Good luck to who ever did.

It looks like space for the sake of space, not for any architectural value. I wouldn't be spending my cash staying in it.

Seems like an obvious use for a giant pretentious house in a place like Sligo, which is never going to be bought as a family home for a local is it? It's vaguely interesting to hear (and to lol at him ever building that house) but hardly shock-worthy.

Only if the bottom of the toilet bowls had pictures of each of their faces. It would make my constitutional very rewarding........

Seems strange to advertise the proximity of these places to the B&B:

"Fr. Peyton Memorial Centre is 45 km from Castledale, while Presbyterian Church is 47 km from the property."

I suppose if the tourists want to see what our churches are like, it would be an advantage!

Yeah I suppose if they want a trip to a few churches around the area, they can plan like going to Carraroe first, then the Presbyterian church and so forth.

Shocking that this beautiful house was originally indirectly created by many gullible people buying Westlife CD's,concert tickets,memorabilia etc:eek:

A massive house and they have V shaped ceilings in the bedrooms.
Zero interest in staying it anyway but I've even less interest in paying top dollar to bang my head off the roof in the morning!

I suspect the "v shaped ceilings" are only on the third floor where they have made full use of all available space under what is a pretty complex roof. If the ceiling was level there would not be room to stand and therefore an enormous wasted area. Admittedly it's not a great picture and assuming that is not the only room being used for b&b, a better room would appeal more to perspective stayers.

I've never been in it but to me it looks like a spectacular house, begrudges are begrudges no matter where they are and who they are talking about.

I had heard that there was a lot of wasted space in the house and seems the rumours were true!

Wouldn't consider staying in it either, it's rather too big to be a b&b in my opinion . It would be better off just to be someones privately owned home or a summer house..
