Inch school is a listed building and was built by landowner captain Percival Maxwell in 1832 to educate the local primary school children so they did not have to walk the 2.5 miles to Downpatrick. It has been completely modernised, while retaining its essential original features, including high ceilings and large windows. The main living room features a large granite fireplace, with working enclosed fire, and a giant sized antique overmantle mirror, as well as bespoke and antique furnishings.
Had a great 2nights at Inch House. Fab place for a friends reunion (young families),- got great use of the hot tub, sauna and disco/cinema room. Easy check in and out. Would recommend for a group gathering (v comfy beds)!
We had a great stay, the house is beautiful and perfect for big groups. The set up is amazing!!! Wow! Wow! Wow!
Loved it! The renovated school house has a lot of character and charm. The 3 acres with a football pitch and basketball hoop was soooo nice for our group. House was in good condition and everything went well.
