Early this month, my family and I had the incredible opportunity to stay at Dromana House in Capoquinn, Ireland. Traveling as a family, we had eight in our party which included children and grandparents. We were instantly greeted by Barbara and two of the sweetest black labs a soul could meet. Barbara and her husband, Nick, were warm and welcoming. The place itself far surpassed our every expectations with our four bedrooms, three bathrooms and plenty of living space with breathtaking views of the river, gardens, and landscape out every window. Our amazing hosts allowed our 9 and 11 year old daughters play with and walk the dogs to the beautiful river, taught the girls croquet, offered great conversation to each member of our family, and even invited us to join in with their own visiting family and friends for the evening. Halfway around the world, we felt right at home in Dromana House. Barbara toured us through the vast family history within the walls of the manor, leaving our three generations with some historical knowledge of her predecessors and the ways of the land itself. Our memories of staying in Dromana Manor are the highlight of our trip and will be cherished for years to come.
In every aspect, Domana far exceeded any expectations we arrived with. We look forward to an opportunity to return one day… especially our 9 year old who is still talking of returning when the lab, Pippet has puppies :)
