Baronial touch to lakeside property

THERE’S a subtle connection between Killarney and the Scottish Highlands – both became big tourist destinations in the 19th century and both entertained Queen Victoria.

Mind, she found the Highlands a bit more accessible, but a visit to Balmoral by those familiar with Beauty’s Home would have a predictable response – it’s good, but not quite Killarney.

And by a long way round, this baronial, lakeside house at Dromin, Fossa is this week’s sale offering in the Kingdom.
