“The cottage exudes charm with its beautifully decorated rooms and convenient location, a short walk from Killarney's center yet peacefully set apart; the homemade brown bread at breakfast is a must-try. It feels more like staying with a thoughtful friend than in a conventional B&B. A genuinely welcoming and distinctive place.”
