Helllooooo guys I am back with another blog post and this one is #informative AF. Honestly my staycay in Killarney was so wholesome
( I literally just booked it again for halloween weekend woooohoo who’s excited to see jerks dressed up as a pumpkin tho or should I said… PUPKIN..) between the Prosecco, my dog sleeping with me and the bikes I am sure I had the best time of my life haha.)
I will give ye a quick review of my experience in Muckross Park Hotel and what we did and then theres a list of yer recommendations below. My first impressions of Muckross Park Hotel was WOW. The hotel is a 5 star castle basically, we stayed in the pet friendly apartment which was made up of 2 huge bedrooms (a double bed and a single in both rooms and an en suite!) with a living room, kitchenette and a little garden patch. The apartment also came with a dog bed and goody bag 🙁 SO CUTE. We went to the lounge for food which was absolutley delish and had the most beautiful breakfast the next morning in the restutant. Myself and my mum also got massages in the Spa and took advantage of the stunning relaxation room and the huge range of different pools and bubbles, indoor and outdoor. I loved our little staycay so much we are going back for my mums birthday / halloween and I am honestly counting down the days, we were blessed with the weather last time so we did take advantage of cycling and walking but even if it was raining the next time I dont mind cuddling up on the sofa having a chillax with my little jenks! Everything was spotless too and social distancing and masks were in place all over the hotel and spa, I hope I covered everything here but if not check out the Muckross website or give them a DM and I am sure they can help you out further.
