This is the house of Donal and Peggy O'Callaghan from Macroom in Cork and their Christmas Lights are so famous Marty Morrissey wanted to turn them on!

Check it out on this walk around tour filmed by Dee their daughter:

Donal started it 40 years ago when he put one set of lights around one tree – and his wife thought he was a mental case! Now it's over 300,000 lights!

Donal never reveals his ESB bill – but since he changed to LED it’s more economical! Luckily he is an Electrician.

Every year they have a Switch On Party – music, all the kids get a selection box and there’s a snow machine.

The lights help raise money for a local charity called Macroom Senior Citizens.

Here is Dee chatting to Muireann:

It doesn’t stop outside – they have a Christmas Village inside:

There's a tunnel of lights for a driveway:
