Facilities

The Ballyhooly Old Train House is a 19th century converted railway building, formerly part of the old Great Southern & Western Railway line. The house was tastefully renovated in the 1990s into the fine limestone home we live in today.
The original timber signal box built in 1913 is still in place and railway enthusiasts are welcome to come and view. In keeping with all things vintage, we enjoy showing our guests around our collection of vintage and classic cars.
