About this property

1st Class Cottage Location - Teach Mor Cottage at The Priory Killarney Courtyard

Cozy & Comfortable at The Priory Killarney Courtyard Cottages - Relax in the great room of vaulted ceilings and exposed beams ceilings. Teach Mor is a two-level, 3 bedroom with 2 queen-sized beds (bedroom number 2 has a single bed as well) 2 bathrooms, and upstairs has a queen plus a single bed, an open plan cottage with a large sitting room/kitchen. Built in 2007. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is also a washer/dryer. Sleeps 8 comfortably.

Set on the door step of Killarney National Park we have four Courtyard Stone Cottages all of various design and layout. The cottages are tucked into a very beautiful and quite walled courtyard setting.

We are just off the Muckross Road. A 15 minute stroll into the Killarney Town Centre. A bike path to Muckross House and Gardens is across the Flesk Bridge.

Just a 5 minute walk to the INEC - Gleneagle Arena.

Loved this cottage in a beautiful setting that was secluded and quiet. Great communication with host, who met us upon arrival. Everything was clean and beds were comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped and washer and dryer were great to have. Close proximity to downtown and good location for other sites we wanted to see. Would definitely recommend Teach Mor!

Quiet and cozy in the Center of it All

A truly excellent location. Quaint and private but easy access to Killarney town and area activities. The cottage was outfitted with everything we needed for our family and the setting is lovely. You feel transported to another era but with all the modern conveniences. The host’s care and thoughtfulness of family needs was evident throughout. Plus they provided helpful hints and tips for exploring the local area.

About the host

Hosted by Tim O'Donoghue

Host profile image
Bernadette and Tim O’Donoghue met in The Windy City of Chicago in 1987. We acquired the property in 2002. We then returned from Chicago in 2004.
Bernadette was a paralegal secretary and is now a stay at home Mom and an excellent baker, I am an electrician by trade but got into construction during my 14 years in Chicago. I restored several old houses and classic vintage apartment buildings during my time there. I coupled this experience with Bernadette’s keen eye and interior design savvy to create some wonderful finishes and unusual touches. We began the colossal rehab project in 2004 to restore the Priory to its former glory, it was basically completed it in 2007 or is it ever complete I like to ask myself ?

We pride ourselves in welcoming you into our place.

Why they chose this property

I grew up in Killarney, where my parents owned a camping site and I truly loved meeting visitors on a daily basis. We have 4 children and we wanted to raise them here in Ireland, so we said we would give it a shot and here we are. When this property became available we realized how unique it was and what a fantastic opportunity it would be to own The Priory.

What makes this property unique

We are in a key location, a 15 minute walk from town but it feels like we are in the heart of the countryside where you cannot hear a sound by night.
You will get a quiet private house to yourself where you can come and go as you please. You can cook when you want and have the full use of the 1.5 acre property on private grounds. You can sit back and relax in the front of the wood burning stove fire sipping a nice Irish whiskey or reading a good book with the sweet smell of turf burning away. You will get the real feel of Irish living and live like we live ourselves while visiting in your home away from home.
We are on site owners who are here to help you in any way you require and assure a wonderful stay. We have invaluable knowledge about the local area from cultural information to hikes, local food joints to off the beaten track drives. We can organize in-house chef, or poetry recital or to a music session.

We like to tell our guests ''We are as near or as far as you wish.'
