Farran House is a large, elegant 18th century, Italianate style, Irish manor house situated in the rolling hills of the Lee valley, overlooking the medieval castle and abbey of Kilcrea.
The house is spectacularly set in 12 acres of mature beech woodland and landscaped gardens. The owners, John & Patricia have carried out a mammoth restoration job and the result is a luxurious, charming manor house, full of character.
The elegant interior is full surprises. Hanging with the old paintings and engravings there are exquisite modern photographic prints.There are interesting antique furnishings throughout the house, including a 1903 bechstein grand piano in the drawing room and a full size billiard table in the billiard room.
All four guestrooms have large bathrooms and beautiful views over the surrounding countryside.
It is a perfect base for exploring counties Cork and Kerry. It is situated 9 miles from Blarney, 38 miles from Killarney and 10 miles from Cork city and airport.
