Coolatore House
Co Westmeath
Coolatore house is a Victorian country home, historically a place of great intest. Not only is it associated with the hero of Irish history Napper Tandy, but also a pioneer of Irish motoring, Arthur Upton.
Situated on the historically sacred hill Cnoc Aiste Coolatore
house is secluded and yet only an hour from Dublin city centre. Surrounded by
15 acres of mature gardens and part of the famous Grouse Lodge estate this
house is definitely a special place to relax.
Coolatore house has six spacious bedroooms and five WC/Bathrooms, spacious
corridors and landings with vaulted ceilings, a comfortable library, a grand
dining room, cavernous living room and a homely country kitchen complete with
an aga range. In the 1980s it was one of the most sought after and
fashionable places to stay in Ireland, when it was run as a country inn by Ian
Sherrif & Don Hickie. It is now beautifully refurbished by its new owners
and available on self catering or catered basis
The entire house is furnished with a fantastic collection of antiques and the
whole house breaths of history and times past albeit with the warmth and
comfort of modern living.
