Olive O'Gorman takes meticulous pride in maintaining the Regency-style bedrooms at her luxury farmhouse overlooking the Comeragh and Knockmealdown Mountains. Some wonderful walks fan out around the farm (including one that takes in the local pub!); afterwards, reward yourself with dinner served by candlelight (€35 to €40) in the conservatory. The farm is 4.5km northwest of Ballymacarbry.
