Today Temple House looks down on the ruins of its own ancestral dwelling where it sits by the lake. The ruins provide the perfect backdrop for our wedding couples photos or purely for our guests to explore. These photos can't do them justice but they can give you a flavour of their magical quality.

Everywhere we turn is storm damage - so many trees we have lost count. Not easy conditions still for those guys out working to restore power and get life back to ‘normal’. A massive thank you to the ESB guys out there for getting power back last night.

Wow that was a storm - we have no power like a lot of people and no phones but are safe. Lot of damage with lots of trees down and our roof was hit but again we are all safe and our American guests enjoyed candles and fires.

With Storm Eowyn about to hit our shores and predictions of it being the 'worst storm in generations' we hope that all of our Ireland and UK friends and followers stay safe. 💚
We are rolling up our sleeves here to continue to entertain and care for our current lovely guests. Group catering with potentially no power will be interesting! Charcuterie and cheese boards by a roaring fire and candlelight anyone?
