Named after a tribe whom lived their many years ago, Kerry, in Ireland, is as close as you can get to the idealised versions of Ireland seen in films. Misty mountains, rolling hills, rich greenery, and so much more is on the menu when you visit the county. As the county is so huge, you can hire a car in Kerry to open up endless possibilities. You can explore the Ross Castle which is in Killarney or take a trip to see the Kerry Film Festival in Tralee, both just under half an hour away in opposite directions.
Rent a car in Kerry and use the N22 to access the impressive and awe inspiring Killarney National Park, situated a 20 minute drive away. This rugged terrain is a ramblers dream, though less fanatic walkers will enjoy the 25,000 acre expanse of land. You also have a few stunning beaches to visit if you fancy a day relaxing, such as the Inch Beach and the Rossbeigh Beach. Whether the weather is on your side or not, this coastal location is fresh and crisp. If you fancy taking a slightly car journey, you can drive to Valentia Island in just under an hour and a half.
