VIDEO: House of the week: Carrigrohane, Cork €1.5m

Could there be a more appropriate, atmospheric time to launch the sale of Carrigrohane Castle than All Hallows Eve, or Halloween?

Castle outlines - haunted or otherwise - are iconic images at this Samhain festival weekend, steeped in Celtic roots, marking the end of the harvest season and the onset of winter.

And, the crag-top setting of Carrigrohane Castle on a rocky limestone bluff when seen from across the Lee Valley is as dramatic an Irish residence and site as anyone could ask for.
