A Gothic manor on 840 acres
Adare Manor is Ireland's great Gothic house: carved stone, long galleries and formal gardens on the edge of one of the country's prettiest villages. Its restaurant holds a Michelin star, the spa is excellent, and its golf course will host the 2027 Ryder Cup. It is where we end journeys through the west of Ireland.
Adare is under an hour from Shannon Airport, so it works well as the first or last stop of an Ireland journey.
Two at least, to enjoy the house, the gardens and the village without rushing.
