This beautiful home was built in 1998 as a traditional, thatched-roof, Irish cottage and contains all modern amenities.
Each of the bedrooms is en suite, with antique pine furniture. The master bedroom has a queen size bed and the two guest rooms each have twin beds. The master bath has a bathtub and shower.
The Great Room has a two story fireplace, conveniently gas fired. There is a panoramic conservatory with 180 degree views, including Cecil B. Demille sunsets.
The cottage is well planted with a berm to the west, giving privacy and a profusion of flowering plants.
The main immediate attraction to the setting is Doonagore Castle, a round tower built c. 1350 and totally renovated in 1975. It is visible from every seaside window, with unobstructed views.
The cottage is surrounded by grazing cattle, lending another level of tranquility to the idyllic setting.
A circular driveway brings guests close to the front door, should there ever be inclement weather! We joke that our favorite occupation is sitting in the conservatory and watching the weather change.
When the cottage was being built, one of the builders suggested naming the cottage. He said we should name it Draiocht, which means a magical, marvelous place and it is. |
