Arbutus uneda 'Compacta' is an 8ft variety of Strawberry Tree. The tall one is native to SW Ireland so it might do well for you. It's sold in Ireland by Future Forests, if you're interested. I tried growing one here in east Clare but it's not warm enough - and the soil isn't right for it, either. Plenty of rain though...
Thank you. I'm originally from East Clare! Plenty rain there too.
My suggestions would be Viburnum tinus for its winter flowering, feijoa or myrtle for good appearance year round and flowers, Osmanthus bukwoodii for its early spring flowers and Photinia red robin for interesting leaf colour for much of the year. Bay laurel could be nice as well but they can get big when they mature.
