Come and stay at Knockcarrig House and you will find your ideal balance between town and country. Our newly built property is situated on the edge of our private 20 acre farm, yet is less than a 5 minute drive to Killarney.

Located just off the N22 in the residential area of Lissivigeen, Knockcarrig House offers you the perfect base for touring the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula and the Ring of Beara. Green fields surround the house and in the Summer you will find our cattle enjoying all that lovely grass that nature has to offer :)

Elegant country living awaits you at Knockcarrig House. Parts of the interior are drawn from the natural landscape-from the golden hue of hay in the Summer to the proud pink foxgloves found in the mossy stone ditches. Each bedroom has its own bathroom with two possessing both a separate bath and shower.

Enjoy fabulous feasts at our custom designed 10 seater oak table found in our panoramic dining room which boasts mountain and meadow views. Relax in the evening with a good book in front of a roaring fire or challenge someone to a game of chess- the winner doesn't have to do the dishes!

Whether you wish to explore Killarney's lakes, climb its mountains, cycle its hills and valleys or stay put and enjoy the good life , the choice is yours........................

The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

The kitchen was amazing and very large - as was the entire house! The rooms were clean and beds very comfortable! Towels were thick and very nice. Noelle was a gracious host and had a welcome basket of food and wine when we arrived. This is one of the best places we have stayed at in all our travels! Beautiful grounds just outside of the city (5 minute drive to town). If you are in Killarney, you have to stay here!

Noelle's home was absolutely gorgeous--wish we could have stayed longer than 3 nights! From the smooth check-in process to the personal touches (including local food from their farm, among other treats), our stay here felt cozy and luxurious at the same time. It's only about 5 minutes down the road from the busy Killarney center, but you feel totally secluded on the property, and it was the perfect place to rest and recharge after days exploring Killarney National Park, the Ring of Kerry, and so much more. Highly recommend!

House is a real gem!!!! We had an absolutely fantastic time! The property was spotless, well-equipped, and perfectly situated to Killarney town. Noelle was fantastic, proactive and friendly, making check-in seamless. Plenty of space for everyone to relax, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals together. Another bonus is every room had bathroom with its own toilet and shower. Fantastic when you’re such a big group!! House far exceeded our expectations! We cannot wait to return!

The house is perfection in a wonderful and serene location next to two sweet cows who we fell in love with. It’s excellently appointed with everything you could need and Noelle is such a lovely and accommodating host. We only wish we could have stayed longer.
