"Lakeside Ross Castle dates back to the 15th century, when it was a residence of the O'Donoghue family. It was the last place in Munster to succumb to Cromwell's forces, thanks partly to its cunning spiral staircase, every step of which is a different height in order to break an attacker's stride. The castle is a lovely 2.6km walk or bike ride southwest of the St Mary's Cathedral pedestrian park entrance; you may well spot deer along the way."

"The menu at Mug and Bean is mighty, and there’s everything from smashed avocado on toast with poached eggs to homemade granola. If you plan on tackling Killarney’s Torn Mountain walk or the tough Cardiac Hill, the Creamy Porrige (Chunky rolled oats served with mixed toasted seeds, organic honey or berry compote) is just the job. There’s also a variety of egg dishes and the usual full Irish."
