Everything about this property, and our stay there, was fantastic.
Our group comprised seven family members - all adults - touring Ireland for two weeks. The five bedrooms upstairs - each with its’ own ensuite bathroom - couldn’t have been more perfect for our group, with one bedroom to spare.
Everything about the house and property is exactly as it looks in the photos. Exactly.
What you can’t see in the photos is the amazing host. Noelle met us on site even though our arrival was delayed, and took her time to show us where everything was located in every single room.
And then there was very large starter gift basket on the kitchen counter…..which meant no need for grocery shopping until the next morning.
In short, if you need a base for a group to explore Killarney, Ring of Kerry, Dingle, etc….stop looking, and stay here.

Our bridal suite had some sort of mix up and we didn’t end up having a place for the bridal party to get ready. Thankfully this house had more than enough space for the entire party to get ready including the grooms side!
we had a lovely time at this house and would recommend for anyone for any occasion :)

We had a fabulous stay at the house! It was a group of 7 of us including 3 kids. Noelle was so welcoming and went over everything with us so we knew where everything was and the house was perfectly stocked. We had so much room and the kids enjoyed looking at the cows and playing in the grass. It was a great location for Killarney activities. 100/10, would recommend over and over again!

The house was perfect for our family of five adults. Loved the location (and the cows out in the pasture). Wished we had more time to spend enjoying the house. Noelle was a great host - very responsive. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a fabulous time in the house which is ideally located for a quick drive into Killarney. Only thing I would change would be the size of the beds, the Queen beds did feel small. Apart from that everything else was perfect!

We rented this amazing spot when my husband and I and our siblings travelled to Ireland. The home was stunning! Spacious, elegant, spotless and beautifully appointed. It was a beautiful peaceful spot and allowed us all to relax, cook together and enjoy a wonderful reunion. Our hostess Noelle was fantastic! Highly recommend this beautiful spot!

We (3 families) stayed at this property to celebrate my mother’s 70th birthday. It was even better than the pictures and our expectations. The host, Noelle, was generous and accommodating. The property was impeccably clean and very comfortable. Conveniently located near the shops and national park. We hope to visit again!

Fiona is an amazing and gracious host. Arriving with a guest basket of high quality goodies, fresh baked bread and wine. Wonderful, cozy, bright clean home. So close to the Ring of Kerry gateway, and the fun town of Killarney. A must rent in the south of Ireland!

An amazing house with a lovely host who provided a delicious welcome package! Thank you Noelle! We were a group of 10 and never felt crowded. From the patio with wine, coffee, and rambunctious teenagers (cows). The kitchen and dining space was very spacious, grand and such a great space for gathering. The ensuite rooms were so perfect for our large group with plenty of hot water and privacy when needed. Hiking in Killarney NP and biking the Dingle coast was a highlight in the area.

We loved our stay at Knockcarrig House. We had 2 grown families staying at the property, for a total of 9. The house was laid out perfectly to accommodate our needs. The five separate en-suites were greatly appreciated. The kitchen was very well stocked. A large dining area could accommodate all. A separate laundry room with separate washer and dryer was great. And Noelle was wonderful. She stayed in touch both before and during our stay. The tour she provided of the house was great … she thought of everything we could possibly need. It was a wonderful experience for our first trip to Ireland. We are looking for reasons to come back and stay at Knockcarrig house again!

We were 7 adults staying here over New Years and I couldn’t rate this place highly enough. The en suite bathrooms for every room is such a bonus, especially if you have a lots of couples staying. All decent size rooms too. The house was lovely and warm and equipped with everything you need. Showers are powerful with hot water. Noelle was so easy to communicate with and left a fabulous hamper on arrival. We have already recommended this place to friends and would absolutely stay here again. It’s a great find!

Knockcarrig House was a perfect home away from home for our large family group of nine. Noelle has really thought out every detail of guests needs and brought it all together in this beautiful country home! I could not think of any flaw in house or hostess, and would recommend wholeheartedly!!

Amazing stay in Killarney
This was an amazing property. Probably the nicest VRBO we have stayed in. The house was immaculate and large with room to spread out. Having 5 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms was perfect for our group of 10. The kitchen was wonderful to cook in and the treats left by the host were very much appreciated. Noelle met us at the property and we had wonderful communication leading up to and through out our stay. I would love to come back here again some day and would tell everyone I know to stay at this property. Truly made out time in Killarney memorable and wonderful.

First, I would like to thank Noelle for a such a beautiful and welcoming place. House is much better than on the pictures for sure. And if I could give 10 stars I would do 100%. Bedrooms are spacious and with the nice and clean bathrooms. Kitchen has everything what you can dream about. Kids spend lots of time in the evenings playing board games and also it was beautiful choice of books too . Kerry is one of my favourite county's in Ireland with amazing views, mountains, parks and beaches and much more. Now we have found our favourite place to stay while visiting Co.Kerry. Thank you so much for beautiful memories. Highly recommended to everyone ☀️Kind regards Natalia and friends

Amazing hostess and property!!
We cannot say enough about our stay in Ireland at Noelle's property. She is a fantastic hostess and home owner. Her communication with us prior to our travels was amazing. Her hospitality and assistance with checking in to the house was incredible. Any time we had a question she was right there. The house is just absolutely stunning! It is beyone immaculate and the charm is true Ireland. You feel right at home in such a stately, yet modern home. The grounds were impeccable and the house had everything you could possibly want or need. We definitely recommend this property to anyone traveling and staying in Killarney. Noelle and Paul are the best!!!

Extraordinary accommodation and host
Knockcarrig house did not disappoint. It is as attractive a place to stay as the pictures on VRBO suggest. It was well appointed and spotless. Noelle Casey is a host extraordinaire. From our first communication she was warm, welcoming and most helpful. (My only concern in booking was whether it was close enough to Killarney town and that was not an issue.). . We were a group of 8 well traveled women and we ALL enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful and comfortable property!
If I could give 10 stars for this lovely home, I would. The house is just beautiful, and so conveniently located to Killarney and the Ring of Kerry. Noelle is very welcoming, and she has thought of everything to make her guests happy and comfortable. We have stayed in many lovely homes over the years, but this was our absolute favorite. Thanks Noelle for a wonderful week at Knockcarrig House!

We stayed at the house with another family and it was such a wonderful experience. We were a big group (9 in total), but there was plenty of space for all of us. The kitchen and eating area were especially nice and large, making eating times easy for so many people. Noelle greeted us when we arrived at the house and gave us a thorough lay of the land, which was greatly appreciated. She even had a basket of goodies waiting for us, many of which we devoured right away after a long overseas flight and then drive to Killarney. Again, this little touch was greatly appreciated.There were books for both adults and kids to enjoy, as well as games and puzzles. Our kids especially enjoyed their daily visits with the cows that live in the adjacent field. The front yard/garden was also large enough for the kids to play Gaelic football and tag with their cousins.We will be back in Killarney, and would absolutely stay here again. Very highly recommended!
