It doesn't surprise me at all that the Condon family are making such an outstanding contribution to the community, thus ensuring this beautiful piece of land is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike for many years to come. I knew Noel Condon quite well in the late 80's before moving out of the area, and his family were highly regarded in the community with Noel participating in the local cricket team and his mother Cecilia, actively involved with the Catholic Church. I remember the 'old' house as having an air of quaint charm and old worldliness that stood for many a year after the new 'home on the hill' was built, the seemingly endless rolling green hills on the property, 'Bill', his dogs and cattle and of course, Cecilia who made the best sponge cakes on east coast! I wish them all the best and look forward to visiting that part of the country in the near future to enjoy (undoubtedly) one of the most beautiful views the area has left to offer.
