND the room in the Garden House was extremely clean and comfortable. And to top it off, while walking the manicured lawns with magnificent trees, we spotted deer grazing in the gardens with no fear of onlookers. There were many photo ops at this lovely place!

Sehr schön gepflegtes altes Manor House in traumhafter Lage. Die Zimmer im Alten Haus sowie die Salons haben einen speziellen Flair.Man ist auf das Dinner und Frühstück dort angewiesen wenn man nicht endlos fahren will. Es hat seinen Preis ist aber excellent. Der Service ist sehr zuvorkommend. Bin nach Jahren das zweite Mal dort gewesen.
