A Break in County Kerry
Discover the Magic of the Kingdom
Slow down, explore, and experience the beauty of Kerry from Ballygarry Estate
There is something wonderfully restorative about a break in County Kerry.
Perhaps it is the mountains rising in the distance, the fresh Atlantic air, winding country roads, golden beaches or the feeling that there is always another beautiful corner waiting to be discovered.
Whether you are planning a romantic escape, a relaxing spa break, a family adventure or simply a few days away from the everyday, Kerry offers the perfect opportunity to slow down and reconnect.
And at the heart of it all, Ballygarry Estate Hotel & Spa provides a peaceful base from which to experience it.
Your Kerry Adventure Starts Here
Set in the countryside just outside Tralee, Ballygarry is surrounded by the landscapes that make County Kerry so special. The Estate sits beneath the Slieve Mish Mountains, with beautifully landscaped gardens, walking trails and extensive rewilded grounds to explore.
Sometimes the best part of a break is not having anywhere to be.
Take a leisurely stroll around the Estate. Follow the trails into the surrounding countryside. Borrow a complimentary bicycle and explore nearby Ballyseedy Woods, or simply find a quiet spot to sit and enjoy the views.
Then, return to Ballygarry and let the pace slow even further.
Explore the Best of Kerry
One of the joys of staying in Tralee is the choice of experiences on your doorstep.
Kerry is home to some of Ireland’s most spectacular scenery, from the mountains and lakes around Killarney to the rugged Atlantic coastline and picturesque villages of the Dingle Peninsula.
For those who love the open road, the Ring of Kerry offers an unforgettable journey through dramatic mountain landscapes, coastal scenery, beaches and traditional towns and villages. Ireland’s official tourism website recommends taking your time rather than rushing the route – the perfect approach for a Kerry break.
Closer to home, explore Tralee and its surrounding countryside before returning to the tranquillity of the Estate.
The beauty of Ballygarry’s location is that you can fill your days with adventure or do very little at all.
Make Time to Relax
A great break is about more than seeing new places. It is also about making time for yourself.
After a day exploring Kerry, there is nowhere better to unwind than Nádúr Spa. Surrounded by gardens and natural beauty, the spa provides a peaceful setting in which to relax and recharge.
For those looking to completely disconnect, Ballygarry’s Estate Cabins offer another way to experience the Kerry countryside. Set within the Estate, the cabins are designed to encourage guests to switch off, reconnect with nature and enjoy a more private escape. Guests can also make use of the Estate trails and spa facilities during their stay.
Taste the Kingdom
No trip to Kerry is complete without enjoying some of the wonderful local produce the region has to offer.
At Ballygarry, dining is an important part of the experience, with the culinary team placing an emphasis on quality ingredients and locally sourced produce. Whether you are enjoying a relaxed meal in the Brasserie or a special dining experience, there is something satisfying about ending a day of exploring around the table with good food and good company.
