Tralong House restoration a labour of love

THE history of Tralong House reflects the socio-economic history of this country — in two distinct periods. The two-storey farmhouse, which holds a commanding position overlooking Tralong Bay, probably started off as a humble, mud cabin before being aggrandised in the early 1700s. This is based on the semi-archaeological work done during its recent renovation by architect owners Conor Kinsella and Agnieszka Cebo.

Three hundred years later, and in another period of prosperity, the house has been revived. The Kinsella/Cebo children are the first to be born in Tralong House in nigh on a hundred years.
