Places of Interest:
Derrynane Estate, Caherdaniel, Co, Kerry (Between Waterville & Sneem)

This house at Caherdaniel was once the home of Daniel O’Connell, known as the Liberator after his victorious campaign for Catholic freedom in 1829. The house is now a museum containing many fascinating gifts which the Irish people bestowed on O’Connell. If you have an interest in Irish History, you will find this museum a delight. Staigue Fort, Castlecove ( Between Caherdaniel & Sneem ) 4 km from Castlecove on an unclassified road off the main road, is one of the best preserved of all Irish ancient structures. Staigue Fort is said to be over 2500 years old, long before mortar came into use, and the quality of the stonework is very high.

The Staigue Fort Exhibition Centre offers an excellent recreation of its history.
