I stayed for the week and really enjoyed the homely welcome and excellent food. I thoroughly recommend Blackstones House and plan to return some time. More

We savored Breda's gourmet cooking, warm hospitality and cozy fire after a long, wet day of hiking on The Kerry Way. Absolutely wonderful in every way!!! More

Once there, you do more than see the beauty of the Irish countryside and way of life, you "experience" it. Breeda did a fantastic job of making sure Mike and I felt at home at Blackstone House.

Karen and I loved it. Pure Irish simplicity. Wonderful country setting which allows for peaceful reflection at the end of the day and a good base to plan your next days travels. The breakfast was amazing and kept you going until evening. Simple, but wonderful. More

We can't even describe how wonderful our time at Blackstones House was. My partner and I hired a car and drove to Blackstones House from Dublin.

I would highly recommend it. Very clean and she makes and serves the breakfast; traditional Irish farmhouse. You can tell she works... More

While the great majority of tourists dutifully "do" the Ring of Kerry, which is scenic and most enjoyable, few decide to travel inland into the mountainous areas of the county. If one does, there are rewards of wonderful upland scenery -- mountains, including Ireland's highest, moorland, and vast sweeps of countryside that delight the eye. Perhaps twelve or thirteen miles... More
