About this property

NEW TO VRBO - 5 Star Unique Irish Country Manor House - Centrally Located

Inch House is a Georgian Country Mansion dating from 1720 and situated on a working farm with wonderful views of the surrounding Tipperary hills.

The house has been lovingly restored to its former glory by the Egan family who purchased the property in 1985 in a state of near dereliction. Guests will enjoy the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in an Ireland of old and enjoy the luxury surrounding of the gentry of the day (Downton abbey style) in this unique Country House.

Inch House boasts six luxury en-suite bedrooms accommodating up to a maximum of 19 guests together with William Morris Style drawing room, Library-Bar where you can pour your own Guinness or Irish Whiskey, Grand dining room, halls, kitchen, a unique little Oratory to the side of the house and extensive gardens, woodlands and fresh spring lake.

There is a country house kitchen for guests to use if they wish to cater for themselves or we can arrange a private chef, on request, to cater for all or some of your stay at an additional cost. We are also happy to assist you in creating your own bespoke itinerary for your unique trip to Ireland. Given our extensive experience in the hospitality sector we would be delighted to assist in making your holiday extra special, arranging tours, transfers or directing you off the beaten track to the places only locals know for an impromptu Irish music session or finding you a five star culinary experience to remember. We also have a lot of experience in assisting the Irish diaspora in tracing their genealogy and Irish Heritage and are happy to assist in this regard if we can.

John & Nora, the proprietors, live on site in another building. They will be there to welcome guests and will be available for advice and information if needed. We aim to make our guests feel as relaxed as possible

For the weeks of Christmas, New Year and Easter, weekly stays will be charged at the high season rate.

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.

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

Host profile image
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.
