These are the most Christmassy homes in Ireland

HerFamily

Take pride in decorating your house for Christmas? Do you gather the whole family around to do the honours?

Well, even if you do, we’re not sure whether your abode would match this lot. These are the brightest, most Christmassy homes in Ireland.

The Late Late Show put a call-out for people to send in pictures of their light displays and let’s just say, the nation did not disappoint.

The show received hundreds of entries out of which nine finalists have been selected. Tomorrow night (9.35pm on RTÉ One), one family will be chosen as the winner.

The finalists are: Steve Peck’s house in Ballincollig, Co Cork The Whelan family home in Cabra, Dublin Peggy O’Callaghan’s house in Macroom, Co Cork Babs and Martin Daly’s house in Sallynoggin, south county Dublin Kevin and Lorraine Lynch’s house in Limerick Nigel Kirby’s house in Cork Pamela and Stephen Stroughair’s house in Tallaght, south Dublin Mary Whorriskey’s house in Kerrykeel, Donegal Josie’s house (Kim Hanlon) in Crumlin, south Dublin
