Getting around

We are in the countryside about 2kms from the village of Portroe (petrol station shop, takeaway, one pub, Church, hairdresser) and another 2kms from Garrykennedy Harbour (2 pubs, one serving food, marina, little playground) A car is necessary to explore the stunning areas around as there is no public transport here. But you could organise to arrive by bus in Nenagh (11kms) and get a taxi to us then you can walk around.

Interaction with guest

We live here on site, your own quarters are upstairs (14 steps and a safety gate) we are downstairs so we can meet in the kitchen, garden or bump into each other in the corridor but we're not in each other's way, the layout of the house is ideal for everybody's privacy. There's lots of touristic information available at the B&B but my husband has all the local knowledge that's not in the brochures. If we happen to be out, we'll let you know how to reach us.
