Weekend break: Ballygarry House Hotel, Tralee

The Ballygarry House Hotel in Tralee has been named Wedding Venue of the Year. Marjorie Brennan spends a night at the award-winning hotel.

There’s something about Kerry. My heart may belong to Waterford, my mind to Cork but when it comes to my soul, nothing nourishes it more than a trip to the Kingdom.

While I’ve sampled the fine hotels of Killarney, the delights of the Dingle peninsula and the beauty of Ballinskelligs, however, the north Kerry region has remained unexplored territory for me.
