The properties are located 5 miles from the main Ring of Kerry route. The area has a long and historic connection with the 2 Skellig Islands, which lie seven miles from the mainland. To appreciate the beauty of Ballinskelligs Bay and its beautiful Blue Flag beach, (to the west of which stands the ruins of McCarthys Castle), stroll the peaceful sandy shore with its miles of magical colour. Take the high road to Bolus Head and visit the artists at work in the restored famine village of Cill Rialaig. Visit the Cill Rialaig Art and Heritage Centre in Dungegan and view the paintings and other works of art. A visit to the Skellig Chocolate Factory is a must where you can sample the irresistible brandy and champagne truffles made there. Other local amenities include the championship golf course in Waterville, made more famous from renowned golfers such as Tiger Woods and the late Payne Stewart playing there. The area would also be famous for both sea and lake fishing.
