Muckross Riding Stables in Killarney

Our first trip we took after arriving back to Ireland was to Muckross Riding Stables B&B in Killarney.  This time we had my Hubby's mom with us (aka Nana).   


The first day we arrived we spent the evening enjoying the views by walking the property.  We also were able to take a peak at all of the animals they had there. 


While eating our very yummy Irish breakfast, the next morning, we were able to enjoy the beautiful serene views of greenery and sheep grazing. 


 They had a play area which was a great relief for our little Tater-Tot

They have a petting zoo and anyone can go to it even if they don't stay at the B&B.
As you can see, this puppy was very excited to see us. 



One of the mornings there we took Tater-Tot out for a quick ride on one of their ponies.  They told us his name was Joey.  He was a wonderfully gentle pony. 

 The kids had a great time playing on the tire swing. 

The Donkey was quite curious as to what we were doing.  He decided to come by and say hi.  We didn't mind a bit.

My two favorite things about this B&B was the animals that walk freely on the property. The horses and donkey were out during the evenings and the sheep roam freely all day and night.  The ponies kept reminding me of the ponies in the book  
Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien.   
My other favorite thing was the scenery.  It was quite lovely.  I could have stayed there much longer had we the time.  This is one B&B we will never forget.  I can truly say it was our favorite place in all of Ireland.
