Dorothy and her buddy buffalo, Betsy.


🌟 Her incredible journey so far... 🌟

In 2016, I was thrilled to be able to offer exclusive farm-to-table tours at   Johnny Lynch's amazing water buffalo farm in Kilnamartyra!

As the fourth eldest of eleven O'Sullivan siblings from the Lake Hotel family business in Inchigeela, I've poured my heart into the culinary world, blending my passion for Culinary Arts and Business.
This journey helped make me realise my dream of owning an award-winning restaurant in Clonmel, Co Tipperary, Ireland!

Now, I feel truly blessed to focus on crafting unforgettable and delicious farm tour experiences for everyone living, passing through, or holidaying in this region of the Lee River Valley in Cork!

Join me for exciting Farm/Foodie tours at Johnny Lynch's Water Buffalo Farm in Gaeltacht Mhúscraí, where I share my skills in tour guiding, dairy buffalo farming, animal welfare, and even "cheesy" recipes, all sprinkled with local culture and plenty of laughter.

I can't wait to meet you there!

Slán go fóill/ Bye for now!

Guest Feedback

"We had a fabulous trip yesterday. The girls and I were blown away with your passion and enthusiasm for the enterprise. Such a magnificent business. We had an open evening at the school last night and spoke highly of our field trip to your plant yesterday. Wishing you all the very best of luck in the season ahead. We will organise another visit next year."
