Both properties are set side by side on an elevated setting, with woodland backdrop and breathtaking waterscape views to the north, and south of the famous bonnie banks, lying within the Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Hollybank is a perfect principal home, while the lodge is versatile and provides the opportunity for dedicated multigenerational living space, home office, or income generating self-catered short term holiday accommodation. (Image: STUART RUSSELL PHOTOGRAPHY) Hollybank House is constructed around a steel superstructure and partly clad in Siberian Larch. The positioning of the windows has been carefully conceived to ensure the scenic drama is fully showcased, while internally, engineered timbers, etched glass, mood lighting, and a neutral colour palette create a warm and luxurious ambiance. Hollybank Lodge is also clad in Siberian Larch and has a zinc finish barrel-top roof. The house has a split-level ground floor configuration including an entrance hall leading to three key living areas facing the loch, with doors opening onto a wraparound viewing deck housing a hot tub.

Wicklow property on 1.5 acres with countryside views and garden Shomera ideal for green-fingered buyers
Asking price: €2.5m Agent: Brady & McCarthy Estate Agents (01) 564 0032 Listed as the third finest gardens in the world by National Geographic, the Powerscourt Estate is just a few minutes walk from this detached home, whose grounds are a world of wonder of their own. With its sloping lawns, mature trees, herbaceous borders and sheltered seating areas, Beechwalk's elevated 1.44-acre site is a stunning example of how the Garden County earned its moniker. The property is equally impressive inside. Originally built as a relatively modest bungalow in 1988, it was extended up and out in 2002, creating a new first floor with views over some of Wicklow's most spectacular countryside. With a floor area of 3,100 sq ft, accommodation includes a family room with a Jotul wood-burning stove, a living/dining room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, storage room, guest WC and two ground floor bedrooms – one en suite and one currently used as a home office. Upstairs is the principal bedroom (with walk-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom), two more double bedrooms and a family bathroom with Jacuzzi bath. A big bonus outside is a bespoke Shomera garden room added in 2006, which has a living room, kitchen and double bedroom with en suite. There's parking for several cars in the front driveway, and the home has private pedestrian access to Enniskerry village which is a 10 minute walk away. Located a five minute drive from the Luas stop in Carrickmines, it's about 30 minutes to Dublin city and Glendalough, and 45 minutes to Blessington Lakes.

Big Mamma's Viral Italian Restaurants Expands to Dubai
The European restaurant collective behind London's Gloria and Jacuzzi is preparing to bring its maximalist spin to the UAE. Apr 22, 2025 The Big Mamma Group, the cult-favourite collective behind some of Europe's most photographed restaurants, is making its way to Dubai. Known for their eccentric interiors, oversized pasta dishes, and theatrical service, the group has quietly hinted at their first Middle East opening via a recent job listing for a Head of Communications role based in the UAE. While the group has yet to formally announce the exact location or concept, the move marks Big Mamma's first foray outside of Europe. Founded in Paris, the group now operates 28 restaurants across cities including London, Paris, Madrid, and Milan. In the UK capital, names like Gloria, Jacuzzi, and Ave Mario are as well known for their interiors—think velvet booths, hand-painted tiles, and art-lined ceilings—as they are for their ricotta-stuffed ravioli and Nutella-filled desserts. Dubai's restaurant scene is no stranger to theatrical dining, but Big Mamma's arrival could inject a new wave of high-energy trattoria culture into the city—one where oversized parmesan wheels, cheeky menus, and flamboyant plating are all part of the draw. Whether the Dubai outpost will mimic one of its European siblings or introduce a brand-new concept remains to be seen, but for fans of maximalist Italian dining, the wait has officially begun.
