The Swiss Cottage, viewed from the garden, located at Kilcommon near the town of Cahir, County Tipperary, Province of Munster, Republic of Ireland. The cottage was built around 1810 and is a fine example of cottage orné, or ornamental cottage. It was originally part of the estate of Lord and Lady Cahir, and used for entertaining guests. The cottage was probably designed by the architect John Nash, famous for designing many Regency buildings. After some years of neglect, restoration of the cottage started in 1985. The Swiss cottage opened to the public as a historic house museum in 1989.
