What to look for While visiting Ireland? in Killarney for a week

Greetings Sabine,
Killarney town is very charming & well maintained.The Killarney area is reknown as an area of outstanding natural beauty - lakes and mountains in abundance - Google Killarney & the Ring of Kerry for details.Tourism is very strong in the area so good hotels and guesthouses are in abundance.During your visit, I would definitely recommend visting the local tourist office to get a good idea of the local attractions.You could take a few day trips by coach to get familiar with the beautiful hinterland around Killarney.I would also suggest that you visit the National Park in Killarney ,which is a lovely lakeside parkland & should you wish you can take short boat trips around the lakes from the National Park.
Having said all that & whilst Killarney would be one of the most attractive locations in Ireland in which to relocate ,you cetainly will miss the sunshine of your home State - it does rain quite a bit in Ireland ,even in Summer, but then again ,our Winters can be relatively mild ,weatherwise - It's the rain & moisture that keeps the country green.
Killarney is the 2nd largest town in County Kerry ,with Tralee being the Capital. Killarney would have a good selection of shops & other facilities & great tourist accomodation,although accomodation costs can be a little on the high side & finding accomodation to rent such as houses & apartments could be challenging,as demand is high.
Overall a lovely location but I feel that the weather is going to be a big issue for you ,particularly if you like the sunshine !!
Good luck to you.Perhaps you would post your visiting experience once you have made the visit/returned home.
