An unexpected excellent experience while driving the Ring of Kerry. Wonderfully preserved building and well documented self-tour and short video history. As a visiting American, it was interesting to "connect the dots" to more encounters with historic figure Daniel O'Connell.
Cafe was lovely, excellent gluten free bread & big pots of tea. The famous carriage was astonishing. Gardens stunning. Beach very nice too. Thank you Derrynane!
Interesting historic home of Mr. O'Connell (who gives the name of the famous boulevard in Dublin, where the Spire is), it has a beautiful big garden and beautiful white sand beaches and dunes to explore as part of the property. If you're a bit of a nervous driver on Irish narrow roads, use Derrynane Garden Village road to reach it from/to Ring of Kerry (not Derrynane More which is tighter and steeper).
