Description
The Hall Demesne, Mountcharles: A Slice of Irish Heritage Mountcharles is a piece of Ireland’s untamed beauty and illustrious history - a country estate adjoining Donegal Bay that spans 80 acres - mostly ancient woodland - where the echoes of centuries-old stories mingle with the scent of wild Atlantic air. Welcome to The Hall Demesne in Mountcharles, County Donegal: a rare opportunity for discerning buyers, especially Irish or those with Irish roots who seek a tangible connection to their heritage. A Mansion Steeped in History - The Hall was originally built for the influential Conyngham family, whose main seat is the famed Slane Castle in County Meath. The estate dates back to at least 1777, and likely earlier, with records suggesting construction around 1752/3, coinciding with William Conyngham’s elevation to the Irish peerage as Baron Conyngham of Mountcharles. - The Conyngham family’s story is woven into the very fabric of Ireland, with their presence in Donegal dating from the early 1600s Plantation period. The estate’s lands were acquired as early as the 1660s by Sir Albert Conyngham, knighted by Charles II, and the village itself was named Mountcharles in his honour. - The Hall served as the centrepiece of a thriving estate, surrounded by a complex of historic outbuildings, a walled garden, and a grand entrance gateway, all testifying to the scale and prestige of the original demesne. Direct access to Donegal bay is enabled via a small quay and beach that is part of the demesne land. - The Hall is not just a home, but a legacy - an invitation to steward a piece of Irish history and create new memories for generations to come.
