Tree planting at Ballyvolane House
We planted 300 trees in recent weeks at Ballyvolane House. The trees were donated by 'Trees on the Land', a charity and not-for-profit project working to establish young native trees across the 32 counties of the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland.
We planted a mix of oak, Scots Pine, alder, birch, hawthorn and apple.
Massive thanks to Trees on the Land and also to the Dream Team of tree-planters, Maia, Oscar, Jamie, Fleur and Dumpling (the terrier).
Tis the Season to be Jolly
As the build-up to Christmas is now in full-swing, we would love to help if you needed gift ideas. And as the new year fast approaches, it's a perfect time to recharge post-Xmas with our 'Ginuary' special offer. Plan a half-term break in February and for those looking to tie the knot in 2020, there is no-where more magical than Ballyvolane House as the setting for your wedding.
Christmas is a time of giving and how lovely would it be to receive a Ballyvolane House Gift Voucher or pick up a bottle of Bertha's Revenge Gin at a stockist near you.
Why not beat the January-blues and book 'Ginuary' at Ballyvolane House.
Escape to the country during Half-Term in February for some family fun.

'Game-bird hunters are wild at heart' by Corinna Hardgrave writing for The Sunday Times
We were delighted to have Corinna Hardgrave down to stay and participate in our first shoot of the 2019/2020 season. She wrote a very fair and balance account of her day out for The Sunday Times. Thank you Corinna!
