Jim’s advice as to where to eat; what areas to explore, and the best drives in the region really added to our enjoyment. A nice variety of breakfast meals and his accommodation of my gluten allergy was much appreciated.

Jim gave us lots of information about what to see. He is very personable. Breakfast was very good. Loved the sausages and good hot tea. Beds were comfortable. Room was very clean. Towels were somewhat tired. TV is very small but we didn’t watch it so no problem.

Jim and his family were incredibly lovely! During our visit to Killarney, my boyfriend and I stayed with them and received such warm welcomes. One morning, we had to leave very early for a hike, and although it was too early for breakfast, Jim thoughtfully left food out for us. Thank you, Jim and family, for such a wonderful experience in Killarney! Highly recommended :)

Jim was friendly and gave us very good advice re our excursions. Breakfast menu had several choices. Beds were comfortable. Lots of parking on the property. Convenient location to Ring of Kerry and Dingle Peninsula, as well as Killarney National Park. No one was there when we arrived during check-in hours, so we had to wait 15 minutes. The room and bathroom were very small and the shower was weak. WiFi had been upgraded and worked well.

The nicest thing about Gorman’s was Jim. Great host, served up really good breakfasts and tells you everything you need to know the area or even beyond your travel plans. He’s a real gem. Has a great sense of humor too. Otherwise, accommodations are average. Rooms are a bit small. There were two of us. Putting the twin beds together to make a king was a challenge. It was cramped to say the least.
