- dadandcab17 contributionsSatNav took us to the rear of the property which wasn't the greatest start! We visited the property right before the close of the season but even though the gardens weren’t at their best, it was still a great visit. The gardens both formal and walled kitchen gardens are under repair and maintenance which is great to see. There are great views from the back gardens over the house to the ocean and from the front of the house across the lawns to the sea. The stables are also very interesting and photogenic. There aren’t a lot of rooms in the house to see but those that are available are interesting and each has an information leaflet allowing self guiding. Much of the house is off limits for accommodation rentals and private family use.
I would have liked to see a little more about the overall floor plan of the house at the different stages of development, especially as the main staircase has multiple half levels which is unusual.
Definitely worth the entrance fee.Written November 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SARAH DEnnis, Ireland35 contributionsMy husband and I travelled here from Ennis because friends of our had recommended it. We ended up playing both rooms and we really enjoyed them. There were clever challenges, surprises, and witty ideas that we had never seen before. The owners was very accommodating and friendly. The premises was easy to find, right in the town square and the interior was clean and well presented. It was well worth the journey and I will pass on the recommendation.Written March 9, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
