I understand that the project the Deputy refers to relates to the development of facilities on an estate where the original house on the estate has been retained and restored.

My Department has no funding available at present for such a project, however there may be funding available for rural tourism projects under the draft Rural Development Programme 2007-13, which is at present under discussion with the European Commission. Full details of the funding opportunities under the Programme will be made available when the draft Programme is finalised.
