Perfect Getaway

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.

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!!

Family Milestones

This was a trip of a lifetime—25th Wedding Anniversary, milestone birthdays for my wife and kids—incredible. The Coach House at The Priory was absolutely perfect and we loved our stay. Bernadette and Tim were outstanding hosts—friendly, quick to respond to questions, and always available for local advice. The property itself is beautiful and is in a great location—accessible to everything Killarney has to offer, but also tucked away from the bustle enough to be quiet and peaceful. Our highest recommendation possible—thank you, Bernadette and Tim!

Lovely coach house in a sea of flowers

The coach house is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay in a historic building. The whole Priory is very quiet and perfect for relaxing or hiking the Killarney National Park. The next grocery is just 10 minutes walking distance. Bernadette - the host - was very helpful with recommendations and helped arranging trips.

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.

Perfect stay in Killarney

There is so much to love about the Priory Coach House! The quiet, bucolic location is ideal; we walked into town as well as to events at the racetrack and INEC. The house itself has all the modern conveniences, yet is full of traditional Irish charm. Killarney is a very fun town; we loved the pubs and easy access to the National Park and Ring Road. Our hosts were super helpful and we loved the sweet, friendly pups. We adore the Kingdom of Kerry and can't wait to go back. Thanks for a delightful and memorable stay!

All the comforts of home while in Kilarney

The stay had all the comforts of being in a home while traveling. We cooked a few meals, washed clothes, watched Tv after spending days exploring. Everything was convenient including getting groceries. We did not have a car because we booked tours but that was not a problem at this location. The courtyard and cherry trees were lovely. Would definitely stay again.
