Robert & Jill Macauley
A beautiful country farmhouse built in 1841, Cavan House is set just outside the quaint town of Rathfriland, at the foot of the Mourne Mountains; an Area of Outstanding Natural beauty. Fully refurbished in recent years, this Georgian family home provides spacious luxury self catering accommodation with idyllic rural surroundings.
Owned by Robert & Jill Macauley, along with our 4 kids - Sam, Maya, Georgia & Harvey - We also own & run our family dairy farm nearby.
At the foot of the Mourne Mountains in County Down. Just a 15 minute drive to the Beautiful seaside town of Newcastle. Rural setting but closest local supermarket, shops, pubs & restaurants within 1 mile in the hilltop town of Rathfriland. Just 35 miles from Belfast City Centre.
