Curraghmore House

Such a lovely place!!!

Great place to visit, road is a bit dusty on the drive and some of the buildings need work, however a very impressive estate.

The garden is a nature's treasure. The house was not open for public when I visited.

Beautiful place but not open for tourists right now without prior call. Book a tour on the website. We were unaware as we just saw Google Maps and it didn't show any ticket details and showed the opening times. Sorry about that.

We arrived late today so we did not do a complete tour. We visited the cafe in a converted outhouse. We counted a dozen large spiders on the ceiling. They were high up, we were safe (I have arachnophobia), and they added to the charm of the cafe. A nice cozy fire was in the stove which we took a table beside. We had tea and scones for three. Served on a lovely white tea service. Scones, butter and beautiful strawberry jam. No cream and the scones were big but medium quality. But the jam was delicious and might have been Joan and Bob's Juicy Jam which was on sale in the cafe. Great to see Irish produce being sold and promoted within the cafe. Lovely local pottery also on display and for sale with a 20% discount today. We all agreed the tea was a lovely blend and piping hot and the lovely, friendly hostess offered extra if it was needed. But the large white porcelain teapot had enough for seconds plus more. Credit/debit cards accepted. The toilet was a walk across the courtyard. May not be ideal on a rough, rainy day. Caution with the hot water as it gets extremely hot very fast and could be too hot for some. We will definitely be back again and we also want to visit the gardens. 6 euro per adult. Looking forward to it.
