Moy House from the seaside

Originally set in 15 acres of woodland on the River Moy, it was built in the mid 18th century as the holiday home of Sir Augustine Fitzgerald.^[1][2] Later it was sold to Major Studdert, who gave his name to the bridges over the road and the river in the West Clare Railway.^[3] The house was vacant for 10 years, but was purchased by Odran O'Looney who undertook a three-year restoration of the property.^[1]

It was voted Country House of the Year by Georgina Campbell's Ireland in 2003.^[4]
