Powerscourt Hotel Resort & SpaÂ
Imagine a stunning estate with views of the Sugar Loaf Mountains, gardens that give way to natural vegetation, and a concierge who is always available. Not to mention an ESPA spa, which truly separates Powerscourt, offering a variety of activities on top of everything else.
A 90-minute drive from Dublin, a family-run country house offers a comfortable ambiance with crackling log fireplaces and typical country furniture. Rathsallagh’s cuisine is central to the experience, obtained seasonally from their farm and the lovely grounds that surround the House, and they have been several winners in our Irish Breakfast Awards. If that isn’t enough to entice you, there is an 18-hole golf course on the premises. While the size of the rooms varies, they are always designed in traditional furniture.
A lovely Victorian farmhouse that offers real hospitality and home amenities, as well as excellent food. After her late mother ran the family farm, Catherine Fulvio, an author and TV chef, took over the B&B. A genuinely excellent spot for leisure, with golf, cookery lessons, and a large breakfast as extra attractions to the beauty of Ballyknocken House.
Ashford Castle, located on a 350-acre estate, is a site of magnificence. If you’re not resting in the new Victorian-style greenhouse, that houses a pool and spa, there are a variety of activities accessible on the gorgeous grounds, such as fishing, horseback riding, and even joining the Irish School of Falconry. There is a lot of fun to be had, making it a great bonding time for friends, families, or even business colleagues.
