Description:Welcome to Tir Na N'og, e2809cLand of the forever younge2809d, a luxurious five-bedroom beachfront estate on 10 secluded acres of gardens and walkways. Tir Na Nog includes a spectacular private beach, manicured grounds surrounded by coconut palms, flowers, and fruit trees, and a private tennis court. n nTir Na Noe28099g was built in 2007 by local carpenters and craftsmen under the vision of famed interior decorator David Flint Wood. Decorated in the elegant style of an old Caribbean plantation house, the four separate housing structures allow for bedroom privacy, along with group dining and socializing in the Great Hall and surrounding patios. The estate is rented to only one group at a time. n nTir Na Nog is situated in the most sought-after location on Eleuthera, the Atlantic seashore on the Banks Road, where a select number of estates overlook a beautiful pink-sand beach, only minutes from nearby restaurants and the charming village of Governors Harbour. Stroll the miles-long beach, and stop in at Tippy's restaurant or The Beach House, for a cool drink or a bite to eat. Lounge in the sun in the hammocks strung in the coconut grove, rest in the shade of the beachfront gazebo, or pick fresh fruit from the variety of fruit trees. n nAll bedrooms at Tir Na Nog have TVs with DVD, Ipod sound systems, luxury linens, robes and slippers, air conditioning, and ceiling fans. Other amenities include high-speed wireless internet and landline telephone service in the Great Hall, four bicycles, tennis equipment, snorkeling equipment, beach toys, and more. n nThe buildings on the estate include: n n1.
