We enojoyed a recent visit from the Margaret Shirley Group led by Marianne Gorman. A couple wrote to us as follows which makes it all so worthwhile…

Nancy and I truly enjoyed our visit with you and Emily at Lisnavagh on 22 September arranged by our Atlanta friend Margaret Shirley and Irish Guide Marianne Gorman. Attached pix is so you “might remember” which of the 28 we were !

Your Estate is fantastic, beautiful, handsome, impressive and many other superlatives ! Your discussion of your family’s efforts to continue to operate Lisnavagh and bring it into the 21^st Century was most impressive and heartfelt by all of us. We truly pray it goes well for you, Emily and the children; and continues in the Bunbury family for many more centuries! Please do put us on your “news” list and keep us posted as time progresses……

Thank you again for your warm hospitality, and Best, Best wishes to all of you !!

A mad Thursday!

Lisnavagh House & Gardens — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 20:30:21 +0000

Started with a visit from the Margaret Shirley group from the USA led by the wonderful and inspiring Marianne Gorman. We served tea & coffee with scones while William told them the story of Lisnavagh to date. Finished off with a few Bunbury Board purchases tucked under their arms and continued their tour to Borris House. Meanwhile we were entertaining our up and coming bride and groom to be, the lovely Roisin and Declan and family. Poor little Tom was not a happy bunny today – teething I think but hard to tell. Exhausted now! William has made a fine tortilla! I’m lucky!
