There is something wonderfully familiar about autumn in Killarney. The crowds soften, Killarney National Park takes on richer colours, and the crisp Kerry air seems to invite you to slow down, explore and simply enjoy the Kingdom. At The Brehon Hotel & Spa, the team are very fond of this season – and for good reason.
Perfectly placed on Muckross Road, The Brehon is an ideal base for an autumn escape, whether that means a mini break for two, a restorative spa retreat with friends, or an active few days discovering the great outdoors. Muckross House and Gardens, Ross Castle, Torc Waterfall and the Gap of Dunloe are all within easy reach, while Killarney National Park offers endless opportunities for scenic walks and hikes.
Autumn also brings a spectacular display - the National Park is home to Ireland’s only native herd of red deer, with the rutting season making them particularly visible at this time of year.
Back at The Brehon, lazy mornings belong to Anú Spa, an adults-only retreat, where the heated Vitality Suite is made for cooler days. Elemis treatments and Kerry-made Íon Organics add to the indulgence.
For golfers, the new Par 72 suite and TrackMan iO simulator bring world-famous courses indoors. Then, as evening falls, crackling fires, dinner at Danú Restaurant and a nightcap in award-winning Badb Bar complete the perfect autumn day.
Excellent couples' breaks, solo retreats and autumn staycation packages are available at www.thebrehon.com Follow all updates at @thebrehonhotel.
