Hidden Hills Waterville is a family-run farm, passed down through generations. Nestled in the hills overlooking Waterville, farming here has always been about working with nature, not against it. Sinéad and her parents, Timothy and Kitty, have dedicated themselves to managing their farm. What began as a traditional hill farm has slowly evolved into a place where visitors are welcomed into everyday farm life. It’s not a polished tourist attraction — it’s a real working farm. Guests meet the animals, see sheepdog at work, and experience the rural Kerry exactly as it is. Hidden Hills exists to keep traditions alive, connect people with the land, and offer an honest glimpse into life on a Kerry hill farm.
