Italianate style manor offering group accommodation. Lovingly restored elegant 18th century, Italianate style, Irish manor set in 12 acres of woodland and landscaped gardens, overlooking the medieval Castle and Abbey of Kilcrea, in County Cork. The elegant interior is full of surprises. The kitchen is fully equipped for a comfortable and efficient self-catering stay, while the dining room is perfect for a candlelight dinner and family celebrations.
Each room with at least one window facing south gives the house a natural light, bright atmosphere and of course beautiful views. The main house features four bedrooms all with king-size or four-poster beds and large en-suite bathrooms, beautiful views and elegant Edwardian furniture. The explorer room, on the west, contains some memorabilia from the owners' African expeditions. Two bedrooms have an additional single bed and can sleep 3/4 people if needed.
Also available for larger groups are the Garden Rooms and the Butlers Apartment, interconnected on the ground floor of the Main House. They are smaller than the rooms in the main house, but they are bright, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. Access is through their own separate entrance.
The Butler's apartment includes a kitchenette and storage area. The owners, John & Patricia, directly manage the property and will be looking forward to helping you organise a memorable holiday or a more extended stay.
" Have never been in a nicer spot!" We had such an amazing time! will definitely be back next year...

"Irish Christmas" Loved, loved this lodging! Spent Christmas here, all 17 of us were beautifully accommodated. The owners are wonderful and warm hosts. Never intrusive, yet always available. A beautiful Christmas tree awaited us when we arrived. John was a hero rescuing a crow that was trapped in the fireplace of my bedroom. Patricia set a gorgeous Christmas table for our 'big' dinner. You will not be disappointed in any way. I can't recommend it enough.

"Stellar Christmas" We rented the entire house over Christmas for a family group of 17. Have a good look at the photos on the website and then imagine the images to be even better in real life. That is how it is at Farran House - bigger, lovelier, warmer. Thank you, John and Patricia for taking such good care of us. The house is such a credit to you. Read less
