For a truly luxurious dining experience, visit Herbert Restaurant. The restaurant epitomizes the style and grandeur of the original house and commands beautiful views over the surrounding landscape. The luxury furnishings, floorings and detailing perfectly complement the exquisite dining experience. Although the decor is opulent, the dress code is smart casual, and the service is warm and friendly. The award-winning Herbert Restaurant serves dinner 7 nights a week from 5.30 pm to 9pm.
Head Chef Eric Kavanagh has created an extensive menu of delicious dishes using ingredients sourced from local farms, markets and producers, down to the garnish used in the drinks. Only the finest ingredients with a local provenance get past the critical eyes of the chef. The hotel has also been awarded a double AA rosette for the excellent quality of the food.
Located in the basement of the hotel, Cellar Bar occupies the original wine cellar of the house. Recently renovated into a stylish and welcoming space with an extensive selection of local beers, spirits, wines and cocktails for you to enjoy. Try the signature cocktail ‘The Herbert’ - a smooth combination of gin, spiced rum, elderflower and fresh lime juice - or enjoy a craft gin or whiskey tasting.
The manor has one of the most impressive parts of Ireland’s natural history at its doorstep. Killarney National Park is the largest and oldest national park in Ireland. The highest mountain range in Ireland, McGillycuddy’s Reeks, are contained within the park, complemented by the world-famous lakes of Killarney. The combination of mountains and valleys, lakes and islands, rivers, waterfalls, bogs and woodlands forges a distinctive landscape, unique to this beautiful region. After a day exploring the surrounding natural beauty, enjoy a scenic 20-minute walk to discover the best restaurants, bars and boutique shopping in Killarney town centre. Killarney is well known as the home of Irish traditional music, and the traditional pubs are lively almost every evening.
Killarney has walks to suit all ages and abilities; from a short scenic stroll through Killarney National Park to exhilarating hikes in the MacGillicuddy Reeks, the highest mountain range in Ireland. Many of the best walks and hikes start from the hotel or bikes are available for guests to borrow if you’d prefer a scenic cycle. We can also provide a picnic from the estate's award-winning restaurant for you to enjoy by the lake. Details of the best hikes in the Killarney area are available for guests or private guides can be arranged through the on-site concierge.
Horseback Riding is a unique way to explore the best of the park and an experience that will stay with you as a treasured memory of your time here.

Trout fishing in Killarney is a popular pastime for both locals and visitors.
