Description
Sillahertane Estate is nestled in the untouched hills of Irelands south
west; County Kerry. Situated amidst old native woodlands, Sitka spruce
forests & unlimited nature walking terrain, the recently renovated 1870's
two storey home offers an abundance of comforts as well as a 'country
atmosphere'.
Perhaps the best way to see what Sillahertane can offer you is to read the Testimonials.
Inside,
enjoy the large open fire, the cosy range oven, an underfloor heating
system beneath wooden floors, thick traditional walls & picturesque views.
Relax in the sauna or on one the big sofas with a choice of books. You
can even retreat into the study.
Explore the rhododendron jungle & you will probably stumble upon a deer
or go way back in time & marvel at the enormous ruin, previously the estate
house, which tells its own story about Ireland in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Experience
the surrounding 1,500 acre green paradise where the deer & squirrel run
as wild as the rapids, discover waterfalls, swim in the picture perfect
dam, watch the sheep graze & listen or observe an array of rare & native
birds. Two mountain bikes are available to take you on either a casual
road ride or an adventurous mountainous track. A large fenced-off back
garden is a safe haven for children or otherwise any pets. The house is
off the public road with only glimpses seen through the forest. We also
offer two large kennels for those with dogs.
The
kitchen combines excellent appliances with a comfortable warmth. The kitchen
table (made entirely of Yew wood) along with the rest of the furnishings
are all natural timber, much of which is Irish grown. Professional grill,
large range and microwave give you plenty of options for cooking.
Deer stalking, woodcock shooting with dogs and salmon fishing are available
to our guest by arrangement. We also intend to stock the dam with trout,
which will make bringing home the dinner that bit easier.
