CONTINUITY
Eleanor Caffrey's home
is today's country house hotel
|
 |
| Beech Hill House in Ardmore, outside Derry, was for many years, Thomas R.'s grandaugher, Eleanor's home. It belonged to Cyril Nicholson, Eleanor's husband. Today it is a hotel, and when I visited in November of 2004, I was given a great welcome by current owner/manager, Patsy Kane. The house, which I had only ever visited as a child is changed, certainly, but still contains the atmosphere which made it a place I loved to be in. The grounds of this welcoming hotel are a haven of peace even though the bustle of Derry city is so near. And the food is wonderful. Thank you Patsy! |
