Welcome to Piper
Cottage self catering holiday accommodation. The cottage is a tastefully
restored old farm cottage, and is the original homestead of the Piper (Pfeiffer)
family, who in 1709 settled in Ireland as one of several hundred Palatine
families from the Rhineland Palatinate (Rheinland Pfalz) region of South
West Germany.
The cottage
is an approved (3 star) Irish Tourist Board accommodation, and is located
in a peaceful rural setting on the original Palatine colony of Killeheen.
Piper Cottage features its traditional front garden with original stone
pier entrance. The grounds include a Palatine well, some of the original
stone farm houses and mature trees. The old Palatine settlement laneway,
which is over one mile in length, makes an enjoyable walkway.
Piper Cottage
presents a unique opportunity for those of Palatine
Ancestry to
holiday on the parent Palatine colony of Killeheen.
