About Farranfore
Farranfore is a small village in east County Kerry, positioned between Killarney and Tralee and close to Castleisland, with a practical, well-connected character rather than a busy urban feel.

Farranfore National School serves local primary-age children, with secondary schools and further education options available in Killarney, Tralee and Castleisland. Farranfore Train Station is a notable advantage, providing rail connections towards Killarney, Tralee and Mallow, while the N22 and nearby road network make driving straightforward across the county. Local day-to-day facilities include village shops, services and places to eat and drink, with a wider choice of cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and nightlife available in Killarney and Tralee. The Kerry GAA Centre of Excellence is a significant nearby sporting landmark, and 4 Park Business Centre adds a local employment and enterprise presence. Outdoor life is shaped by the surrounding countryside, with beaches, mountain scenery, walking routes and the amenities of Killarney National Park all within a manageable drive.
