Sightseeing

The world famous Blarney Castle located 4km from the apartment, where people come to kiss the Blarney Stone - which is said to give those who do the 'gift of the gab' - or the gift of talking/chat, and a big tourist attraction in Blarney village! If you have never visited the Castle, I would highly recommend you do! Definitely a must visit!!
