A secret Victorian garden provides the romantic setting for Maple House in County Cork.
The wild gardens with steps down to a fish pond once belonged to the 1862 Roches Royal Hotel. The hotel has vanished and only the old garden known as the "Rockery" with its exotic trees and stone steps remains. The secluded house has views across the Dromgarriff golf course and its own pathway to the shore overlooking Garnish Island.
Maple House is a two storey with a gallery upstairs. Downstairs: Large kitchen/dining room, living room, open fire, bathroom, 2 double bedrooms (1 with bathroom en suite), terrace. Upstairs: Loft Gallery, 1 double bedroom. (Oil system central heating, washing machine/dryer, dishwasher, TV, telephone).
"It has been a pleasure working with you and your company. I really appreciate your professionalism, tourism expertise, and your patience and willingness in helping me enjoy a great vacation. Rest assured, when I visit Ireland again (and I will), you will be the first person I call. I will also refer you to people I know who may travel the same path." -- Mak
