Manor in a rare setting

WHOEVER buys Cregane Manor will already be familiar with west Cork — and they’ll know just what a rarity they are getting.

That’s the betting among the selling agents of this Co Cork coastal home, on more than 30 acres of woodland privacy, a mile from Rosscarbery and just above the Warren strand, an hour from Cork city and international airport.

Among its period home peers in the country, it has a rare setting — between the public, scenic main west Cork coastal route and the sea, and that siting is so utterly special, it should guarantee a sale.
