Farm stay in Gawley's Gate

Lisieux House is surrounded by green fields and an organic vegetable garden on the shore of the largest lake in the British Isles. It is the home of Edwin and Mahvash Graham. We often have young international volunteers who work with us in the garden (WWOOF volunteers). The house is over 200 years old and has had a reputation for hospitality all its life - a reputation we are keen to keep! In good weather guests are welcome to take our kayaks on the lough. The space We have one triple bedroom with ensuite. We also have a twin room that is listed separately. If needed we can put an extra bed in the triple room to accommodate 4 people. Guests have full access to the other parts of the house and are welcome to join us for our normal family activities. We are vegetarian and we have a small organic vegetable garden. Our home is a traditional Irish farmhouse with wood burning stoves that make it cosy in the winter. We are in the middle of the beautiful Irish countryside about 35 minutes from Belfast. Within a mile there is a pub, a restaurant and a bird sanctuary. We are located on the shore of the largest freshwater lake in Britain and Ireland Guest access Guests are free to use our kitchen to prepare meals. Guests also have access to the living room, dining room, and garden. We are happy for guests to arrive any time in the afternoon or evening up to midnight but it is helpful to know in advance the approximate time of arrival.

In the summer we normally have international volunteers staying with us who assist with our small organic garden in a scheme called WWOOF (worldwide opportunities on organic farms).
