What happened after

Circular ecolodge in the Sligo Megalithic District, now trades as 'Bru Moytura Ecolodge' - EU Eco-Label certified; official site explicitly states 'formerly The Gyreum'.

What happened on the show

Alex Polizzi visited the Gyreum in County Sligo during series 12, an eco-lodge run by Colum Stapleton and his daughter Finn. A circular ecolodge in the Sligo megalithic district is about as distinctive a property as the show ever tackled, and its unusual concept and setting were the assets the case turned on. The episode summary is brief on the specific faults, so the honest frame is verifiable rather than reconstructed: a one-of-a-kind Irish eco-lodge, run by a father and daughter, that called in the inspector during her twelfth series. Polizzi's task was to help a genuinely unconventional property translate its striking design and location into a trade that could sustain it. Colum Stapleton and his daughter Finn's circular ecolodge aired in June 2016 before its rebrand and EU Eco-Label certification.

After the cameras left

The Gyreum survives and has rebranded, now trading as Bru Moytura Ecolodge, an EU Eco-Label certified circular ecolodge at Castlebaldwin in County Sligo, overlooking Lough Arrow. Its official site explicitly states it was formerly The Gyreum, confirming the match, though the fetched content lacked a live booking calendar to independently prove current trading, so the renamed status is held at medium confidence. The distinctive Irish eco-lodge Polizzi visited appears to have kept going under a new name, leaning into its ecological credentials and its setting in the megalithic landscape.
