The house was closed when we went but the gardens were lovely and worth a visit on their own. They were also free to go round. Lovely setting right by the coast.
The house is very cool to walk around and entry was free, but their cafe closed at 4, with no indication online or onsite, leaving us very disappointed. The location is gorgeous and we loved out walk around the woodlands.
Fun place to visit. Definitely take time to explore the surrounding gardens and park. Well maintained and easy to park. Overflow parking is just up the road.
A beautiful place, nestled between the Atlantic and the coastal mountains of Kerry.
In the house you get a very interesting insight into the eventful life of Daniel O'Connell. You can get good, inexpensive food in the tearoom.
What I found most beautiful was the extensive, well-kept garden with many tropical plants. The beach is very large and spacious by Irish standards and is definitely worth a visit.
