Ballinskelligs Hotels consist of just the Ballinskelligs Inn. Yet, this small hotel is unexpected. Almost like a retreat, everything you could possibly want is located right here. It is situated right on the beach so in good weather long walks, fishing or swimming can be enjoyed on your doorstep. A restaurant, deli, pub and shop are all located on site. One downside is that only fourteen rooms are available so booking in advance is necessary.
Ballinskelligs village is located on a beautiful bay. Unsurprisingly outdoor activities such as fishing, swimming and boating are hugely popular. For something a little different travel to Skellig Michael, a nearby island.
