| Accommodates 5 3 bedrooms 2 bathroom This lovely period house overlooks the River
Laune. It is cozy, spacious, beautifully decorated and very
comfortable. We have stayed here and we loved it. One
day, we watched a dramatic rain storm from inside the conservatory and
the
next day we had a picnic in the back garden.

Enter the front door into a center hall that has a delightful mural of bad-weather gear. It's a hint of the charm throughout the house. Turn left to the sitting room. While not large, the room is stylish, warm and very comfortable. It has two garnet red sofas and a big leather easy chair. The fireplace has the original wood mantle. Two pine dressers hold books and family photos. Antiques and personal objects have been chosen with care and good taste. The atmosphere is peaceful and rich and very Irish. | |

Across
the hall is the very nice dining room. The mahogany dining table
seats 6 comfortably. When we were last there, the table was being
refinished, but the chairs you see are for the table. The room
has an antique upright piano, a fireplace and a
collection of personal treasures and art. The floor is ceramic tile and
walls are crisp white. This is a lively and interesting room that
complements the conversations that happen here. |

The kitchen opens onto the large conservatory. It has three comfortable sofas upholstered in beige. There is a gas fireplace, satellite TV, a DVD player, games, toys. The views are of the front garden and the wide sky. |
 |
|
There are two
light and bright bedrooms on the main floor. They are
similar in size and
decor which is traditional and very warm. Each room has a
mahogany king bed covered with custom-made silk quilts. Storage
is excellent and attractive. The curtains and accessories are
perfect choices.
These bedrooms share a newly-remodeled hallway bathroom that has a tub with shower-over-tub. The washer/dryer is in this bathroom. The window looks to the back lawn area. |

Upstairs,
there is a nice, small bedroom that has a single bed covered with
a white duvet. A futon (with a zebra-patterned cover) can open
for an occasional guest. Windows on two sides letting in
plenty of
light. This bedroom is best suited for one adult, but
two children would
be very comfortable here. The narrow bathroom, right across a tiny hall, has a shower stall. |
 |
|
The house is on a large elevated site that is set back
from the road. The house is
surrounded by gardens, tended lawns, trees and mature shrubs. The
back garden has a large stone patio and outdoor furniture. The
wide
lawns are perfect for badminton and croquet or just lying on your back
and counting the stars. There are views of
theMcGillycuddy Reeks, Ireland's largest mountain range.
This house is just outside the terrific village of Killorglin, home of the annual Puck Fair. The village has at least two excellent restaurants, a number of traditional pubs, very good shopping for food and other items. |
