Dun Aonaigh with spectacular mountain views. Enjoy a peaceful country retreat.

Dun Aonaigh Holiday Home is ideally situated in the Reeks District close to the Ring of Kerry and the iconic Wild Atlantic Way. It’s just three miles from Killorglin, home of Puck Fair, and less than half an hour from the bustling town of Killarney. Enjoy fantastic views of the splendid MacGillycuddy Reeks and Carrauntoohil, Ireland’s highest mountain, in a peaceful and tranquil setting, yet close enough to gain easy access to all the main tourist attractions in Kerry.

The comfortable three-bedroomed accommodation comprises a light and airy sitting room, spacious and well-equipped kitchen-diner, laundry room, and bathroom with shower and bath.
One of the bedrooms, with king-size bed, has an en-suite bathroom,
Second bedroom has a double and king size bed,
The third has two single beds
offering very flexible accommodation for up to eight people. Outside, enjoy the space with a one-acre garden and fantastic mountain views.

There’s plenty to do and see in the area: walking, swimming (Dun Aonaigh is in easy reach of Rossbeigh, a Blue Flag beach), playing a round of golf, enjoying a day’s fishing, exploring the Reeks District or touring the Dingle Peninsula, the Ring of Kerry and the Wild Atlantic Way. In the evening, dine in and watch the sun go down from the patio area.
Alternatively, eat out: Killorglin offers a great choice with cuisines to suit all tastes and pockets.
As an added bonus, Debra your host is happy to provide a wealth of information about places to visit and things to do. Employed in the local tourism industry and living in an adjacent property, she’s on hand to offer advice and answer any queries.
The bay windows look out at panoramic views of the Mcgillycuddy Reeks and Ireland's highest mountain.
Situated beside a 3 ring fairy fort in Dungeel (fort of the fairies) it gives you the feeling of total relaxation.
You will have all the home comforts with wifi, satellite TV, DVDs player , laundry room, a changing room for wet clothes after fishing or hiking.
You will find all the household essentials required to make your stay comfortable.
I have lots of tourist information in the house for your use.
Supermarkets open till 11 pm for late arrivals. You are 500m off the Ring of Kerry N72 road ideally located to tour Killarney, Dingle Peninsula and the Wild Atlantic Way.
Stay with me in the Reeks District for a few days, you will be guaranteed to need a few days to see everything that Mid Kerry has to offer.

Beautiful countryside cottage retreat
Everything was so peaceful and tranquil. The views of the mountains took my breath away. Debra, the host, who lives upstairs came and greeted us. She was wonderful, full of local knowledge and things to do. She recommended a local live music session - it was fantastic! I would definitely stay again!

An excellent starting point to so many day trips
We only stayed at the home for a couple nights, but the experience was amazing. The owner is awesome and very helpful. The home has a great layout with a living room with excellent lighting and view of the mountains. The home is equipped with everything you’ll need and the beds are very comfortable. We will definitely return to this home on our next trip.
