Help with Ireland Travel Itinerary for May 2017

I am trying to plan an Ireland southern look driving vacation for my family and need guidance. This is what I have so far:

Day 1 - Arrive in Dublin in the am. Stay overnight in Dublin 2 nights.

Day 3 - Travel from Dublin to Kilkenny

Day 4 - Travel from Kilkenny to Waterford

Day 5 - Travel to Kilarney

Day 6 - Drive the Ring of Kerry and Stay in ??

Day 7 - Travel to Limerick

Day 8 - Travel to Connemara - Stay in the Abbey glen Castle in Connemara

Day 9 - Visit Galway and travel back towards Dublin - Stay ??

Day 10 - AM flight out of Dublin

The sights/activities we are interested in are:
Rock of Cashel
Waterford Factory
Whiskey trail/ Kinsale
Blarney Castle
Ring of Kerry
Cliff of Mohr
Bunratty Castle
Adare Village
Galway
Horseback riding

First - is this too ambitious?

Second - where should we stay in Days 6 and 9?

On Day 10 our plane leaves at noon.

We have reservations for Dublin, Kilkenny, Waterford and the Abbey glen Castle but the rest are B&B's still to be booked.

This is our first trip to Ireland, so any advice to make it an awesome experience is greatly appreciated!!

Duplicate question running in Ireland. To Kimrobi - it is best to only post in one section. That way all of your answers stay in one location and often the answers will build on themselves as posters respond to both your question and other's answers. You might want to delete this question.
