Home description
Elegantly decorated with period furniture, large sofas, polished oak floors and a vine-filled conservatory, all add to the particular charm of this house. Sun pours through the French doors in the interconnecting reception rooms that overlooks the park, the fields and the sea. While unwinding in the cosy living room or in the conservatory, guests can enjoy the spectacular views of the sea lough and the surrounding hills.
From the elegant hall, a lovely curved staircase leads you to the first floor where you will find 3 double bedrooms and a large bathroom. The main bedrooms look right over the sea and are elegantly decorated with material on the walls and period furniture. One of them has a four-poster bed, the other, twin beds. The third, charming bedroom looks over the gardens.
On the ground floor there are two more wood paneled twin bedrooms and two bathrooms each with bath and shower. A laundry room and a ping pong room
The house is surrounded by its own gardens and estate, these provide you with the opportunity for contemplation, reflection and pleasant walks on private pathways that meander through the woods beside the Lough.
The rowing boat is at your disposal to row to the island where you can see the remains of an O’Driscoll castle, picnic on the beach or explore the rapids.
