The
location of Larah House is exceptional with wonderful views to the
Leinster, Wicklow and Blackstairs mountains, where glimpses of Wales can
be seen on a fine day. In the seventies the house became uninhabited and
remained so for a number of years only relatively recently benefiting
from restoration and extension by interior designer Helene Broderick.
