Irish company selling South African fire boxes (‘boks’ in Afrikaans) for indoor BBQing. Seems to be a thing.

That Kilkenny house is stunning. Though was surprised that for 3.2m all you get is 10 acres of land with it. I doubt the original estate was that small, normally these kinds of houses come with 100 acres+ so Im guessing some previous owner sliced it up and sold most of it off.
Luggala estate in Wicklow has a similar brewing history to the Kilkenny house with the Guinness family living there. It was on the market back in 2017 and it came with 5,000 acres which included a private lake, several mountains and a herd of over 100 wild deer grazing away right outside the house, you could be dining on venison all year round. Denis O'Brien was said to be interested in buying it but then his fortunes turned south. The State had the chance to buy it and make the national park it bordered even bigger but they refused it. Bono also tried to put a consortium to buy it but failed to raise enough money.
In the end a reclusive Italian Count who comes from nobility in MIlan bought it at a knockdown price, said to be around half the asking price of 28 million. He is a hedge fund owner and his other gaff is a 4,500 acre estate in Norfolk.
Count Luca Rinaldo Contardo Padulli di Vighignolo is his name, this is him in his hunting gear
And this is dinner right outside the front of his house

Nice!
If that was my house I'd never sell it! We are moving to Kilkenny, unfortunately our budget doesn't quite stretch to €3.25m

A lovely part of the country, Kilkenny. I don't live there, but often thought I would like to.0 -
