Hotel Details

Overview

Hotel Description

This timeless Palladian Manor House is set on 1,100 acres of sweeping Kildare parkland, waiting for you to explore its history and heritage, its nature and wildlife, its flora and fauna. With several food and beverage outlets to choose from, you can feast on fine dining menus curated by Head Chef Adam Nevin in the opulent Morrison Room, Michelin Star restaurant, or enjoy a pint of Guinness and a burger in The Carriage House. Choose from over 100 vintage reserves with a whiskey tasting in the hotel’s Whiskey Library or enjoy a wine tasting experience with cheese and charcuterie board.

Home to two championship courses, Carton House Golf offers exquisite views, impeccably maintained fairways, a convenient location and an exceptional golfing experience. Choose from the classic parkland O’Meara which meanders through ancient woodlands and the banks of the river Rye or play on the soil many a legend has with the challenge of the inland links Montgomerie. Most recently, Carton House was the proud host venue for the KPMG Women’s Irish Open Golf Tournament 2024 and 2025.
