Ballykealey House
Seat of the Lecky family for three centuries, the present house was designed by Thomas A Cobden, built in the 1830s as a wedding present. Gothic arches and Tudor chimney stacks add unique character, and the house is set in well-maintained grounds and promising first impressions are well founded.
Old Presbytery
The Old Presbytery dates back to pre 1750 and is said to have been built by a Spanish merchant. Kinsale was a very important naval town in the 17th & 18th centuries, visited by traders from all over Europe.
Old Bank Town House
Located in the centre of Kinsale, Co Cork, only 20 minutes from Cork City within touching distance of Kinsale’s many famous bars and restaurants, this Georgian building is a perfect blend of comfort, old world charm and character.
Trident Hotel
Spectacular location on the waterfront in Kinsale County Cork, within 5 minutes walk of many shops, bars and restaurants.
Causeway Lodge
Personally run by the owners, Ann and Lyle Taggart, the Causeway Lodge is a highly commended 5 star rated guest house by the Northern Ireland Tourist Board and is also an AA 5 star rated guest house. The Causeway Lodge was also the winner of the “Best Serviced Accommodation” at the 2012 Northern Ireland Tourist Board awards and holds the World Host Recognition for Customer Service.
Skibbereen Famine Graveyard
From newspaper accounts of the time, Skibbereen was depicted as being symbolic of the destitution and hardship caused by the failure of the potato crop. Between 8,000 and 10,000 unidentified souls are buried here in the Famine graveyard at Abbeystrewery near Skibbereen.
Museum at The Mill
Housed within what was originally the wet spinning floor, the museum tells the story of Mossley Mill and the people who worked there from the 1800s through to the mill closure in 1995. The history is presented through a range of interpretative displays including artefacts, images and archival film.
Skibbereen Heritage Centre
This Heritage Centre commemorates the tragic period in the 1840s that is known in Irish History as the Great Hunger. Skibbereen, along with many areas of the west, was very badly affected losing up to a third of its population to hunger, disease and emigration.
Six Mile Water Caravan Park
The Six Mile Water Caravan Park lies on the tranquil and scenic shores of Lough Neagh and is the perfect stop-over point for visitors to Northern Ireland.
Seaview House Hotel
Ideally located in the countryside but just 4 km from Bantry Town and a short-hop to Glengarriff in an area famed for its tranquillity and unique beauty, this lovely country house hotel is charm and character personified and is a welcome retreat for the leisure and business traveller alike.
