In June, we will be traveling from Bunratty to Blarney then over to Killarney Nat'l Park on the same day. We plan to stay in the Killarney area for 2 nights. We plan to do the Ring of Kerry, Gap of Dunlop and the Sheepherding farm demo. Having trouble deciding between Killarney and Kenmore - staying in town or just outside. Are the B&B's really walkable into town? What about the noise? We will have a 9yr old with us. Very touristy is not us. Feeling very confused and pressured because time is short to make reservations. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!

Killarney is larger and more citified - Kenmare is a much smaller town. Both are nice and the area is lovely but, unfortunately, both are very touristy. It is one of the most touristed areas of Ireland for a reason. I'm sure some of the B&B's are in town or walking distance, you'll have to do research on them individually to find that out. I've not stayed in a B&B there.
