For generations, one magical place has captured the imagination of many. Its name conjures up a scene so beautiful it takes your breath away, a haven of rest and relaxation, an escape from stress, a place as inspiring as it is spectacular. This place is Parknasilla Resort, Co Kerry.

The resort has a rich heritage dating back to 1692, attracting such literary luminaries as George Bernard Shaw to its beautiful location.
