The Ballycurrin House is a unique place almost "outside this world"; entering the estate feels like going back in time, few decades ago!
We stayed in the Keeper lodge (note various houses are rented on the same estate but there is a lot of privacy), it was very spacious and could easily sleep 6 people (2 double beds in the 2nd bedroom). The lodge has a rustic charm, with an huge old stove heating the common area and a lovely fireplace. As the house is located on the shore of the lake in a very natural and gorgeous environment, you get a lot of small flies and few small spiders to keep you company, but I guess it is part of the charm of the place! The host James is a lovely man. He went over and beyond to make us feel comfortable, he helped us light the peat fire, and even brought a small charcoal BBQ from his own house so we could enjoy the last bits of summer. He recently starting doing Airbnb on the estate and has lots of great ideas for this place, we wish him the very best of luck !
