Birchwood is an excellent location if you're interested in exploring the coasts but avoiding the Killarney tourist crowds. It's in an ideal position as a home base for exploring Beara Peninsula, the Ring of Kerry, and Dingle and the Slea Head Drive (and Tom will give you tips on places to go). I stayed four nights, which was perfect. Birchwood is also 15 minutes from Kenmare, which is a great little town with wonderful restaurants, pubs, and live music. Tom is a delightful host with delicious breakfasts, and it's a beautiful property.

Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits chez Tom. Logement superbe, très propre et magnifique extérieur. Tom est un hôte formidable, d'une grande gentillesse et son aide Mary est très drôle ! Les pe***** déjeuners sont exceptionnels. Je recommande !

Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans ce B&B et avons passé un excellent séjour ! Confort plutôt rustique dans le style mais rien ne manque et c'est très propre Nous avons apprécié le caractère authentique des lieux et la personnalité des hôtes Tom et Mary Merci à eux pour la confection d'excellents pe***** déjeuners, l'humour de Mary et les conseils de Tom pour les balades.
