Dunkerron Luxury Manor

Dunkerron is a luxury manor house on a 55 acre estate bordering Kenmare Bay. The shore can be reached from the house via a scenic woodland walk. The grounds are home to the ruins of Dunkerron castle and to a spectacular walled garden. The space Dunkerron is a great space for family and friends to relax and enjoy time together. It's superb location allows guests to experience the hustle and bustle of the picturesque town of Kenmare while, at the same time, allows them to unwind in the estate's natural and tranquil beauty. For the curious, the property offers a wealth of space to explore and, in quiet times, one is likely to encounter deer. Dunkerron also features a private bay about 20 minutes walk along our woodland path from the house. The deck overlooking the bay is an ideal location for picnics, perfect for lazy afternoons. The house was built overlooking the ruins of Dunkerron castle, which was destroyed by it's occupants (the O'Sullivan Mór clan) in the mid seventeenth century to avoid its capture by Oliver Cromwell and his army. The house itself has eight luxurious bedrooms and each one with an en-suite bathroom, equipped with a power shower, three of which also include baths. Downstairs, the house boasts a modern, well equipped kitchen, a playroom (with a table tennis and a pool table), a conservatory, a small private bar, a vestibule, a living room (with an antique piano) and a dining room with a large table which seats up to 16. There are four open fireplaces in the house, and plenty of fuel is provided.
