The spectacular expanse of mountains and lakes known as the
Killarney National Park covers 26,000 acres to the south and west
of Killarney town in lovely County Kerry. Visitors to our Kerry
cottages will jump at the chance to spend a day here, and there is
so much on offer. Ireland's highest mountain range,
McGillycuddy's Reeks, lie within the park, and its slopes sweep
down to the shores of the beautiful Killarney lakes. There are
wonderful walking trails through shaded woodland dells and past
waterfalls, or if Kerry cottage guests want to take it really easy,
then take a ride in one of the well-known jarveys or horse-drawn
carriages available for hire.
Muckross House and Gardens are the famous centre-piece to the
National Park, and anyone on a Ireland vacation cottage holiday
will relish the chance to stroll in the extensive gardens, which
run down to the lakes edge. Tours of the house can be taken, and
there are craft shops, a restaurant and a collection of traditional
farms on site, which offer a fascinating insight into rural life of
times gone by.
Whether spending a week in a County Kerry cottage or simply passing
through on a day trip from one of the neighbouring counties, the
Killarney National Park is a wonderful opportunity to get close to
nature amid beautiful surroundings, and you may well find one day
is not enough to explore.

I found Hogans a first class company. From my first call the staff were very helpful & knowledgeable about the area we were going to. If the sales team were busy they always phoned back. Having a wide choice of cottages & ferry package made booking the holiday very easy. I will definitely use Hogans again
