Description

This cottage is part of the beautiful gardens surrounding the Glenveagh Castle in County Donegal, Ireland. The gardens and castle were left to the Irish nation in 1981 by Henry Plumer McIlhenny of Philadelphia, who had purchased the estate in 1937. Hollywood stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Clark Gable, Charlie Chaplin and Greta Garbo vacationed at the castle whilst McIlhenny owned it. It is now a national park of Ireland.
