Where to even start. My friends and I did a road trip across the country and decided to do a night around Birr. Not only is Dave and Irene’s home is so majestic and beautiful but they were the most welcoming people I’ve ever met. The apartment within the mansion is stunning and cozy and Irene keeps everything so clean. The rest of the home should be in a history museum - it’s stunning. Dave and Irene welcomed us with tea, a roaring fire and cookies and they were just so lovely to chat with. The next day, Dave’s tour of the of house and grounds were unbelievable. He showed us all over the grounds, the ruins and let us play with the dogs, kitties and their donkey Eddy! I’ve never met someone who is so passionate about their home and so willing to show others the history. I can’t say enough good things about these people and their beautiful home. Can’t WAIT to come back!
