Fantastic house in beautiful rural Ireland
We stayed at Inch House for a weekend with a group of friends. It's a very special place. Well appointed, good beds, great atmosphere and charm. Fantastic place to be with friends or family and more than enough to do in the neighbourhood. Our host Nora was lovely and we had one evening with a catered dinner which was also great.

Exceeded Expectations
Cara, Sinead and the entire family and staff at The Inch House were very hospitable, patient and kind with our large group of 20. We celebrated my 60th birthday and it truly was a dream in the Irish countryside. Thank you so much, I hope some day we can return.

US Bermuda friends
Inch House was enchanting and peaceful for 12 of us. It's spacious and comfortable. It's an old property with creaks and squeaks. But that's the charm. Small laundry, remote location but it's been a great retreat. Hosts and chef incredibly friendly and helpful!!

House in Ireland's Hidden Heartlands
My family, friends and I had a lovely stay at Inch house, warming ourselves by the fire, playing games in the snug, and eating in the formal dining-room. Was a very special way to spend a big birthday. The check-in process was very warm and welcoming, with a lovely full-house tour. We also enjoyed the breakfast bacon baps on the second morning!

About the host
Hosted by Cara
I am a daughter of John & Nora the proprietors of this 18th century Georgian Mansion. We purchased this property back in 1985 and brought it back from the brink of dereliction and have devoted the last 30+ years lovingly restoring it to its original splendor.
Why they chose this property
When my parents went to purchase this house their real interest was in the farm that came with it, but upon viewing it, instantly fell in love with it as we're sure you will too!
What makes this property unique
It’s completely serene here, such a beautiful place to wake up every morning, completely surrounded by lush greenery everywhere and golden corn in the summer, not to mention the rolling hills in the background. There are many walking trails to take in, a unique oratory adjacent to the house ideal for nuptial blessings/vow renewals. There are fairy trails in our extensive gardens and best of all we are centrally located in Ireland to explore the countryside, we are located in the centre of Ireland and just a 2hr drive to the world famous Cliffs of Moher in the West or a 2hr drive to the vibrant capital Dublin in the East. We're a mere five miles from the 2nd largest stadium in the country, Thurles, the home of Gaelic Athletic Association (hurling & Gaelic football) Only 20 minutes from the must see Rock of Cashel to name but one of our many tourist attractions! We can arrange a private chef to cater for your party’s stay as you might like. We have a wealth of knowledge on the area, and can assist with genealogy traces too. The library bar can be fitted with your own keg of Guinness so you can perfect your pint pouring skills while staying at Inch House.
