This old school house is located at the foot of the Tim Healy pass and is near the Beara Way. The view from the top is magnificent and is reminiscent of the Alps. The area, called Tuoist, has mountains, lakes, the sea, and forests, and could be described as a holiday paradise.
The towns of Kenmare, Castletownbere and Glengarriff are each about 27km distance.
This quaint two-story hostel is beautifully situated in a quiet rural valley on the South Western shore of Glanmore Lake. Once a boarding school, this charming hostel has four dormitory rooms and has self-catering facilities.
