Laharne Lodge with views of Bantry Bay

Built in 1936, the house at pretty Ballylickey was a former family home of singer and teacher Sean Ó Sé, the man who'll always be associated with the classic, rousing song An Puc Ar Buile the mad puc goat.

It was 'the Pucker Ó Sé's' family home in the earlier half of the 1900s, where he grew up with his parents Con and Peg who were both teachers at nearby Coomhola.
