What a great house for a group of people to get together in, whether it be family, or friends and it is even spacious enough to survive including the in-laws!
We stayed at the Sanctuary for 5 days recently and have to say the house is fantastic for a large group. There is a fabulous open space dining/kitchen/living space downstairs and a deceptively large upstairs accommodating further bedrooms with en-suites plus sauna/steam shower room.
Our group included all ages from 5 upwards and the house comfortably accommodates all, with plenty of rooms for the small ones to play in, the teenagers were very happy with the 'DISCO/STEAM' shower and the large TV in the bedrooms providing them with their own little 'den'! The weather was mixed while we were there but make so much more bearable by the really comfortable living area with smart TV.
The house is just a stones throw away from Killarney National Park and we started our few days away with a lovely walk through the park to Ross Castle which is well worth a visit and highly recommend the tour also. Another day we all hired bikes and spent a lovely few hours exploring the park. We visited Muckross House, Torc waterfall, explored Killarney and even managed to bring the girls surfing on the famous Inch Beach, only 30 minutes away where despite the weather they had a ball. Meanwhile , golf was a priority for some of the group and needless to say, they were spoilt for choice .
The beds in the house are extraordinary comfortable and very welcome after our activity filled days with a little vino in the evenings. All in all, I would have to say the house was perfect for us, spacious, bright, clean , a touch of luxury but with nothing too precious in it for the kids to destroy!
