Blissful, beautiful, and indulgent, everything is done seamlessly and with real charm
Hotel review: Could this be Ireland’s most perfect hotel?

Very soon you’ll fall into sync with Big House life and be convinced you actually live like this in the real world.

Location

Ballyfin Demesne is a destination address. A handy hour and 20 minutes drive from Dublin, and easily accessible from the M7, the impressive 614-acre estate sits serenely into the rolling countryside, its house overlooking Ireland’s largest private manmade lake. The fact that it is 10 minutes from Portlaoise is moot; if it were located in the furthest corners of the planet we’d still recommend making your way there just as soon as you can.
