Discover the Wonder Just Beyond Our Door
Nestled in one of the world’s most breathtaking lake districts, Killarney is a place of natural wonder — where scenic beauty, rich heritage, and outdoor adventure come together in perfect harmony. Just moments from Earls Court House is the internationally renowned Killarney National Park, a 10,000-hectare haven of mountains, ancient oak woodlands, lakes and waterways, rich wildlife and home of the native red deer.
A visit to the Muckross House, Gardens and Traditional Farms is a must. One of Ireland’s leading stately homes, this magnificent Victorian mansion is sheltered in the heart of the Killarney National Park, on the shores of Muckross Lake. Wander the peaceful trails of Muckross Gardens, where vibrant blooms and tree-lined paths meet timeless views, then step back in time at the Traditional Farms, a living showcase of 1930s rural Kerry life set on 70 scenic acres.
Whether you're walking along serene nature trails, taking a boat trip across the lakes, or exploring nearby castles, abbeys, and ancient ruins, the serenity and charm of Killarney are truly unmatched. Discover Torc Waterfall, Dinis Cottage, the Meeting of the Waters, and Old Weir Bridge — all set against the backdrop of the stunning three Lakes of Killarney and rugged hills of the Killarney National Park. Nearby, Knockreer Gardens, Ross Island, and Innisfallen Island offer tranquil spaces to wander and explore. Don’t miss O’Sullivan’s Cascade, the peaceful Muckross Peninsula, and the panoramic views from Ladies View, to name a few — each offering a different perspective of Killarney’s timeless landscape. And when the evening falls, you're just a short stroll from Killarney town centre, it's lively traditional Irish pubs, restaurants, and the nearby INEC entertainment venue.
Perfectly placed for exploring the southwest of Ireland, Earls Court House offers a relaxed and elegant base for day trips along the Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, and beyond. Most tours can be arranged right at our reception. And for golf enthusiasts, Earls Court House is proud to be one of the top golf hotels in Killarney, with world-renowned courses just a short drive away.
