Hideaways with an angle

IF A holiday home within easy drive of 12 golf courses doesn't fit you to a tee, how about a woodland hideaway by one of western Europe's finest salmon angling rivers?

That's the choice for prospective buyers of three niche holiday home clusters, totalling just 45 houses, set in the mature grounds of fabulous the Mount Falcon estate near Ballina, Co Mayo.

Mount Falcon is an 1870s baronial-style compact castle with 100 acres of grounds and lucrative fishing rights on two miles of the river Moy.
