It is a haven for wildlife including pinemartins, badgers,foxes, stoats, weasels, red squirrels and lots of birds and bats. There are walking paths within the grounds and lots of fauna, plants, trees and flowers in Spring. There is a private covered area under the main house where you can sit and enjoy the tranquility of this naturally beautiful setting. Although quite secluded the property does have neighbours and sound travels in the glen so we do ask guests not to play music, but to come here to enjoy the peace and tranquility, the birds song and the owls hooting at night.
