Set in 21 acres of woodland and gardens on the Meath-Dublin border, this 18th century mansion has been stylishly developed with the original building, a large 3-storey over basement country house, very much the dominant feature in the overall design of the present 4* hotel.
The fine interior has been carefully restored and the two main reception rooms are impressive in scale and have many original features.
However, most of the accommodation is in the new development, where spacious, high-ceilinged rooms reflect the proportions of the old house and are luxuriously furnished.
A choice of restaurants and bars includes The Ivy fine dining restaurant (where the highly regarded French chef, Jean Michel Chevet has been Executive Head Chef since 2017) , and there are also extensive conference and meeting facilities, a dedicated exhibition complex and Seoid destination spa.
There's an excellent choice of good golfing nearby - the hotel partners Killeen Castle, and there are numerous other courses within a short drive - and it is understandably popular as a wedding venue.
