Schoolhouse at Annaghmore
Described as the “Land of Heart’s Desire” in his early poems, County Sligo is depicted by W.B. Yeats as wild and romantic. Part of this beauty, archaeology and folklore is captured in the conservation and restoration of the Schoolhouse at Annaghmore. Schoolhouse at Annaghmore was built in the 1860s for the education of children of the tenants of Annaghmore Estate.
Georgian Townhouse
Georgian Townhouse (No.25 Eustace Street, Dublin) is the ultimate paradox for one staying in Temple Bar in Dublin. There is nowhere more invigorating in Dublin than the Temple Bar quarter, but once you enter this restored Georgian House you step back in time and a sense of calm and timelessness surrounds you.
Merrion Mews
This spacious accommodation is situated above a former coach house and stables and is one of the most significant survivors of an 18th Century Dublin Town House.
Magherintemple Lodge
Magherintemple is interesting not only because of its architectural history but also because of its historical importance as the seat of the Casement family. The Gatelodge was built in the Scottish Baronial style in 1874. The gate lodge provides a fitting entrance to the estate as it echoes the style of the main house. It is of a simple three bay construction with a steeply pitched roof with sawtooth cresting.
Barbican
Romantic in appearance and setting, and approached by a bridge over the Glenarm River, the Barbican comprises of a three-storey main block with a taller turret staircase to the west and a lower, two-storey wing to the east. Its setting and surroundings make it an ideal romantic retreat.
Drum Gate Lodge
Drum Gate Lodge is a unique and pretty two storey gatelodge. The Gothic windows and the doorway are set in harled walls surmounted by a castellated parapet. Over the front door a tiny bull’s eye window lights the landing, to which the stairs wind up from beside the fireplace. Drum is situated on a quiet country road – and its rustic setting makes it an ideal romantic retreat.
Blackhead Lightkeepers Houses
Blackhead Lightkeepers’ Houses are ideally situated on the North Shore of Belfast Lough. The panoramic views from this property are stunning and fill visitors with pure delight and admiration. This magnificent house, in its breathtaking location, is a proud example of Ireland’s maritime heritage. Built in the glory days of Belfast’s shipping, Blackhead Lighthouse remains as impressive and powerful a navigation aid as ever.
Ballealy Cottage
Down a twisty lane, past ancient hedgerows and set in a woodland glen is a fairytale cottage.
