Try an oven-ready cottage in a tranquil rural setting

THIS cottage in east Clare offers accommodation and lifestyle. It has a large polytunnel, an organic vegetable garden, an orchard and a small bakery.

Seven years ago, a young German couple renovated and extended it, converted an outhouse into a bakery and started producing their own food. Subsequent owners kept the bakery going, supplying local shops with bread.

Now on the market with Green Valley Properties, the cottage at Glendree, near Feakle, is open to offers of €330,000 and the owners are also willing to sell the bakery equipment. Alternatively, the property could be used as an artist’s or potter’s studio or workshop.
