DOUCE MOUNTAIN FARM

Accommodation & Food

Douce Mountain Farm guesthouse can comfortably accommodate 9 individual guests in 5 single and 2 double rooms. The guesthouse consists of four parts, the old traditional farmhouse with two extensions all renovated with the traditional features being preserved. In 2008 a new timber-frame extension was added creating a meditation room for up to 15 people, a kitchen, bathroom and a 28 m2 dining/common room with a fireplace. The new extension has been built to ecological standards with the use of organic building components and nontoxic paints, oils and materials.

We put a lot of effort into careful food preparation and thus pay respect to our ingredients as much as to the well-being of our guests. Breakfast usually consists of home-baked whole meal and other breads, a selection of Irish cheeses, a choice of cereals and porridge from a variation of freshly milled grains, with the occasional Full Irish Breakfast , if so desired. Lunch is usually a vegetarian spread with a selection of fresh vegetables and herb teas. Dinner consists of a scrumptious starter, a main course with vegetables, sometimes meat, fresh salads and a deliciously sweet desert.

We use our own products to the largest possible extend. Farm and garden are worked according the principles of bio-dynamic agriculture and are approved organic by the Organic Trust. On our 49 acre farm we have cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, ponies and goats. We grow our own vegetables and fruit mainly in a two polytunnels.

There is no TV or radio in the guesthouse
