History:
The beautifully sited House was built at about 1720 by Richard Longfield, who
was spurred on to grander things by a sum of money he received for supporting
the British Act of Union. In 1930, Senatior William O' Callaghan bought the
house from the Longfields, and it was his grandson Michael O' Callaghan whom,
with his wife Jane, established the House as a hotel in 1969.
