"Not Far From Anywhere..."
Castle Durrow Hotel, now one of Ireland's most luxurious Irish Country House Hotels is situated in the midlands of Ireland in the village of Durrow, Co Laois, an hour or so from Dublin on the N8 Dublin-Cork road. 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 breathtaking views of the landscape.Castle Durrow, Country House Hotel 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. The informal mood makes your enjoyment of the Irish Countryside a delight. Our pleasure gardens, river walks and adjoining woodland are terrific for working up your appetite & thirst to be satisfied by our award winning chef David Rouse.
Good food and wines (all sensibly priced) in our magnificent dining rooms is a pleasure for you to enjoy. Romantic four poster beds in our master rooms, sleigh beds in our deluxe rooms or the large deep beds of our oriental rooms guarantee you a luscious sleep at night. Coffee, Tea's and Mineral Waters served with our compliments to our staying guests. (Minerals for the children) We pride ourselves at being family friendly.

Take a well earned break in Irish Heaven at Castle Durrow Country House Hotel in the midlands of Ireland.
