Glenmore Cottage – A Remote Kerry Way Retreat Tucked away in the peaceful valley of Glenmore, just outside Waterville, Glenmore Cottage is a charming old stone farmhouse that offers a truly off-the-grid escape. Surrounded by lakes and hills, and located along a scenic country drive, it’s the ideal retreat for guests seeking nature, quiet, and a break from the modern rush. About 15 minutes from the nearest village, the cottage is a short drive to Hogs Head Golf Club, Waterville Golf Links, Derrynane Beach, and sits directly on the Kerry Way walking trail.
