Castle Durrow celebrates its 300th birthday

27/01/2016

This year marks the 300 year Birthday of Castle Durrow, one of the finest and most luxurious country mansions in the heart of Ireland. To mark this very special occasion Castle Durrow will be hosting many events throughout the year to celebrate. Kicking off the festivities and to welcome the start of summer (fingers crossed!) we will be hosting a lavish garden party filled with entertainment, great food and market stalls… fun for all the family.

In the autumn, when the leaves have changed their colour to flaming orange and our exquisite fire places roar once again, Castle Durrow will host its 300th Birthday Mascarade Ball. This will be an event not to be missed.

About Castle Durrow

One of Ireland’s most luxurious Irish Country House Hotels, Castle Durrow was originally built by Capt. William Flower (later to become Viscount Ashbrook) in 1716 as his family home in the Midlands of Ireland. Its pre Palladian design and formal gardens were the height of fashion in their day and the grey / blue cut stone contrasts with the breath-taking views of the landscape.

Today it has been completely restored and decorated by Peter & Shelly Stokes in a comfortable, relaxing and contemporary style with modern way of life and fashion in mind without overlooking its past.  They run fabulous castle durrow with their family. The informal mood makes your enjoyment of the Irish Countryside a delight.

 

Castle Durrow has won many prestigious awards, including being named in the top 10 best castle hotels in the world by TripAdvisor. We have also been awarded over a dozen best irish restaurant awards thanks to our head chef Graham Gallagher and his talented team.
