A spacious retreat in a countryside setting, this property is perfect for larger parties wishing to explore both Ireland and Northern Ireland. Situated 4 miles from Castleblayney and 3.5 miles from Ballybay, the three-bedroom abode sleeps eight guests, making it ideal for large families or groups of friends. With a garden for outdoor living in the summer months and a wood burner for the winter, it offers a warm welcome to guests at any time of year. Venture 15.5 miles to explore the magnificent Ring of Gullion Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty or plan a day trip and head 26.5 miles to the beautiful east coast at Dundalk Bay. Closer to home, walk beside Lough Muckno, 6 miles from the cottage.
Make your way into the cottage to emerge in a light-filled, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with a wooden floor enhancing the warm atmosphere throughout. At one end is the modern kitchen, which is designed to ensure everything you need to help you rustle up meals for your group is within easy reach. The farmhouse-style table is close by in the dining area to make serving up just as simple. At the far end of the space, the lounge section features comfortable seating facing the wood burner. Choose to fire this up in the winter months or to open the French doors to bring in a breeze when the weather is fine. Spend your evenings together watching a film on TV or listening to music as you chat. One of your bedrooms, a double, with an en-suite shower room, is also downstairs. The two remaining bedrooms are both on the first floor. These are family rooms, each with a double bed and a single and one with a walk-in wardrobe. They share the family bathroom, which is also at this level.
Soak up the sunshine out in the lawned garden at this country house. Watch the children on the swings, cook on the BBQ and unwind together on the garden furniture on the patio.
