The fantastic
Kerry hostel is located 8 miles from the small Beaufort village and perfectly situated for many off the beaten track activities. This corner of Ireland is truly breathtaking. It is located on the Kerry Way and the Macgillycuddy Reeks and Carrauntoohill are both accessible from the hostel. The Macgillycuddy Reeks are the highest mountains in Ireland.
Its stunning location makes this hostel ideal for any visitors looking to discover the natural beauty of Ireland. Horse riding is available at the nearby Gap of Dunloe and boating in the Upper Lakes of Killarney.
"I have been going here for 40 years and still haven't found anywhere as nice. Great people, beautiful place." M.Keogh, April 2006
