We're delighted to announce our lucky winners!

The lucky winners of our fantastic competition were Laura Devitt and Eileen Lippert. Laura has won herself a weekend for two at the stunning Maranatha Country House in Co. Cork.
This beautiful, period country house is graced with large, romantic bedrooms, all of which have private bathrooms and overlook the rolling and luscious countryside. Located a stone’s throw from the spectacular Blarney Castle in the quaint village of Blarney, you can stroll through the beautiful private woodlands and meadows or enjoy the many nearby attractions and activities, including close and easy access to over 10 Golf courses!
Eileen has won a fantastic Bucas Power Turnout light rug.
Well done guys!
