The Mansion
As we began our novel we used the internet to search for
the perfect mansion and estate to stand in as Lyonsmaine Estate, the ancestral
home of our protagonist.
In our book, the estate is located in the, now, Republic of Ireland. In our research, we happened across Kilmahon House, in County Cork. It was built in 1780.
The three-story house is situated behind a stone wall.
The Celtic Sea can be seen from the top floors. The grounds around the house
are beautifully landscaped.
The video below gave us a tour of the house making it
easy to move our characters around the mansion and the estate grounds. This
worked perfectly.
