Curraghmore, Historic country house in County Waterford, Ireland.

The residence spans 2,500 acres with gardens, woodlands, and grazing fields, representing the largest private demesne in the country.

The estate dates from 1177 when Henry II granted the land to Sir Roger le Puher following the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland.

The Georgian mansion contains works by artists van Honthorst and Gainsborough, plus a pearl necklace that belonged to Mary Queen of Scots.

Tours operate from May through September on Fridays, Sundays, and Bank Holidays at 11 AM and 2 PM, with a tea room for refreshments.

The estate features King John's Bridge from 1205, Ireland's oldest bridge, and includes a fourteen-mile boundary wall constructed during the famine period.
