Irish Landmark is a non-profit organisation that finds interesting and unusual properties that are in need of conservation, and we give them new life. Since 1992, we’ve been turning historic buildings into truly special self-catering holiday accommodation. Our properties range from lighthouses and schoolhouses, to castles and gate lodges. As an educational charity, our primary aim is to conserve and sustain iconic buildings. That’s why Irish Landmark properties are living buildings, not museum settings. Irish Landmark always respects the history and architectural integrity of the structures we conserve, but we also ensure they have all the contemporary comforts you want in a holiday home. It is essential that you call the House Manager 4 days before your arrival date. The House Manager will advise you about key collection. The House Manager does not live on-site, and there is no reception area at the property.

Once one of a number of bothies stretching along this quiet country lane, Killee Cottage is one of only two thatched cottages remaining. Originally the cottage was probably a lobby entry one or two roomed labourer’s dwelling that was tied to the Montgomery Estate (Field Marshall Montgomery’s family). Later it was extended towards the river to provide a bedroom for the expanding family and farm economy as the cottage became linked to a small farm of approximately 12 acres

You need a car to get to Killee Cottage. It would be preferable to have a car otherwise it will be difficult to get to shops etc.
