NEW TO VRBO - 5 Star Unique Irish Country Manor House - Centrally Located

Inch House is a Georgian Country Mansion dating from 1720 and situated on a working farm with wonderful views of the surrounding Tipperary hills.

The house has been lovingly restored to its former glory by the Egan family who purchased the property in 1985 in a state of near dereliction. Guests will enjoy the unique opportunity to immerse themselves in an Ireland of old and enjoy the luxury surrounding of the gentry of the day (Downton abbey style) in this unique Country House.

Inch House boasts six luxury en-suite bedrooms accommodating up to a maximum of 19 guests together with William Morris Style drawing room, Library-Bar where you can pour your own Guinness or Irish Whiskey, Grand dining room, halls, kitchen, a unique little Oratory to the side of the house and extensive gardens, woodlands and fresh spring lake.

There is a country house kitchen for guests to use if they wish to cater for themselves or we can arrange a private chef, on request, to cater for all or some of your stay at an additional cost. We are also happy to assist you in creating your own bespoke itinerary for your unique trip to Ireland. Given our extensive experience in the hospitality sector we would be delighted to assist in making your holiday extra special, arranging tours, transfers or directing you off the beaten track to the places only locals know for an impromptu Irish music session or finding you a five star culinary experience to remember. We also have a lot of experience in assisting the Irish diaspora in tracing their genealogy and Irish Heritage and are happy to assist in this regard if we can.

John & Nora, the proprietors, live on site in another building. They will be there to welcome guests and will be available for advice and information if needed. We aim to make our guests feel as relaxed as possible

Exceeded Expectations
Cara, Sinead and the entire family and staff at The Inch House were very hospitable, patient and kind with our large group of 20. We celebrated my 60th birthday and it truly was a dream in the Irish countryside. Thank you so much, I hope some day we can return.

Fantastic house in beautiful rural Ireland
We stayed at Inch House for a weekend with a group of friends. It's a very special place. Well appointed, good beds, great atmosphere and charm. Fantastic place to be with friends or family and more than enough to do in the neighbourhood. Our host Nora was lovely and we had one evening with a catered dinner which was also great.

House in Ireland's Hidden Heartlands
My family, friends and I had a lovely stay at Inch house, warming ourselves by the fire, playing games in the snug, and eating in the formal dining-room. Was a very special way to spend a big birthday. The check-in process was very warm and welcoming, with a lovely full-house tour. We also enjoyed the breakfast bacon baps on the second morning!

Inch House was enchanting and peaceful for 12 of us. It's spacious and comfortable. It's an old property with creaks and squeaks. But that's the charm. Small laundry, remote location but it's been a great retreat. Hosts and chef incredibly friendly and helpful!!
