About this property

Almost anything you could dream, you’ll find at this 40 acre estate in Ireland. Here a few dozen of your closest friends and family can join you for a fantastical gathering inside the eclectic mansion or out in the green gardens. Guests will sleep easily in one of three sunny houses, where every bedroom has an en suite bathroom and custom decor.

Here you can choose the venue to fit your party - the intimate dining room, the larger Ballroom, or the grand Garden Room. Or you can entertain groups of 100 outside, where children can frolic on the playground and adults can get some fresh air in the extensive gardens (playing croquet, or walking by the stream). Art, sports, entertainers, and more can all be brought to the estate - just ask, and it can be arranged.

Though this estate feels like a country of its own, it's accessible! Kinsale (2 km) is the nearest town, while Cork International Airport can be reached in a 20 minute drive.

* Please note that there are 2 rental options:



- Manor House only – sleeps 28 with 14 en-suite bedrooms and all the relevant

living and activity rooms.



-The entire Estate – sleeps 44, includes the Manor House as well as the 2 Estate

Cottages – which is a total of 22 en-suite bedrooms and exclusive use of the whole property.

The House is less than 2 kilometres from the outskirts of Kinsale, County Cork, Ireland. Kinsale is frequently referred to as Ireland's Riviera and enjoys a continental ambiance with a wide selection of renowned restaurants, cafes & pubs buzzing with live music, against a background of ancient forts. Visitors are captivated by the town's setting, its long waterfront, narrow streets and slate-clad houses.

Kinsale is a top class centre for many activities including sailing, yachting, deep sea fishing, diving, watersports, windsurfing, horseriding and golf.  There are three golf courses including the world-famous Old Head course.

Kinsale attracts a diverse population from the four corners of the world and is one of the most sought after addresses in Ireland. This popularity is aided by its location - Cork city (40 minutes), Cork International Airport (20 minutes), Cork Railway Station (40 minutes). 

As part of your stay, Oliver's VIP Concierge Team can organise a number of activities at the private estate - either for individuals or variously sized groups. This list of activities is not exhaustive but is meant to give some suggestions as to the type of activities both at the House and in the near vicinity of the estate.

It is possible to bring in certain expertise and activities on site so you can enjoy them in the comfort and privacy of the estate. Some of these include: various health and beauty therapists that can be brought in. Transfers and limousine hire. Helicopter hire. Personalised local or national sightseeing tours. Hot air balloon. Magicians and other Children’s entertainers. Horseriding instructors and horses. Bicycles. Archery. River Kayaking. Football. Croquet. Art classes and pottery (next door is the Kinsale Art and Pottery school). Cookery Classes (either by the resident Chef or a host of national and internationally renowned chefs). Murder Mysteries – either by the day or weekend. Treasure Hunt and a full range of group activities.
