The Sanctuary: Secluded 5 Bed Cottage sleeps 11 | House in Corofin
1 Bedroom House in Murroogh, Corofin
THE SANCTUARY - Main House
The Sanctuary estate consists of a renovated 100-year old cottage that is available for Air BnB guests. There are also separate outbuildings (stables) that have been converted into three self-contained studios next door to each other (Studios 1, 2, and 3). Studio 1 is also available for Air BnB guests (please see other listing for The Sanctuary - Studio 1: Self-Catering for 2). The host stays from time to time in Studio 3.
The space
In the main house, there is a kitchen, a dining room (that can accommodate 12 people), a large sitting room with home bar, a master bedroom with ensuite, and a separate guest toilet and shower room on the ground floor. Upstairs, you will find four bedrooms and the main bathroom with shower.
The Sanctuary estate, formerly a donkey sanctuary, sits on an elevated five-acre site in a peaceful, rural area surrounded by Gortacurka (Irish for Field of the Oats) Forestry. It has views in the distance of Mullaghmore Hill, the Burren Hills, Corofin village, Lake Inchiquin, and Ballycullinan Lake. One can relax to the sounds of the birds in the forest, hear the wind in the trees, or listen to the babbling stream that flows through the estate especially after a rain shower. There is very little light pollution here so on a clear night, the stars are quite spectacular.
Other things to note
In the kitchen, there is an oil-fired Aga Cooker with 4 ovens and 3 hot plates with an integrated gas hob and electric oven module that provides heat 24/7. It creates a cosy, warm atmosphere in the kitchen and home and is very welcoming when you return from a day's outing.
Bedroom 1 (downstairs) has an ensuite.
A starter pack of timber logs with kindling and firefighters is available for the wood-burning stove in the large sitting room.
The large sitting room also has a home bar with bar stools for entertaining.
There is a stream flowing through the land so this property would not be suitable for small kids.
As part of the house goes back 100 years, the ground floor isn't on one level. There is a step from the entrance lobby into the kitchen, another step from the kitchen into Bedroom 1 (downstairs), and a small step on the upstairs landing that deserve due care and attention. Your host will point these out to you at check-in.
Ample parking is available on site.
Some of the surrounding land is being landscaped in preparation to plant grass and Irish wildflowers but no work will be done during your stay.
Two outdoor cats live on the estate so unfortunately, pets are not allowed. These cats are not allowed into the house but they may occasionally peep in the windows and doors to say hello to you!
