In a quiet suburb within walking distance of Killarney's center, this spacious guesthouse is furnished with interesting antiques collected by Emer Moynihan, who likes to greet her guests by offering home-baked goods in front of the open fire. The front lounge is a popular meeting place, where you can peruse the menus of local restaurants, read up on Kerry's attractions, or go online. Bedrooms are spacious, with large bathrooms, a mix of antique and reproduction Victorian furniture, and unfussy decor with plain walls and dark colors. Older rooms have balconies, others feature four-poster beds, and some have Jacuzzi baths. Breakfast is served in a large, cheerful room; menu choices include pancakes and kippers. The house has a wine license. Pros: quiet location; plenty of parking; warm welcome. Cons: long walk or taxi ride to town; bland suburban location.
