    Marty,

    There's 2 that are pretty good but the prices in Killarney are usually a bit on the dear side. Whitebridge is probably the nicer one but a bit distant from pubs etc. I can't remember the name of the second one, It may be Flemmings. Will check the book tonight. It's next to the Gleneagle Hotel (Bar, pool etc) and also near the National Park. You can cycle from it into the National park without usung the public roads. Just cross the main road outdide the campsite & you're on roads for walkers/cyclists/horses. Handy with kids. Will check later.

    I stayed in the Flesk before. It was very handy for going into town near a shop/petrol station within walking distance.
