The first owner was Cearbhaill O Dalaigh, former Chief Justice and 5th President of Ireland, who used it as his home following his retirement in 1976. It was later purchased as a holiday home by the present owner, and is also the setting for a recently published novel called ‘Rockshore’. It comes with an asking price of €290,000.
