I had a lovely stay at Kenmare House. The location was perfect, allowing me to easily walk into the charming hamlet of Kenmare without needing my car. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean, making for a comfortable environment. However, the only downside was I wish I could have spent more time exploring the area around Gleninchaquin Park, which looked stunning from what I could see during my brief visits.

I had a nice one-night stay at Kenmare House, where the warm hospitality from Fionnuala made all the difference. My large room was comfortable and clean, although it could have benefited from a fridge. The breakfast was a highlight, with delicious homemade breads and a variety of options available. However, the location is a bit of a trek from the town center, which wasn’t ideal after a long day of hiking. Overall, it's a pleasant bed-and-breakfast experience! 😊
