History of the Village of Garrykennedy: Garrykennedy is one of Ireland's most beautiful villages. The history of the village dates back to 1450 when the village was the stronghold of the O’Kennedy clan. The ruins of their castle on the lake shore remains the centrepiece of the village today. The old stone Quay in the village was built in the late 1700's (extended in 1829) using stone from the old castle.

Things to do in Village of Garrykennedy: The cottage is located in the middle of the tiny lakeside village of Garrykennedy , Co. Tipperary. The village has approximately 10 other properties (including 2 musical pubs and restaurant). Larkins Pub and family style Restaurant (3 doors down from the cottage) recently featured in the Michelin Eating out in Pubs guide. It is one of only 16 Irish pubs that appear in the book's 550 best dining pubs in Britain and Ireland. Great food and friendly service. Great live traditional Irish music in the pub.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Our stay at the cottage was story book material ! It exceeded our expectations in every category. We had sunny weather every other day during our stay. The lake was simply picturesque. Larkin's Pub was beyond friendly. The cottage was extremely comfortable and equipped for our every need. We have already starting planning our next trip there. We can't say enough wonderful things about the cottage. Thank you so very much for a wonderful vacation and a lifetime memories.' Our Sincerest Gratitude, Kate B & Friends, New York, Oct 2002

We absolutely loved Garrykennedy Cottage. The location was great and cottage has lots of character. Prices were very reasonable. I'm a clean freak, and the cottage was very clean! The rooms were huge. Loved the garden and the flowers. The web site was so descriptive that there were NO surprises. My husband appreciated the fact that you responded to his e-mails within an hour. No complaints! Catherine and Greg L. Austin, Texas, USA

A Lovely

Review Submitted: July 29, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
GerryKennedy Cottage is located in a quaint little village on the shores of Loch Derg. This cottage is one of the few places we have rented from online photos and description that the actual home far exceeded the website description. The cottage,built in the 1700's, still reflects its history yet it has been magnificently updated to provide every possible modern amenity We were a family of five who rented this particular home primarily because of its proximity to family in Nenagh. We had plenty of room to relax and have quiet space and to entertain and visit with family. The gardens are lovely and provided views of the lake and the old castle while still being very private. The owner was very helpful both while planning our trip and during our stay. The village hosts two pubs and plenty of friendly people that made us feel welcome. We enjoyed their stories and music. There is a store within walking distance for the quick necessities of milk, bread etc. There were very nice stores in Nenagh (6 miles). While the cottage is ideally located to the major 'must see' attractions of Ireland what made this place special was that for a week we weren't tourists visiting Ireland we were experiencing Ireland first hand.
