Conor Pass owner would prefer Government to buy iconic site

Owner, Mike Noonan, said Conor Pass is full of amenities including trails and a diverse ecological system, including a salmon stream which contains old mussels. 

The owner of Conor Pass has said he would prefer the Government to buy the iconic site despite receiving offers “all the time”.

Mike Noonan, a Chicago native, whose grandparents hailed from Galbally in Limerick said the €10m asking price is "not too great" when a 33% capital gains tax is taken into account.
