Killeavy Castle, Gothic mansion at the base of Slieve Gullion, Northern Ireland.

The Grade A listed castle features four prominent towers and Tudor-style windows within a 365-acre estate of mixed farm and woodland.

Built as a farmhouse in 1810, the structure transformed into a castle in 1836 when Powell Foxall commissioned architect George Papworth for Gothic enhancements.

The castle construction incorporated materials from the nearby Clonlum cairn, connecting the structure to local architectural heritage of County Armagh.

Located ten minutes from Newry City and one hour from Belfast and Dublin airports, the castle now functions as a hotel with farm-to-table dining.

The estate maintains its own farm, producing ingredients for the restaurant and selling local products through an on-site shop.

Location: County Armagh
