The Most Magical Place, Mount Ievers Court, Co.Clare, Ireland

One of the most beautiful Georgian houses in Ireland, Mount Ievers Court in Co.Clare has been owned by the Ievers family since the 18th Century. Originally there was a castle on the site, which was replaced with the building we see today in 1737. During the 20th century significant restoration work was carried out by Squadron Leader Norman Lancelot Ievers, an RAF officer who fought in the Battle of Britain. In 1997, the film 'The Serpent's Kiss' starring Ewan McGregor and Richard E. Grant, was shot here exclusively. The house is still lived in by the Ievers family, who are the most accommodating and friendly of people. It was a pleasure and honour to film here.
