Cwm Weeg has a history reaching as far back as the late 15th Century and is amongst the oldest inhabited dwellings in the Kerry/Dolfor area, built between 1460 – 1480. The original dwelling was a cruck framed, late medieval hall house with a two bay hall towards the south west and at least another bay at the north east end of the house. Half the hall had a cellar below which still exists today.

The Battle of the Bindweed
The Battle of the Bindweed

Most of us will have seen some action in the age old war between Bindweed and gardeners. Once established even in a small area of the garden, this highly successful native will become intrenched amongst the roots and clumps of garden plants and is almost as difficult to eradicate as the dreaded Japanese Knotweed.

The Spirit of the Place
The Spirit of the Place

We have all come across places that have a special atmosphere and that seem to lift us out of our every day existence into a different realm.

  • "Beautiful gardens and so glad we journeyed out of our way to visit."

    The hosts were wonderful and we received a warm welcome. They were very informative and willing to spend time talking to us about the creation of the garden, Woodlands and stumpery. A wonderful few hours spent in beautiful surroundings and well worth a visit.

  • "It's a super afternoon out with lovely walks, thoughtful planting and easily accessible even to those of us who are a bit doddery."

    We visited today at the recommendation of a friend and we're so glad we did. It's a super afternoon out with lovely walks, thoughtful planting and easily accessible even to those of us who are a bit doddery. We were made very welcome by the hosts, who advised us what there was to see. Finished off with coffee and excellent home-made cake in the pavilion.
    Weather could have been kinder but this is Britain after all and it didn't spoil our day.
