CASTLE COOTE HOUSE, ON THE RIVER SUCK

Castlecoote House is an early Georgian Palladian mansion built within the enclosure of the 16th castle which had fallen into ruins, overlooking the beautiful River Suck. . In the basement tower rooms, musket chambers still overlook the entrance steps. It is surrounded by woodland and the pastoral countryside of County Roscommon, Ireland.

Built circa 1690, in 1989 it was destroyed by fire. Since 1997 it has been lovingly restored by some of Ireland's finest craftsmen. The result is a romantic hideaway which combines elegant 18th century architecture, beautiful Georgian features, fine plasterwork ceilings and marble fireplaces with 21st century luxuries - whirlpool spa baths, under floor heating and ISDN lines in every room. Outside are beautifully landscaped grounds. Take a stroll along by the river savoring the tranquillity, or perambulate through the orchard enjoying the rare apple trees, castle ruins and mill race walls. The River Suck is renowned for its coarse and trout fishing. For the more active, there are two tennis courts and a croquet pitch. Walking and horse riding are available locally and there are two 18 hole golf courses nearby.
