Ireland trip
Owner was accommodating and attentive. He quickly fixed a bad outlet while we were out and was able to provide a box to ship souvenirs home. We arrived earlier than anticipated and were able to sit in the living room while the cleaning was completed upstairs, which was appreciated given the long journey. The location was amazing, so close to the Ring of Kerry, and the grounds of the house were like stepping back in time with a village/cottage feel. The house was great with ample space for our party. The washer AND separate dryer were a nice surprise as most are combos and the dryer doesn't work well. They worked great and were convenient for us as we head on to the second part of our trip. CONS The house needs a thorough deep cleaning, especially on top of the light fixtures in the kitchen (everywhere really). Additionally the stove was not cleaned when we arrived and the cleaning lady had already cleaned the kitchen. Likely an oversight. The toilet in the half bath (inside the kitchen) does not flush well. The owner is aware of this problem as the last guests let him know. There are light bulbs out in many areas of the house including the kitchen counter pendant and the top bedroom on the left (main ceiling and one on the wall above the bed). This was a problem because you do not have a light to turn on when you walk in that room unless you walk over to the bedside table. There are three clocks in the living room and none of them worked. There were batteri

About the host

Hosted by Tim O'Donoghue

Host profile image
Bernadette and Tim O’Donoghue met in The Windy City of Chicago a few years back. We acquired the property in 2002. We then returned from Chicago in 2004.

Bernadette was a paralegal secretary and is now a stay at home Mom and an excellent baker, I am an electrician by trade but got into construction during my 14 years in Chicago. I restored several old houses and classic vintage apartment buildings during my time there. I coupled this experience with Bernadette’s keen eye and interior design savvy to create some wonderful finishes and unusual touches. We began the colossal rehab project in 2004 to restore the Priory to its former glory ,it was basically completed it in 2007 or is it ever complete I like to ask myself ?

We pride ourselves in welcoming you into our place.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Killarney, where my parents owned a camping site and I truly loved meeting visitors on a daily basis. We have 4 children and we wanted to raise them here in Ireland, so we said we would give it a shot and here we are.When this property became available we realized how unique it was and what a fantastic opportunity it would be to own The Priory.

What makes this property unique

We are in a key location, a ten minute walk from town but it feels like we are in the heart of the countryside where you cannot hear a sound by night.
You will get a quiet private house to yourself where you can come and go as you please. You can cook when you want and have the full use of the 1.5 acre property on private grounds. You can sit back and relax in the front of the open hearth fire sipping a nice Irish whiskey or reading a good book with the sweet smell of turf burning away.
This cottage has a large tub you can slip into and soothe the soul after a hectic day.
You will get the real feel of Irish living and live like we live ourselves while visiting in your home away from home.
We are on site owners who are here to help you in any way you require and assure a wonderful stay. We have invaluable knowledge about the local area from cultural information to hikes, local food joints to off the beaten track drives. We can organize in-house chef, or poetry recital or to a music session.
