LOCATED IN AN UNSPOILT RURAL SETTING CLOSE TO KILLYKEEN FOREST PARK, MANY LAKES AND RIVERS, 6KM FROM NEAREST VILLAGE BALLINAGH AND 13KM FROM CAVAN TOWN Cloggy House, originally called Riverview (in the townland of Cloggy) was build circa 1780 by the Faris family who farmed all the surrounding land. The Faris family were important producers of flax for the linen industry. In fact, the field at the front of the house was called the `bleaching green` and it was here that the flax was laid out to be bleached. In the early 1970s, the house was purchased by a French couple who used it as a holiday home. They redecorated the house in the rustic style of a French farmhouse, complete with shutters on the outside of all the windows.
