Kells Priory is tucked away in the countryside. Visitors climb up a small hill to see an acre or so of priory ruins laid out at their feet. It’s fascinating to walk where 12th & 13th century monks lived and to imagine what their lives were like. Just beyond the priory is the King’s River, complete with charming bridge and swans.
