About Mount Brandon Self Catering Cottages Ireland’s Ancient East
Carmen & Andrea Wenner, two sisters from Germany re-located to Ireland in the late 80’s and have been involved in the tourism industry ever since. In 1998 we saw a gap in the market and decided to build the self-catering holiday cottages in Graiguenamanagh (Ireland’s Ancient East). Mount Brandon Cottages (EIRCODE: R95P046) have been going from strength to strength with many customers returning year after year. In 2013 a purpose-built pottery studio/school completed the offering for our visitors!
