    Nothing. zilch. nada. Absolutely nothing negative at all. Perfect stay. 5 star

    The Happy Pig is perfect. Everything was fantastic from the minute we arrived. The rooms are very comfortable. Location is perfect. Parking is well catered for. Irma is the nicest host you could ever hope for. The food is absolutely amazing. 10/10. We would not only love to come back, we would be happy to stay here forever! And for us - motorcycle friendly parking and a dry room! Perfection.

    Exceptional and quite possibly the best Guest House in Kerry.

    Irma and her staff were very hospitable and kind. Great advice on where to go, what to see and had an in-house genealogist to our surprise. Was an awesome experience, one we will do again. Oh! Breakfast was beautiful and delicious!!! Irma’s place is a must do when visiting Kenmare!

    Fabulous place to stay. Very clean. Proprietor was lovely, very kind & helpful. The grounds were stunning with lush flowering. Views of sheep and landscape beyond were lovely. Theres a refrigerator for medication or wine if you need. Furnishings inside were beautiful. There is private parking onsite which was great. And there is a great breakfast served every morning. Easy walk to downtown area. Honestly, I can’t say a bad word about this place. Next time, Im going to stay longer!

    The location was perfect: only a 7-minute walk to town, the room was super quiet and the beds were comfortable. Even the view from our room was spectacular. The water pressure in the shower was also divine. The breakfast phenomenal and we would not hesitate to return or suggest it to our friends. Thank you for the warm welcome and the lovely stay!

    Wonderfully cozy accommodation. Irma, our host, was so kind and helpful, and we felt welcome from the very first minute. The beds are really comfortable, it's very quiet at night, the breakfast is delicious, the living room is cozy with a stove, games and books. Tea and coffee are provided in the room. Perfect for hikers, right on the Kerry Way. Highly recommended!
