INQUIRE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY |
| THE
MANOR HOUSE Accommodates 12+2 6 bedrooms 5 bathrooms, 1 guest powder room This beautiful Georgian house is set on
twelve lush acres in the rolling
hills of the Lee Valley in West Cork. The
house is welcoming, gracious and architecturally significant. It
has been beautifully restored, yet the creative
owners have been careful to retain the original character and
charm. We have been here several times and it is always a special
event for us. We think that you will feel the same way.
