Shannonview is ideally located in the centre of Ireland in county Tipperary on the banks of the river Shannon. The house is sitting high up on a hill overlooking Lough Derg, the large lake formed by the majestic river. This fantastic location offers guests breathtaking, panoramic 180 degree views from the house and gardens over the lake which are frequently described as the best views around the lake. The house sits peacefully and secure on the hill set back from the road, surrounded by mature gardens which makes it ideal for families with children. In the conservatory to the front overlooking the gardens and the lake guests can enjoy some “chill-time” reading (German and English books supplied). The spacious patio to the front is ideal for a leasurely BBQ in the summer time. The house is pet-friendly without any surcharge and even large dogs have plenty of space in the garden. It is also ideal for anglers with a short walk to the lake. Fishing rods are in the house and there is a bait fridge in the garage and plenty of space to store wet gear. We can also rent out a lake-boat with engine/lifevests for a reasonable daily fee.

The owners are an Irish/German couple and live only minutes away from the property. We are always hands-on, are there to meet and greet our guests and are always only a phone-call away to assist with any queries guests have or help with planning of tours or booking of restaurants/trips.

The house is located in the scenic Shannon area and its central location makes it an ideal base for a number of daytrips to some of the most idyllic locations locally or within a short driving distance (Cliffs of Moher, Rock of Cashel, Limerick, Bunratty Castle, Galway and the Burren area or Connemara). The lake Lough Derg is 5 minutes by foot and the local Kilgarvan Quay harbour area is a scenic, peaceful and idyllic small harbour. Terryglass Village, which is only 10 minutes away by car is a well-known village on the banks of the Shannon with two award-winning pubs offering good food throughout the day, Irish music sessions on weekends and generally a warm welcome to locals and visitors. A lot of activities are available nearby such as waterskiing, kayaking, horseriding, walking, cycling or taking a trip on the lake.
