“Ard na Sidhe's lakeside manor”

Ard na Sidhe Country House is a beautifully-maintained Kerry manor and possible best-ever stay — understated elegance in big delightful beautifully-decorated rooms, magnificent flower-filled grounds on Caragh Lake's shore, a peaceful back-patio of birdsong and breeze, an excellent restaurant and divine food, and bend-over-backwards thoughtful staff (Debbie's team praised). One caveat: the garden-view rooms run small — guests recommend the main house instead. Otherwise an idyllic quiet escape.
