Another wonderful post via featuring Hidden Ireland member, Collon House.
Collon House, County Louth was the birthplace and lifelong residence of John Foster, last speaker of the Irish House of Commons. As constructed by his father Anthony c.1740, the building was an extended version of the traditional Irish ‘long house’, in this case running two storeys and eighteen bays. It seems to have contained a series of long, low rooms, none very substantial. Many of these survive and testify to the determinedly modest condition of the family’s living conditions: when Anthony Foster invited a cousin to stay around 1766 he warned that a shared room should be expected, presumably due to the number of other guests due at the same time.

Road to Glanleam as beautiful as ever 😎
The sun is out (intermittently), the flowers are in bloom and there is no better time to visit Kilmokea House and Gardens.
When you realise the real luxuries in life are slow mornings, being with the people you love, time, homemade food, learning, quiet moments, good sleep, time in nature, watching the sunset and enjoying a hot cup of coffee.
Clonalis, leave with your cup full….
If ever there was a dream location, this might be it. Stay at Hidden Ireland’s The Castle at Castletownsend for a dreamlike escape.
Sad news from Lough Bawn..:
Verity’s beautiful peacock, who came to the kitchen every morning and evening to be fed, was taken by a fox, his tail feathers left scattered over the lawn 😢
So sorry to hear this Verity.

If for no other reason (of which there are many), Hidden Ireland houses should be visited for their incredible libraries. This photo was taken at Clonalis House, home to a particularly impressive library with a priceless collection of antique books.
Let us know if you’ve had the pleasure of whiling away time in the library of a Hidden Ireland house 📖
