Irish Times ‘Country house retreats: Gorgeous guesthouses around Ireland to indulge your inner lord or lady’ by Bernadette Fallon
Our thanks go to Bernadette Fallon for including Ballyvolane House in her travel article for the Irish Times.
“I grew up watching Upstairs Downstairs, fascinated by the fine drawing rooms and the elegantly groomed people who inhabited them. Look at that, five-year-old-me thought – Lord and Lady Bellamy ring a bell and Hudson or Rose or a random footman miraculously appear.

In good company too.
