Description
We are a historic home in rural Co Meath - in Ireland’s Ancient East. The house was built in 1777 and is surrounded by fertile farm land while being only half an hour from Dublin's city centre. It boasts a woodland trail and a romantic garden which is being rediscovered and open to the public on weekends during the Summer months. A French style cafe was added last year in an old coach house within a secluded courtyard. This year we commenced a new Allotment project where local enthusiasts can grow their own vegetables and fruit.
