Located just over an hour west of Dublin, Ballyfin is a spectacular Regency mansion that has been lovingly handled. After 8 years of painstaking renovation, it opened as a country house hotel in 2011 with only 15 rooms. Situated on a 600 acre estate, it offers a lake for boating, ancient woods, grottoes, follies and landscaping that was laid out in the 18th century in the natural style inspired by ‘Capability’ Brown.
On a trip through Ireland, Ballyfin is a “must stay”. In fact, Ballyfin Demesne is one of the most remarkable hotel properties to be found anywhere today.
