A vacation at Lorum Old Rectory provides a wealth
of possibilities for exploring the region's many Heritage
& Archaeological Sites; Historic Houses & Gardens;
as well as the opportunity to purchase quality crafts from
some of Ireland's best traditional and contemporary Craft
Outlets.
The many, sometimes unwelcome, 'visitors' to Ireland - the
Celts, the Vikings, the Normans and the infamous Cromwell
- landed along the east and south east coasts. Most left their
mark in the pleasing form of Dolmens, Viking Towns and Cities
and Norman Castles. A great number of these ancient sites
have been restored and the substantial ruins of many others
remain.
Traders and merchants have also traversed the waterways of
the Barrow, Nore and Suir for centuries. Located in the Barrow
river valley, in the heart of the south east, Lorum Old Rectory
is within striking distance of many important historic sites,
notable gardens and other places of interest.
