Charmed by the warmth and hospitality of the Irish on a visit to the Emerald Isle, in the last century,the founder of Macushla House (Gaelic for ‘my beloved’) opened the doors to those seeking thenatural joys of life. The house is surrounded by indigenous bushland and offers privacy and space in an informal atmosphere. Public areas are home to an eclectic celebration of artifacts from countries as far flung as Yemen to Australia. Birdsong and wind chimes accompanied by flowing water from the swimming pool dragon are part of the daily concert.
