Land on the Iveragh Peninsula in Kerry has been in strong demand and achieving strong prices for a number of years for a variety of very particular reasons.

The first is that this is Ireland’s tourism centre. Outside of the capital, nowhere else in Ireland receives so much tourism revenue and enjoys such popularity. It’s an area where the tourism industry has roots that go way back to the era of the first British Victorian tourists, who began by discovering the lakes of Killarney and quickly spread around this wide peninsula.
