About Rockcrest House

A proper Kerry welcome — the kind you remember.

Rockcrest is the home Marian and David built for guests almost forty years ago, and it still runs the way they like it: unhurried, personal, and deeply local. Every morning starts with a hot breakfast and Marian’s homemade brown bread; every evening with tips on the best restaurants and walks of the day.

The house has five comfortable en-suite bedrooms, a guest lounge with an open fire for cooler evenings, and a quiet garden that catches the morning sun. The Ring-of-Kerry road, Reenagross woodland walk and Kenmare town are all minutes away on foot.
