Touring the Ring of Kerry: Stone-Skippers!

This stop is the Village of Waterville.  There is a hotel here, The Butler Arms Hotel, that is owned by the Huggard Family.  If you recall, that is the same family that owns the Lake Hotel where we stayed while in Killarney.  The Huggard family bought the Butler Arms Hotel in 1915.  Charlie Chaplin was a frequent guest at the hotel and a friend of the Huggard Family.  There is a statue of him along the beach path.  The beach is along Ballinskelligs Bay and the Atlantic Ocean.  On the other side of the road is Lough Currane.
