Ballyseede was a dream!
We had a wonderful stay at Ballyseede and will definitely be recommending to everyone we know. Highlight was an unexpected tour through the woods by the little fluffy white dog named Hope. We had two delicious dinners in the pub and the breakfasts were excellent as well. Ballyseede is a perfect stop in between Galway and Cork, and a great stepping off point to explore the Ring of Kerry. Molly the Irish Wolfhound was charming as well!
